I'd love critique on my 30 second gesture poses. I've been approaching them iteratively, sketching each twice with a slightly different approach. I still feel as though I am seeing too much contour, and I especially struggled with torsos that are twisted such that they're completely or nearly profile.

He does show a couple examples in his videos of torsos that don't show their center line, profile like you said or where the centerline is obscured. I noticed in these he focused more on drawing the gesture of the ribcage. One thing that I'm seeing in these is that your centerline seems like it's always in the center of the left & right torso lines, despite it being offcenter in almost all of the reference poses. Adjusting how much space is between the center line & the edges of the body can be helpful to get the perspective looking a bit more accurate.

maybe also try getting more from instead of just spaghetti, and combining that with more intentional lineweight to show force also helps a lot i think

i think the second and forth are unclear as to what direction the person is facing. i see them facing to the front of the camera, but they are not. i like your clean dynamic lines with matching proportions i lot though.

I recently got a digital tablet to work on and have gotten back into this course in an effort to finally learn figure drawing and general concept artwork. Any feedback on my first attempts here would be great. I wanted to take an iterative approach to each pose and try to adjust my first attempts with a new approach.

Asked for help
My first attempts at 30 second sketches (probably more like 45) in digital format. I got the course a while back and fell out of practice, but I really want to commit to learning now. Any critique is welcome! I wanted to do an iterative approach and learn a little bit each pose then re-sketch.
