added comment inUpper Back Assignment Examples - Draw Models
Asked for help
Felt compelled to post my assignments for feedback for once. Only felt the need for one major redraw this time which is a record low. Makes me question if I'm getting careless with my self critique and the application of Stan's critique or if I'm just that much better compared to the beginning of the course. While uploading this I spotted some smaller mistakes like certain angles, ratios and forgotten Trap tendons but I'm not sure if it's worth redrawing all of it or if it's enough to move on to the neck muscles?
(I've seen this question asked a bunch by Sir Jesper Axelsson in the comments so I'll answer in advance. My primary end goal is to learn anatomy to make realistic digital 3D characters for games. My secondary goal is to develop foundational skills like proportions, line control, general understanding and analysis, etc, all to boost my 3D art. This course has been my only venture in the realm of 2D lol)

I know this is a bit late, but I also commonly get bogged down in striving for perfection that I tend to lose motivation later down the line, because I never feel ‘good enough’ to move on and that causes this vicious circle of repeating things all too often. So now I strive to get something out of a certain study or drawing and once I have, I’ll move on, despite the piece’s imperfections. That way I’m learning, making progress and giving that which was learned time to set in. You’d be surprised with how taking time off something in order to focus your attention elsewhere helps in cementing your studies on that something. I still struggle from time to time, but hopefully this helps, if I made myself any clear.

Quick question. Does anyone know what movement causes a posterior tilt of the scapula? The other scapulothoracic movements are clear, but this one still eludes me somewhat.

Does anyone happen to know what this protrusion could be. By following the contour of the rib cage, it can’t in any way be an extension of that form. I have absolutely no clue what it could be. Any help or hunches would be much obliged.

One thing that's really starting to annoy me is how there's almost nothing discussing the shape of the ellipses/ovals that form the heads side planes, which is the part of the Loomis Method that I feel I'm having the most trouble with....
Whether it's here, or anywhere else on the internet, I can never find anything beyond: "we slice off the sides of sphere"
I know I’m a little late, but Stan has a video about ellipses on youtube. I also struggle the most with this; however, this is the closest I came to addressing that issue. Hope it helps.
