Lol the real irony lies with the fact that crossed arms are such a common fallback in order to avoid drawing hands....
YOU MUST CHOOSE THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS
BUT THEN AGAIN YOU MAKE EVERYTHING LOOK EASY, SO IN YOUR CASE IT'S LIKE CHOOSING BETWEEN A CINNAMON JELLYBEAN AND ANOTHER CINNAMON JELLYBEAN.

 Because jellybeans are a well known symbol for small evils, y'know. *flips table*

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has a hard time with it too.  I'm able to draw it, but it looks so unnatural.

oh, I like the emotions. ...If it were me, I'd probably have only drawn non-emotional arm crosses, and then it'd just look stupid. ^_^" Thinking of the emotion behind a pose is pretty important...

A good eye for detail. Funny how you chose the 3 faces: left angry, middle bitter, right happy.

I noticed for a moment that the models are all guys, then after practicing for a sec I realized it's harder to cross your arms when you got some giant c-cup titties in the way.

But crossed arms really are a pain, thanks so much for your help!

C's are far from giant.

Really? Maybe I just feel big because other kids at school are tiny and I'm the chubby kid. Either way they get in the way when I'm doin stuff.

Or maybe you haven't measured correctly. Check out reddit.com/abrathatfits. They have a measurement guide there that's a lot more accurate than how we've generally been taught to do it.

Hey! these are awesome! I have a request though; what do you think about doing one for busty women? Because like.. How do I even?... I have trouble doing it, let alone drawing it! X'D

Kibbitzer In reply to LeesiGalaxy [2015-12-15 08:40:47 +0000 UTC]

I love drawing crossed arms ^^ But not because I'm good at them, I just like the pose. The drawings always turn out awkward, so thank you very much for this, it will definitely be useful! As your references always are

no but seriously when you have a character who's kinda a shut in and has his arms crossed all the time you tend to draw a lot of headshots.

Kibbitzer In reply to RedRivest101 [2015-12-14 23:18:57 +0000 UTC]

yes it's a pain in the aaaass! and it's boring to look around
for that fucking specific photo with the fucking right pose!!! D:<

so I'll draw another reference sheet with many little differences.
point of views, fingers, hands and musculature!
