Description
So, revisiting the basics, this time with different proportion exercises.it's incredible the amount of bad habits you'll find when facing your skills against solid Theory and technique. At least that's what's happening to me and it's really inspiring me to keep going.
I'm working with the book "Figure Drawing for all it's worth" by the truly amazing Andrew Loomis.
If anyone is interested in Andrew Loomis' books, just send me a note
I don't think there's need to tag this as mature content, btw.

I've always wanted to draw people so I finally decided to tackle it by using Loomis' book as well. However, it's slow going. If you have any advise for a noob it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks dude
Yeah well, I think I'm posting this stuff here 50% to help me keep going with it and 50% to help others and maybe inspire them a bit and although I tried hard to achieve the right proportions so this could be good source material, I think that there are a few sections that need more work in order to be solid reference, especially with women.

Very usefull practice, but I tink, wiman hip should be a little bit more than theys shoulders
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I agree. I need to practice a lot more with female proportions, including heads but that's a whole other problem
Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate it

Awesome! That's really cool! ^^ Practice is always good. :3
And that guy is awesome!!

Thanks! Yeah, practice is something so good for us that it should be done everyday, but didn't give it the proper time until now. This time I will sow the habit no matter how hard it gets.
I think that before, my main problem was that I demanded a lot from myself, thus I always ended frustrated with my progress. The important thing is to set reasonable goals and be persistent.
Oh and indeed, Loomis is THE MAN!!!

You're welcome! And, you know, I've always been really hard on myself too. I'm my own worst critic. DX But yes, practicing from life is always important. :3
Wooo! LOOOOMIS!

Muchas gracias, carnal, pero aun me falta mucho por dominarlo a la perfecciΓ³n, sobre todo las mujeres.
Los maestros dicen que la meta es hacer las cosas en pocos trazos, sin el menor esfuerzo, y ffft.. aun me falta para eso...
Pero ahi voy, lo importante es poner metas razonables y ser constante

Tienes mucha razΓ³n, aunque no olvides que nadie te puede imponer tΓ©cnicas, ya que perderΓas tu estilo, un mtro de dibujo me lo hizo saber jaja, ya que hay muchos que dibujan muy bn, pero no tienen una tΓ©cnica tan sacada de libros xD!! jajaj
