Description I know this is a bit strange, and if your seeing this from Exclusive Manga, then YOUR wondering why its in Tutorials.

Well the only reason im even posting this is because i think this will be helpful to other artists.

This is a sketch of the Simplified Skeleton from the book Simplified Anatomy For The Comic Book Artist, by Chris Hart, and i thought it would be wrong if i didnt share at least this.

This is sooooo much easier to work with in drawing characters then anything i have ever used, and im gonna try like hell to make a video tutorial to go with this as soon as i get good enough with it.

I labeled each part, so you can understand it more. You can download it if you want. And use it as reference.

For making this fit ANY character, all you do is adjust the size and shapes of the parts as you need, so if its a big, muscle character, the Rib Cage should be bigger, as should the pelvis, and they should be a little closer together, and the head should be a bit larger, and should be much closer to the shoulders.

For female characters, just make the rib cage and limbs skinnier, and the head more round on top, coming to a slight angle at the bottom, but with more smooth curve to it.

I hope this is useful to someone lol

I have trouble not just drawing the skeleton in a good pose, but also drawing over the skeleton too, it hardly come out good. I want to learn how to draw the male and female body from scratch using the skeleton, also add on the fact that I'm also learning how to draw hands, different facial expression, drawing from different angles just so much stuff I want to get better at, but I'm still going to practice with all of it, just don't know where to start.
