Something I've got to solve tonight, figuring out the right (imo) anatomy after much efforts... And felt like it would be worth sharing it here, in a step-by-step sequence, to show how this kind of improvised drawings can happen.

So yes, it only started as a lonely knee, there, because I sometimes enjoy drawing legs in less obvious angles and PoV's (1) .... But then, you see, when that silly initial part was done, I couldn't help my challenge-obsessive mind from thinking further into the problem, and so got myself into the task of solving the rest of her body in a most relaxed and natural way... By now, most of you know that I like my ladies' postures to look natural. And that can often be quite difficult. Anyway (2) was done, too. And I was going to just clean it up, and drop it there, telling myself it was enough of that.... but... wait, what if (3)? .... then (4) and (5).... So gentle looking, wahhhhhh. Β΄///`

haha... so, yeah, I'm glad I ever had this compulsive kind of feeling with me, this need, to bring each of my sketches to a completion, to see what are they hiding. Feels like I can bring unsuspected little characters to life, even if only for a brief instant, for one only drawing, one solely glance. Like an unlooked for visitor. : )

Yeaahh.... I've been in a very unusual mood lately.
Anyway, thanks for reading, if you did.

Oh, hey and no, my little friends and occasional visitors, this is not a base, or anything like that. Actually, I think I'll finish this drawing tomorrow -into some decent level of finishing-ness, at least.

This is great, I can't wait till I improve enough to think my drawings are cute. I like how much you enjoyed creating her.

Neat breakdown! I find it admirable that you do purposely challenge yourself, regardless of how the exercises turn out. It's a good reminder of just how much effort goes into continually improving as an artist.

IN A WORLD where "finishing-ness" is a word...
...ONE ARTIST will turn a standard leg exercise into a cute girl character...
...coming to theaters near you....
FEGUIMEL DRAWS A GIRL
THE MOVIE.

Just felt like saying all that.

wow muy interesante, creo que lo que mas me gusta ver de cualquier ilustrador es sus bocetos, aprecio mejor las cosas cuando estΓ‘n en proceso, yo aun estoy tratando de lograr que mis chicas se ven naturales por algΓΊn oscuro motivo me suelen quedar muy rigidas, supongo que es cosa de practica :/ me gusta mucho tu estilo de hacer la anatomΓ­a femenina. sigue asΓ­!

Me alegro que te parezca ΓΊtil.
Si si, no es facil hacer poses naturales, sino todo lo contrario. Pero lo bueno es que resulta mas facil encontrar referencias en la vida diaria para este tipo de cosas.
Gracias!

very cute! there's just something that feels a bit weird about the hand/arm that reaches under the leg but i'm not quite sure what.

I feel like it would look better if her hand was on her ankle instead...

feguimel In reply to saizan [2012-09-16 07:22:48 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I think the position of her hand there, partially supporting the weight of her body over that side, is a bit too complicated. I believe it's mostly correct, but I can tell it isn't very comfortable (for her).

Thanks for sharing your opinion ^^

Actually, i think i see what it is. Her arm looks like if it were behind her but her hand looks from aside. I dunno if u get what i mean... OTL..
