Description I've been doing several studies for the Brewing Trouble, but this one needs special feedback

This started as a size chart for all the nations involved in the story, but somewhere along the way it turned out into a proportions study (something I really need to practice on too). And since I was using realism, sticking an anime face would look really weird, so this ended being a realistic version of England

Please point me out if I did anything wrong. I could really use tips on proper anatomy

hehehee~! me gusta~!

right arm is a tad too long, his legs are a tad too long, bellybutton a tad too high, his eyes a tad too crossed, feet a tad too flat (unless you wanted him to have flat feet?), clavicles a tad to angled

looks nice~!

Funny thing is I used a body proportions chart as a reference (with all the head sizes and such! [link] )

XD i find those things to be quite useless if you want "perfection". I suggest staring at people plus using a body chart. It works miracles. (Not really... it just improves the experience and drawing overall in my opinion)

Birvan In reply to TheCheshirePanda [2012-04-27 02:33:53 +0000 UTC]

If I wanted "perfection" I would have traced it. I just needed a general idea of the proportions
But yeah, photo reference works a lot better. Problem is finding the pose you need > >

sorry... >3< was being very OCD and high on caffeine... (its a constant problem for me nowdays.... )

What works even better than photos is having a pose-slave. Grab a random person and have them pose for you. Now THAT works wonders.

TheCheshirePanda In reply to Birvan [2012-04-29 01:54:14 +0000 UTC]

yeah... especially since you live in a different country... let's just say that its a poor excuse for a beach with water like milky coffee and a whole army of morbidly obese people and germs.
