From memory, different angle (top view), and my own generic proportions.
i worked on foreshortening more than what felt right since i often don’t foreshorten enough.
some errors here and there:
the torso should be more tilted and create a small crunch on the guy’s left side where his prayer hand is.
his lifted foot should be way more downward pointing like a dancer’s.
i put the thumb on wrong side of his prayer hand, definitely struggled on that hand.
the wooden log should be tilted downward which would have occurred if I tilted the torso correctly in the first place.
overally, not too shabby of an an attempt in my opinion.
LESSON NOTES
To improve figure drawing there's three visual memory exercises you can use. First, we observe a pose, memorize it, put away the reference, and draw it from memory. Next, we draw the pose from reference, then put it away and redraw it from a different angle. Finally, we study the pose and then draw it from a new angle with altered proportions. These exercises help us understand forms, enhance visual memory, and improve our ability to design figures from imagination. Regular practice is key to getting better at this skill.

In this last visual memory demo, I show 3 memory games with figures for level 2 students. First, a mannequinized figure from memory, then from a different angle, and finally with altered proportions.
These exercises boost visual memory and design skills, which are essential for drawing dynamic figures from imagination.
Here are my attempts for this assignment. I honestly loved this assignment, because I’m enrolling into the figure drawing fundamentals course. I numbered the reference I used and which game I did for the visual memory. I also added a reference I used because I really like the pose which I plan to use for my original character.
P.S ignore the feet studies, I was studying how to draw feet which wasn’t part of this assignment lol.
