Thank you very much Tohsuke! i'm happy you like the hair styles and you should! Granted it's difficult but it really helps with understanding how it effects in the manga/anime style

Mysterycookie In reply to Rhiota [2012-12-15 18:58:18 +0000 UTC]

awh noo that's not true! maybe you should try to do gesture drawing or something like that,
it really helps you to look at the real world in a different way,
it makes it easier to draw from real life and to make you experienced in anatomy ^__^

Rhiota In reply to Mysterycookie [2012-12-15 19:09:13 +0000 UTC]

Ehm... a gesture drawing for the face? O_o I wasn't aware there were such gestures

Why does everyone think I don't use gestures or something? >.>'

Those resources were pretty useful, thanks! It's just annoying I haven't had the time to practice any head portraits lately, and im suffering an art block and can't draw bodies any more

Mysterycookie In reply to Rhiota [2012-12-27 17:07:23 +0000 UTC]

awww that's amazing. great also to have some basic poses so you won't run out of them. i really need to expand those basic poses :/
ajsldkfjs loads to do this holiday ehehe XD

Rhiota In reply to Mysterycookie [2012-12-27 17:34:20 +0000 UTC]

Yeah that is true :3 it's interesting how complex even the simple poses can be and the different emotions that can be applied to them and I need to expand those basic poses as well DX

Haha yeah, i've still got soooo much still to do for my remaining holiday :L

Mysterycookie In reply to Rhiota [2012-12-27 17:43:39 +0000 UTC]

aww well we need to find some nice poses then which
can be used in loads of situations. i really need
to know how to draw someone sitting on a chair since
i wouldn't have ANY idea as to how to draw that >.<

soo many things and so little time D:

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Rhiota In reply to Mysterycookie [2012-12-28 22:48:03 +0000 UTC]

Yeah we do, im pretty sure there must be a resource out there somewhere which can supply such poses. Also yeah I need to find some sitting poses to work on as well, recently i've been working on kneeling poses, I suck badly at them DX but I remain hopeful

If you want I can link you to some sitting on chair poses I find? I have a good one, however it is nude and the model isn't really sitting, she is like on the edge of the chair, if that makes sense?

Mysterycookie In reply to Rhiota [2012-12-30 16:36:43 +0000 UTC]

hehe kneeling isn't that hard actually, well at least in sideview it isn't. in front view it is :/
hmmm yes i should start at it, since i desperately want to draw some sitting poses once ehehe for reasons ehehe XD

oh i kind of get it. hmmm i also need male ones though, but female ones are welcome too. okay send me the link!!

Rhiota In reply to Mysterycookie [2013-01-01 23:21:40 +0000 UTC]

Haha yeah, sideview kneeling isn't too bad, but from weird and wonderful angles... not so much DX



I have the female ones here;

Kneeling Pack 1 - [link]
Kneeling Pack 2 - [link]
Sitting 1 - [link]
Sitting 2 - [link]

Sorry, I had a load of them, and I also have some males somewhere, I will continue to look for them and then link you to them on my next reply to this comment

Mysterycookie In reply to Rhiota [2013-01-01 23:32:40 +0000 UTC]

ahhh yes i understand. though front view is hardest i guess since i would be endlessly struggling with the heels/feet >.<

ohh that are amazing pictures, though for the normal sitting one i still need to find some basic ones. i thought to have seen
them on deviantart somewhere -v-

okayy just take your time and when you come across them just mention it c:

Thanks Rin! i'm surprised at how complex the anatomy of the face actually is to draw xD it's like learning the body anatomy all over again xD

Np, and recently I found this guy called prokotv on youtube, his studies helped me out A LOT.

Rhiota In reply to danpurin [2012-12-12 17:07:40 +0000 UTC]

Proko! His videos are so helpful! I've only really started using them for the features of the head though, the first one or two of the study I didn't realise this which was foolish :L

I hope he goes on and does some stuff for the body as well

well, keep practicing then! maybe study how the human skull looks facing directly forward? it might help :3

I had to draw the same one twice. I valued shaded them both too, but the second one was in crayon, and I embellished it somewhat >.>

Whenrabbitsattack2-0 In reply to Rhiota [2012-12-12 22:17:07 +0000 UTC]

lol, I'm hardly pro. Jsut try some simple studies in a large size (like A3) it makes it easier if the detail is blown up.
