Here are the first 5 done by me. I feel like I'm getting the hang of this though I still struggle to see when my gesture line ends up being a silhouette or form line.
I'm also thinking of ditching the side of the pencil grip when doing these. It sometimes works but it didn't convince me.

While I haven't gotten to the point where I create entire scenarios in my head I do often think to myself "what is < insert body part> doing here?" whenever I need to pose thing from imagination.

Here are the 10 from imagination.
A few observations:
3- I was out of ideas on what to do with the hands and legs to make them feel more gestural.
6- Something felt off with this one and after looking at it later I'm guessing the head's too big making the body feel small?
8- I really wanted to do a roundhouse kick but the movement of the body just wasn't clear in my head. There's twist in the upper torso as well as the lower torso and the legs may be at completely different angles, not only that but I had no idea on what to do with the arms. Guess I'll have to research it.
Coming up with poses is pretty hard but I felt like I could make better poses since I'm not limiting myself to capture a specific one. I liked the mental gymnastics of trying to understand how the body moves for a specific pose.

11 more from me. Using reference. Considering some of the submissions I seem to really be making this more complicated than it seems, everything seems quite a bit stiffer than everyone else's. I'll be posting the 10 from imagination during the weekend.

Another few attempts from me.
Still feel like I'm not quite there yet.
Model from the Back Anatomy (Female) - Reference Pack by Satine Zillah.

Here's a preliminary attempt from my part.
The references are the images in the downloads section. I want to know if I got this right or if I'm completely off before tackling the 10 master gesture studies and imagination ones.
Cheers.
Hey Pedro,
Great work! I can see you leaning into flow in particular poses and it increased as you went on like in 4 and 5. Keep going on these and focus on that flow, and avoid adding too many lumps and bumps and really try to restrict yourself to fewer lines even if you can't close the shapes. Shapes can always go on top of the gesture.

I'm struggling to understand how to find the forms for the creases.

I've been on a terrible slum recently, decided to come back to some older study material.
How did I do?
A4 printer paper and a caran d'ache technalo B. The model is from Satine's Female back anatomy pack.

Such a good idea to revisit old lessons. This is a great drawing -- the curve of the spine down to the sacrum is shown very beautifully here. The legs in this difficult pose may be a bit easier to place by using the envelop technique, like Stan's done in the demo. There are rhythms throughout that you can use to keep proportion. This is a great reference image!!

Completely slept on this one. I wanted to do all of the thumbnails but it flew right by me.
Here's the only one that I managed, it's rushed but I think it came out ok.
