Description Another study I did on body language, focusing on the way hands are used to express certain emotions.
Hope it helps you out as much as it helped me when drawing these.

This is a good analysis. I like it. And the gestures and facial expressions are well–sketched.

You're welcome

The only thing I found unbelievable was the range of non-negative emotions Moriz displayed XP

Oh. He can be very polite ^^

Xender1500 In reply to DamaiMikaz [2019-06-12 11:55:21 +0000 UTC]

He can be? This is honestly not the impression I got from him XD

DamaiMikaz In reply to Xender1500 [2019-06-12 11:57:54 +0000 UTC]

At a surface level he's ridiculously polite, only to be on his own again and complain to himself how people are stupid

Xender1500 In reply to DamaiMikaz [2019-06-12 12:11:19 +0000 UTC]

Pfffff now it makes sense. This sounds more like what I expect of him.

It's a matter of perspective I guess. From a pov of someone highly intelligent who also grew up really negatively, people must seem stupid.

While to other people they're not stupid, it's just that he's an "intelligent arrogant bastard" kind of guy.

DamaiMikaz In reply to Xender1500 [2019-06-12 13:01:31 +0000 UTC]

For Moriz it's not just intelligence. It's also disappointment of how much of the work comes comes down to politics. To having the right connections, to corporate ass kissing, to bureaucracy... It's frustrating to have good ideas, yet have someone else get the funding because he's better at playing politics.

Yeah, I can get that. Office politics suck

Is better that I look often at those, as I suck at understanding body language... and I'm drawing a comic.

Wow, this will be super helpful when I draw people in certain positions, and super explainations, they helped me see what I was missing in some of my old art.

RandomPedestrian114 [2019-06-09 22:17:03 +0000 UTC]

The explanation of the pose is really helpful. Knowing the important components of how emotions are displayed means I could change the pose a little but still convey the same feeling. Thanks for this!

Blunell [2019-06-09 20:06:02 +0000 UTC]

This will actually help me a lot in concealing my autistic traits during social interaction
And from an artistic point, it's a great sheet. Well done

I'm pretty blind to these things myself so I approach them from a rather theoretical point of view ^^

I figure he's the type of character that is somewhat careful in his expressions

This would be great to do with someone like my Xavier, who talks a lot with his hands.  But my Jacob, inversely, tend not to use his hands much when talking, though how he's holding them (folded, loose at sides, tense) might still tell a little about what kind of mood he's in. Especially if he's talking with someone he doesn't know, he goes into poker face mode and tries to keep his face, much less his body language, from giving away what he's thinking. Only direct thing you might get is his posture says he doesn't trust you. XD

Awesome! I'm like that thinking pose, "that's interesting to consider indeed" to make some different expressions of one of my OCs xD... Thank you for the inspiration!

But anyway,very interesting!
