Hi @Matthew Nicholas Sandoval, really nice drawings! Isn't it amazing how you can feel the motion. Congrats on discovering that! The gesture drawings look good, especially the first page; they feel more wild and energetic than the ones in the second image. I think you would appreciate watching and following along Glenn Vilppu in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOtVUHgJqQk&t=136s . The approach is different from Stan's and I think it will influence you positively. I tried doing a quicksketch of the Anthony pose. Spontaneously I gave the arm an s-curve. If I would try to explain why, I think I would say it's because there is a c-curve flow coming from the shoulder. To specify the arm's motion we would have to counter that with an opposite curve. And to specify the hand's motion we would have to counter the arm curve. This results in an s-curve. To decide the gesture line for the arms it helps to come from the shoulders. Depending on the level of detail you want to show, you either continue the shoulder curve, or give the arm new curves that counter and create assymetry. If you want to overthink it :) Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!

These are good. I think taking the time to really analyze the model can help, but we want to train the eye to be quick, efficient, and to be able to see past the detail. I have two suggestions: Practice a lot and try using single lines for the s curves and c curves. I am also studying gesture, and man it is a pain, but we must put in the work in order to improve. Keep it up, and don't quit. Also, check out Stan's critique video with Marshall Vandruff. They give a lot of good pointers, and it's worth studying. Hope this helps. https://www.proko.com/s/RLdK
