Hello, Patrick, I posted a question related to your post you made 10 month ago "I'm brainstorming at the moment to produce courses, movies, and books on drawing and painting..." (can't paste the link) a while ago, not sure that you saw it. Could you please take a look when you have time? I have a couple of questions/thoughts. Thank you!
actually, here's the question itself "Dear Patrick, big fan, thank you for showing the figure drawing process in such a detailed and full of thoughts process. This is very helpful for drawing natural real alive human beings. I have two questions here: 1. The courses of "Fantasy Female" here on Proko, is it a combination of your original movies? - I have almost the full collection of your original movies, and was wondering if this course is different or has more information? 2. The course on character design (I personally find it very unique and so much different from many other character design courses), - will this course have an evolution with the series of how to show interaction of the characters. - You have it partially covered in your figure drawing courses when you describe the thought process of composition and reference models placement. Do you think you will in some time in the future cover how imaginary characters can interact, how to make a composition, how to use life reference models for the designed characters get together in an illustration or a painting? Sorry for the long message, and thank you in advance for your response.".
I'm brainstorming at the moment to produce courses, movies, and books on drawing and painting the figure, particularly fantasy figures. Please feel free to suggest what you would like to see from me here, maybe a Q&A for instance.

Asked for help
Here are some of my assignment drawings. Struggling a bit with the proportions on these. Any feedback is greatly appreciated
Nice work on depicting muscles! I can see you have some drawings with proportions almost accurate, and some drawings are off. I believe the outcome depends on your approach. When you think about muscles first, you lose proportions. I would always start with the gesture lines and big shapes. Think which way the body bends, if for shortening is happening. And keep in mind, majority of the reference photos make image look flatter than the real object, so bend lines more if it makes sense. Than some landmarks, head marks that look close to the reference in size. After that I would think how robobeans are twisted and go from there. I think Stan and Marshal in one of the gesture drawings review talk about why proportions may be not as on the reference.
