Looking mainly for the landmarks, and on more muscular people I try and add the anatomy but I don't know anatomy at all. Start with gesture so I can still get a more dynamic pose instead of a stiff one. Takes me a bit to actually see what I'm looking for on the body but I try to make every line with intention instead of just chicken scratching. Really want to control my lines. These took me 20 mins total mainly cause I was lost trying to find the landmarks.
any tips would be very helpful.
Hi Jonathan, your line quality is definitely good in this assignment! It definitely takes a while to learn to observe where the landmarks are, keep it up!
Regarding the scapula, since the person's arms are raising up, you should stretch them more to the side, as the muscles follow the arm movement. Try searching "scapula when arm is raising" on google for reference.

Hi, these some of my two minute gesture drawings. I found myself on some more challenging poses to go over the time by 15-30 seconds but most were kept within the 2 mins. My proportions are off especially around the legs I tend to make them wider than needed. Any tips on what I can improve on and how to get my proportions under control are appreciated.

Hi everyone.
Sorry for poor quality photos.
So these are my gesture drawing. I timed myself 1 min each but spent around 15 seconds just looking at the reference picture. Any tips would be helpful as I don't know how to improve by myself.
For now I would say the best advice is: just make more of them! :) Take 15 minutes everyday and compare the ones you did at the beginning of the week with the ones at the end. Maybe post them here so we could have a look at a larger number of examples? Good luck!
