Attempt after watching the demonstration but without copying exactly. I'm doing a more gestural version then adding cross contours on it as I have no idea how to draw such complicated subject from imagination atm
I had the same problem when I stared too, but after a while I could actually start figuring it out on my own! Sometimes it helps to re-do a lesson a bit later if you had a lot of trouble with it the first time around.

Hi @anthonychoy, have you taken the figure drawing course? If you haven´t go check it out! There you´ll learn all the drawing skills you need to tackle the anatomy course, like simplifying!
Here´s a little story from my life:
A few years ago I dreamed of being able to draw Tarzan. The Disney movie had been my favorite since I was a baby. I really wanted to learn anatomy, I found proko´s course, but realized that I was lacking the fundamentals.
It was difficult to realize that, because it felt like my goal of being able to draw Tarzan was miles away, but I decided to take the figure drawing course anyway. I´m so glad I did! It gave me exactly what I wanted!; being able to draw gestural 3-dimensional figures, from imagination. I learned the most important part of drawing Tarzan!
And to my suprise my figures felt quite accurate eventhough I didn´t know anatomy. It was like I had learned the pattern of the human body. I realized that rather than thinking of the figure drawing course being a obstacle in front of the anatomy course, it is more like the Anatomy 1 course.
I hope this help :)

I'm new to anatomy. No idea how the exercises would help my pencil and paper figure drawings yet... hope it would make sense
