Usually when I do my drawings, I go through around 3-5 sketch passes before lining. I feel like those are....a lot of sketches. It's like I am never definite with my lines and that I need to undergo m...

Just like hands, feet are tricky as well. While I feel that they can get less expressive compared to hands, they don't get as much attention so they're less familiar to me.
Given that, I decid...

A neat way to keep the posing of busts interesting is to switch up the perspective while also making the head and chest face different directions and angles.
I'll be getting back to my studies again...

I think I should post my WIPs here? Anyway, I have limited knowledge in animation but I want to try my hand at it again from roughs up until compositing. I'll have to give this a second rough pass.

Some more hands! I wanted to try out some tricky poses that look awkward when drawn. I tried pushing the arcs, but I don't think I'm quite there yet.
Reference used:
Hands are difficult!!! I think that once you've figured out how to break it down into parts, it becomes easier. Here's me reviewing how I construct and draw parts of the hand as well as the stuff I ke...

An oldie, but I still like this one. Here are some tips for getting that mean art block out of the way using the power of references and how it can help in developing your style!

Anyhow, I'm almost wrapping this portion up....

Essentially, I chose certain shapes (i...
