What are the purpose of drawing poses? Poses are creates to help to create a story, show an emotion, and idea! The most expressive parts of the body are the face and hands, but that doesn't mean we should forget about rest of the body. Here I've taken a couple of different emotions and incorporated them into my idea of what they might look like.
1. Love 2. Dramatic Falling 3.Disgust 4.Excited 5.Depression 6.Anger 7.Determination. But this is jsut one possible pose for each emotion. Each of these emotions have infinate possible poses that could all communicate just as well.

When creating comics, (I often fail at this), acting is important. You are trying to show the character doing, saying, or acting in a certain way. Subtle hints often get lost, and so the acting has to be dramatic! the more dramatic a character is, the stronger they communicate with the audiance. Think about how in B movies, Actors overly exaggerate everything. That is how comics are supposed to be created. Does this mean every scene should be overly exaggerated? No, but this is a good way to start.

I think I might start making pose sets that express a single emotion, that way there is a broad range of possible examples for that single emotion.

Traditionally drawn, Inked over in Photoshop

BTW this is a Free2Use Base. If you want to use any of these poses Go right on ahead! This is available for download. If you do use it please have a link to this in the description. Something that says
