not gonna lie if you are like me and suck at coming up with poses using vintage sewing patterns for inspirations is so helpful for interesting poses that still display the character in a seeable way here are some examples of my favorites 

because they are literally drawn in a way to show off their outfit but still be interesting and not boring

Trying to draw buildings

Hi! Is it really necessary to learn how to draw the actual skeleton first in drawing humans?

Hey! While I wouldn’t say it’s absolutely necessary to draw the skeleton per say (though I highly, HIGHLY, HIGHLY advise it!), I would say that it’s vital to understand the skeleton of any creature! I have this feeling (based on art experience, especially college) that people never really explain why fundamentals are important, and so there’s this sorta confusion about “Why are we drawing skeletons, why are we studying anatomy”, and that’s exactly how I always thought. I dismissed really taking the time to internalize skeletal/muscle structure and it took a very heavy toll on my work. I improved at a snails pace. The moment I decided to understand WHY something moved the way it did, and the internal structure beneath, I made leaps and bounds of improvement! Drawing and studying the skeleton/muscle will help you grasp how things work and I pinky promise you it’ll feel like you’ve found that secret MarioKart 64 shortcut and place 1st in the Rainbow Road, it’s great

My whole process~
