This course is an introduction to figure construction. I go through the basics of drawing lines, building basic shapes, and using those tools to create complex anatomical forms.
Hello Michael. Your anatomy book is one of my most valuable and cherished resources! This course covers figure construction, do you ever plan on releasing an anatomy course that goes into more depth? Thank you kindly in advance :)

Thank you so much :)
To tell you the truth, I'm not sure. No immediate plans.
Only 33% through this course and look at that!
I think that perspective and scale is still my biggest weakness, but I suspect that just needs a little bit of time to work intuitively and fast.

Excellent!
So out of curiosity do we have to turn these in? If so is that here?

The course is self directed so the assignments are optional and up to you. However, if you do upload anything I'm happy to write some feedback.
Mr Hampton, during your lectures, when you say to make the "pelvis and the ribcage kiss" in order to prevent spacing them too far apart (a common newbie mistake), you mean to do that during the landmark stage right? During your perspective/box construction stage, I notice you place them apart again in their anatomically correct positions,so I wanted to give myself a more clear mental instruction from your suggestion

I actually mean to do it during the shapes/tilts stage. When you add the landmarks and convert the shapes to boxes it actually kinda spaces them for you.
I did a critique video very recently that might be useful. If I remember correctly, I might show or describe your question. Anyways, here it is, hope it helps.

I just finished proportions. And I think the best thing about these lectures is the reminder to take it slow, focus on patience and control, especially through the foundational exercises. And the concept of not drawing a "thing" but drawing a drawing kind of blew may mind. Although it did make sense in the things I struggled to draw.
I’ve been drawing for awhile now and the urge to fast forward through the courses is strong but the slow methodical, and logical (not boring) pace of the lectures fill in holes I didn’t even know existed in my figure design. Not to mention, it made some

Hey, thanks so much for that feedback. I'm so happy to hear that you're finding them useful so far.
Just bought the course. Amazing content and knowledge. Will you be doing one for Anatomy muscles on top of these structures? As well as Clothing? I think you're the best there is at teaching these 3 subjects. Thank you!

Thanks so much! Happy to hear you're finding it useful. I absolutely would make sure my drawing would be to this stage prior to adding anatomy and drapery. And yes, I'm hoping to add more content.
Just starting with the course of @Michael Hampton and I am super hyped. But I started to notice that some videos seem to be out of order (Exercises/Assignments) and Part5-Landmarks plays Part 4 again? Maybe sb from the Proko-Team can assist?

So sorry about that, Johannes. We'll get it looked at asap
Here I am ready for the grind, tanking all the frustration of my skill not yet being where I want it to be. Lets go Mr Hampton!

Haha. Well, I hope the video is useful too. Thank you
I have the the book and will definitely be buying this course too, I also have the proko beginners course too.

Awesome! Hope it helps!
Hello! I also have a pdf of your book and am excited to learn from you. This is my first Proko course so I'm new to how the lessons work. When does the course start?

The course releases on Feb 8 :)
Thank you so much for this course!! I've been following along with the book and youtube videos so far. I had one question if that's ok. If the next step is connecting the muscles / anatomy to our construction drawing, could this be a possible idea for a future course? Thank you again for everything!

Yes! Most definitely. And, I would love to do a course on anatomy but nothing is yet filmed. Hopefully in the future!
