I recommend taking a look through Steven Zapata's videos on youtube. I was about to give up and those videos reminded me of the joy of art.

These look nice! but I think they're more of figure drawings than mannequizations. I think you're too focused on the contours and trying to draw the entire man than building him out of simple blocks and cylinders. More like a human shaped structure than an actual human. Remember that these are supposed to be a !simplified! foundation that you can draw a figure over, not a finished figure drawing. I hope this is helpful! Otherwise these are pretty good drawings and it looks like your making a lot of progress!

6 of my 2min sketches done digitally. I'm not sure if I might be chicken scratching too much in these.
Not bad! The poses are clear. I think you're right about the line quality and I also think that your focusing a little too much on the contour rather than the larger pose.
I would recommend removing the time limit and imposing a line limit, say 7. Then really, look at the pose and PLAN each line using a C, S or I line. When you have only 7 or so lines to describe a pose, you have to show larger portions of the body with each line which helps with the flow of the pose and the line quality in one exercise. I'm working on my line quality and this helped me make good progress, so I hope this helps! Looking good so far, keep it up!

Hi, the problem I think your having is that the radius is crossing the ulna in your drawing but it wouldn't be doing that in reality. his arm is supinated in this position, not pronated. imagine him lowering his forearm to a 90 degree angle to his upper arm and you can see his palm would be upwards. hope this helps!
