Description FULL VIEW FOR THE TUTORIAL!!


and some other people online started asking questions about and commenting on my body and muscle structure (and how I do it), so I stuck this together this afternoon. I haven't really done a tutorial like this before, and I don't really draw "by the book," but I hope this can be of some help to others.

Inspiration... I want to do more tutorials for faces and hair sometime. Someone asked a while back how I drew plaid patterns, so I'll do that as well.

Thank you! After years of almost ALWAYS drawing females, it feels nearly impossible to get the structure and anatomy of a male right. I shall test this out.

Hikari-Dareigan [2008-11-08 04:41:57 +0000 UTC]

...I always make the legs way too skinny, (even though I adore skinny legs on a guy, I make them too much like sticks x3) and I don't even know how I mess up on the arms half the time. xD

This'll be really helpful. I've been trying to work on drawing outstretched arms better, as well as giving my guys less girlish (and less anorexic) figures.
thanks. <3
