thread revival go


work in progress
gesture practice helps so much holy shit

[SIFTER]

Does this pose look stiff?

[Waters]

Very, but it also seems out of proportion, mostly around the torso/shoulders area. Try making the legs a bit longer and use more 3d shapes, to help you understand where the figure is actually facing.

Does this pose look stiff?

the way you draw your lines is incredibly counter productive and contributes greatly to the stiffness of your poses
your poses aren't going to flow and look dynamic until your lines themselves look fluent as opposed to scratchy and jagged, which just means you need to work on your line confidence

this video explains what i'm on about

also if you want to work on the stiffness of your poses, do some 30-60 second gestures and work on seeing the motion of the pose as opposed to the contours and shapes, which is what you've trained yourself to look at
work on really exaggerating and emphasising the motions and gestures of the pose
i'd actually really recommend anyone who doesn't already do this to start working on this because it's a fundamental concept that really makes a difference in your figure drawing

[SIFTER]

Keep in mind that This is a mouse drawing, not hand drawing. So drawing lines with an unstable mouse is PRETTY challenging. But I get the point. I have to keep the figure in motion. And if I draw a line through the figure, it'd be a straight line. The reason why my pose is boring is because it isn't lively and thus boring.

And if I draw a line through the figure, it'd be a straight line.

i'm not actually sure what you mean by this

if you're talking about drawing a line through a figure from head to toe, the only thing that comes to mind is the line signifying the figure's balance and that should create something of an S-curve as opposed to a straight line
