Anatomy block-out practice
3yr
David Schneider
Working on my anatomy skills, mainly to be able to place characters and creatures (with modified anatomy) in my scenes in a believable way. So I'm not aiming for a fine art approach, more like a block-out I can understand and draw from imagination, to build up upon. Sources of wisdom: Proko's take on the Loomis head: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC2ZppKHCqU Marc Brunet's methodology of constructing the body: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUKd7BF8yC0 Any feedback welcome! :)

Hey David, I like what your doing, especially the figures. My suggestion is to find opportunities to pump up the gesture in your figures. You can give the whole body a cool gesture, and give the individual limbs a gesture also. It will give your figures a nice, fluid feel and will keep them from looking stiff. I hope its okay, I took a couple of your figures and did a draw over so you could see what I mean. Hope this helps :)

Hey pifalo! Thanks! That's a great visualization. I wanted to focus on studying the musculature, but you're totally right and I'll try to incorporate it in the next steps! :)
