Description ***YOU MUST READ THIS***
Step One: Welcome back. This is for all those people that're too embarassed or have trouble drawing female anatomy. We're focusing mainly on the upper body. Sketch down your pose and make sure it's something that'll accentuate her front. I did another static position to make things easier

Step Two: Flesh her out now! But let's be realistic. Alot of times I'll see female pictures with boobs that are shaped funky and set way too low or boobs that're super huge. Try not to do either. You can represent them using circles. Sketch them higher up, but be careful. If it's too high, it'll look like she's deformed. If it's too low, it'll look like she's old and sagging.

Step Three: Add in details. Breasts aren't actually circles There's a slight dip at the top where they connect with that space under the shoulders, afterwhich they curve out. I like to draw my girls with big boobs, but not so big that they stick out two feet in front of her. Curve gently in again above the ribs. Remember, women are generally depicted in hour glass shapes. The waist should be thinner than her bust and hips. Once you're satisfied, ink her in.

Step Four: Add colour!

Β Not the so very good proportions. Breasts are not circles, the are more oval-y. just practice and you'll get there

To breast size? To be more realistic That and mega-big breasts denote immaturity in the artist. They focus on a bigger size often to distract from mistakes elsewhere.

the realisim thing I get, but don care for sense in a lot of manga unrealistic stuff happens anyways and the immaturity an mistakes thing doesn't really happen though :/

You're right! Some people just prefer mega big breasts. I suppose I just find that tasteless :/

UnagiTakanashi In reply to skipperofotters05 [2014-01-01 14:47:39 +0000 UTC]

yeah, well I guess its how you present it really. big breasts is something I draw all the time XD but if you do it in sertain ways it can just be dumb :/ and even I have a limet to where it stopes being sexy and becomes either funny or dumb. plus a lot of times its hilarious in anime because of the things they do with it XD unless its porn 0-0 I stay away from that...

A character should be all around beautiful - not just in her chest. That appeals to human nature's most primal desire. I guess I just like to have characters that have more depth than a single aspect of their physical build. I find a character more attractive if they're mostly clothed instead of flaunting everything they've got.

UnagiTakanashi In reply to skipperofotters05 [2014-01-02 16:18:02 +0000 UTC]

meh, depends on the character. I tend to draw random girls super busty if im not using them in my manga but if I am then there will usualy be only one or two super busty girls in the inner circle, a kurumu if you will
