this is something i did when i was at a few different camps lately...this is also. basically, the first post on gaia that im doing so please bear with me sweatdrop the backdrop is supposed to be that shes looking out to a sunset on the sea from a rock in the water...problem is the anatomy of it all (ive cut off the rest of the page cause its just white paper at the moment). redlines would be loved as well as other c&c.

updated image is below because i cant put it here for some reason (sorry)

Doesn't look like much is wrong with it, looks good imo.
The problems I do see though, are the shoulders, they look a bit strange.
The right arm and leg seem a bit short too.
And that you need to mark the knees and elbows, unless you're ust getting the overall shape right first.
Apart from that, it looks good.

The picture isn't horrible, you just need to finish it a little more. The only problems that I can see is that the way the arms connects with the body. Also the hands are a little weird(hands are always so hard to draw sweatdrop ) The line underneath her arm, should be broght in a little bit more also. Just keep practicing you'll get right soon enough biggrin

Paul: im not entirely sure what you mean by mark, but right now im only trying for the shape
Loki: this is about the 3rd picture ive tried for that has hands...let alone a full body XD

I think this is definitely moving in the right direction, but more so with the legs; they are more shapely and look more accurate by way of anatomy. I think looking at some anatomy books and really studying the curves of the muscles and joints of the body will help you. The arms are nice but too smooth and...rubbery....looking...for lack of a better word. xp Sorry, not trying to be brutal...

*I would red-line for you but I lack the proper equipment ><*

But anyways...here is a site that may help with different anatomy (if you are interested...(I take no credit for it, of course, a friend just sent me a link to it) sweatdrop I have been doing a few studies from it and I really love it. Hope it helps...(though I haven't looked for hand studies but they may have hands too)

well the shoulders need to be more realistic looking and the thighs when compared to each other and the rest of the body need work to.

By mark, I meant putting markings where the elbows and knees were, but I didn't know if you were just trying to get the shape done without details. sweatdrop
