It's time for some critiques! Join me as I look though student submissions for the gesture portion of this course and give feedback on what is working and what can be improved.

Thanks Brent!! Great critique, with many many helpful advices! I will use J curve much more from now on and pay attention to the lateral lines. And by the way... yes, the V line I use to show the attachment of the pelvis and the legs is from Patrick Jones. I will try to be more cautious with that in future. Thanks again Maestro!

Thank you very much for your the critique Brent. This is certainly a watch and there's a lot of insight to take in. While I do have questions regarding my peer's submissions I'll keep them to myself for now as they seem to be using some more advanced techniques that we're yet to tackle. I have to ask however, about the critiques to my submissions: 1. How do I accurately measure the size of of a rib cage? I know this can vary wildly depending on the individual but I've always struggled to draw the torso "peanut" favoring instead the torso "cube". I'd like to be able to keep up with the material and while I've been doing the peanuts daily I still feel that I go at it with way too much guesswork. 2. You mention that my work is stylized. I try my best to take everything you teach and use it so the stylization likely comes from a lack of skill or knowledge on my part. If you could please elaborate on this? I do want to draw comics but these past 3 years I've done my best to go the long way around and learn how to do the hard stuff before I can go play. I am glad that as I shoot for the stars I'm hitting the moon which was my initial goal but it does sadden me that there's a constant "I'll never go beyond" feeling to every course that I take. Case in point, I was studying Marco Sordi's torsos that he submitted for review as I though they looked fantastic and try as I might, I'm never getting the same result. This extends to almost every peer that I study on this and other courses. Again thank you very much Brent for your time, I'm looking forward to continuing this course and further receiving your insight.
