Hello again all, been a while since I have posted anything... but here I am again. I've been working on this one a little while, had some problems with it, put it away for a few days, came back today and solved a lot of my issues. (I think XD) I cleaned it up a bit in photoshop, but the big thing I need is critiqueing. I would really really really appreciate a redline, but just saying stuff helps too. My goal with this one is to get a near professional as I can. Not the most interesting pose or anything, but it is a different pose then I've drawn before so it's helped me learn some stuff.

Here is the less cleaned up version: (much larger/not rescaled, tis why it's only a link.)

I removed the parts I know I need to redo (such as the furthest arm, and the lower legs.) I really would appreciate any help. Thanks!

very interesting drawing .. i like the pose biggrin
but the to the left of the pic seems to have muscle nd the arm on the right does not i think you need to make them match also adding to that is that the arm on the right just "randomly" pulls in right before the elbow you have to curve it inward the upperarm needs to be more softer
i can do a redline but i can't right now whee so i'll come back nd EDIT with it later
nd the wall? that she's holding on to i tihnk it'd be better if it were railing to a balcony or something that has oppenings rather than a wall but that's just a random opinion lol
3nodding but good luck its lookin' pretty good

4laugh Believe it or not, the reference image I used was of a person holding onto a railing kind of thing. (Unfortunately for me, they were wearing a lot of thick layered baggy clothes, so it's kinda hard to get physical shape that way.)

^____^ And I definately like the ghostly figure idea. I may end up coloring and everything... and I know for sure I haven't done a ghostly figure before. Could be fun.

i also thought that instead of just standing, she could be stepping up onto the ledge in between the rails .. i used the cover photo of the book "Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent" by Beth Moore (just in case lol) ok so here are the redlines:

redline-original pose
redline- different pose w/ref
