Not *quite* Safe for Work

Mebbe. If your boss objects to a bit of graphite drawn nip. LOL. ;-)
Today’s sketches (haven’t done nearly as much as I should!!) taken from PoseSpace. Took about 10 minutes each. Fun fun. I like drawing curves.

two girls

I like the last two the best. Spent a bit more time getting the lines and shadows right. Proportions are okay – except for the girl leaning backwards, I think her front leg is a bit off – knees are hard to draw! They’re just such shapeless lumps – but so crucial to the form of the body.
Wish I could draw from life but with no money to go to life drawing classes and the lack of availability of people to pose for me I guess photos will have to do for now. When my paycheck comes I will be hitting Book Depository (forget Amazon!) for some recommended anatomy books. I like my Dynamic Anatomy book but there’s not enough female figures in there – just lots of beefcake men in contorted poses. Good if I wanted to do comics but not so much of the real core stuff like bone structure etc. Hmm.

Okay. Stuff I *really* need to work on:
Feet.
Hands.
CLOTHING.

Back to it then!
Ciao!
