added comment inStep by Step Workflow for Figures
I find myself struggling with gestures (getting them in the "right" place for correct proportions) and my figures always look strange. I have watched quite a few videos/classes - yours and others - thinking that if I keep learning it might click. Now I'm thinking maybe I need to be practicing more on my own - just trying to draw figures from references for a few days instead of just trying to "actively learn"
Does anyone have experience with this kind of thing or thoughts? I might be too academically minded for my own good and skipping over the practice in favour of lessons.

Mixing it up and following your intuition is best. You know how to learn best for yourself. Watching me or others do it may be helpful to a point then you have to take over.

Just got your class a an early Christmas present. What would be the best way to approach your class? Do you recommend using pen or pencil in my sketchbook? Thank you for keeping the cost manageable.
I'm just another student but I'd say to work on your fundamental shapes and line making (because we all need to work on those haha) and that pencil is probably best (mid-hardness like a 2B or HB nothing too expensive!) Just my $0.02! Good luck!

I'm relatively new to sketching but have been trying to tackle figure drawing for a few months to middling results. I'm excited for this course because I find your book to be the best that I've come across!
