You're doing something wrong, a boring pose can still tell a story regardless if no action is actually taking place, think of the weight. Where's the center of gravity? Which leg has the most weight on it?

Hmmmm, they say the best way to make a good drawing is to tell a story with it.

Sifter, a lot of the times in your animations, your poses aren't exaggerated enough so they seem quite sluggish and slow. This seems to be the case with your drawings too. Honestly, draw a simple stickman with proper proportions in a cool exaggerated pose, if you need to get some reference poses. Then start fleshing out the stickman with a rib cage, hips, and circles for the primary muscles of the character. Then start drawing outlines and you will get there man :)
I just find it easy to sketch stickmen first to get my base pose looking right.

It pretty much put personality into your figure/drawing/painting. What is the person thinking, define their thoughts and current disposition with they're body language, with the flow of their figure and such.

Stickmen with shoulders I hope.

And a pelvis, that's important too. I'd say more so.

http://artbattle.ca/This is pretty interesting. I'd say it's questionable how the competitive spirit works in painting, but I see no harm done in this. If I happened to live in Canada I'd definitely participate.

I downloaded a drawing app, but I find it really hard to really draw on my iPhone, especially when working near the boundaries of the screen it's near impossible. So I decided to go with a more simple style when drawing with it.

Nice job on that. Idk if it's an eraser mark or what, but right behind your neck there is this darker shading that looks out of place. Maybe that was intentional, I really don't know. It looks good though.

Is there a better way to return to DD than posting pictures instead of animations? The answer is no.
a couple of drawings for my school newspaper.

That's really cool man, the top one is really well drawn, but the one on the bottom has a very cool post-impressionistic vibe on it.

wow shell, those look fantastic! I love that little blurry feel on the first one, and that artistic touch in the second one`!
