There is a lot wrong in this image but i will say that it's really good you are trying to do more dynamic an complex poses.

I reccomend watching scyras "coil technique" video as it helped me break down foreshorterning alot easier.

https://youtu.be/eJWLaDSNBAI

Also pick up Micheal hamptons book for help with your anatomy, your chest and torso anatomy is pretty ok in this but the arms are lacking.

Also observe any artist you like and take aspects you like about them to apply it to your style and work, you can learn a lot from just looking and observing.
Good luck :)

Look at yourself in the mirror and try to hold your arms and hands like she is doing.
Spend some time studying the neck, trapezius, collar bone, calf, and forearm in particular. I assume you made the hands huge on purpose, but if not, holy shit dude those are enormous.

When you're adding clothing on top of a body, make sure it follos the curves of the body, or else it will flatten out the whole image.

Do your best to see this one through, but on the next drawing you make, start with more careful construction.

>> No.4759511

I was this post:
>>4759510

Those are the main things you should focus on for now. There are other issues, but in this early stage of your learning, anatomy and construction are paramount.

>>4759523
To be frank, there is not really enough that is right in this image to warrant a redline. Redlining serves to fix anatomical and perspective oversights, but redlining this would more or less amount to a complete redraw. Again, look in a mirror and try to do that with your arm. Pay close attention to the left arm, as that one needs to have its pose completely redrawn.
Another thing to think about is the cape in the second image: it's coming off of her waist as if it's a skirt, but that's not how capes work. It should be draped around her collarbone and over her trapezius.

It isn't. Her right arm is much too long, particularly the forearm. The left upper arm is also too short, even if it's supposed to be foreshortened. The pelvis is much, much too small. The lower left leg is too short, even if it's supposed to be foreshortened.

if you are looking for advice, which after all the rambling on the thread i'm not sure

i would recommend you too look at drawings from the author of BNHA
IMO the guy is pretty good at drawing hands, and if you are going for big hands you can check how he does hands inside gloves

but more important, finish the drawings as good as you are able at the moment and then check whats wrong.
move on to another drawing and improve on your weak areas

if you don't know whats wrong... train your eye or ask

There's a difference between not being able to fix something, and not even fucking trying. I pointed out that the left arm was posed in an impossible way. I gave him a tip for how he could see this himself, and advised that he fix it. He did not change one single pixel of the drawing of the left arm.
He is lazy.

This thread was made so that OP can get asspats and encouragement rather than critique. This is why he didn't post his drawing in /beg/, and this is why he did not attempt to apply or respond to any of the critique he was given until he was called out for it.

>>4759160
Study both anatomy and gesture in tandem. You've got a few errors, but nothing you can't fix with practice. A few things I'm noticing.
>Breasts have weight. It can be difficult to perceive this weight if you don't know the perspective of the rib cage. As an easy way to remember, "breast fall down and out". They will be pulled by the weight of the fat very slightly below the same nipple height used for men, and will be pulled out slightly if the arms are raised due to how the breasts sit of the pectoralis. I find tear drops to be the easiest gesture shape for breasts, since they have both a direction and, hence, gestural quality to them. In short, BREASTS WILL NEVER TOUCH IN THE MIDDLE OF THEY AREN'T HELD UP BY A BRA OR SUPPORT.
>Study the shoulder girdle structure. The scapula and clavicles make a very strong shelf form that can be handled with perspective. Studying it will allow you to do a few things, including make convincing neck placements, do correct deltoid attachment, and have implicit knowledge of the full range of motion for the humerus.
>Your lack of fundumentals on the legs (with regard to the knees specifically) is giving your legs drawings a "stacked sausage" quality. The legs have dominant gestures that overpower the smaller muscle forms. These gestures generally follow an elongated "S" when seen from the side, and two stacked semicircles seen from the front (eg, the round side points outward for both the quads and calves, while the flat side are inward for both segments as well). Using these shapes to design your body parts while still considering perspective and form will give your designs a more consistent and "thoughtful" quality, even if you still have holes in your anatomy knowledge, which can only be filled with practice. Also, I find the knee joint to be one of the hardest joints to learn due to the patella being the only joint that functions as a DETATCHED levered hinge. Without it, bipedals would exert far more energy to stand up.
