Like I said in my previously posted male figure sketches, it's good to go back to some human studies now and then, and really, I should probably do these a lot more often than I do. These weren't drawn with any photo or model reference, just some conceptual figure studies. I tried to think of interesting poses and sort of tell stories with them. I like how a lot of these turned out.

Male study here: [link] There seem to be a lot less figures of ladies than I did of males, but in fact I think there are more. Interesting.

(It occurs to me that maybe I should put some kind of content warning on these?... But surely that wouldn't be necessary, as they contain very little specific detail and are basically covered.)

Sure thing - I like the dynamic feeling they transmit!

Awesome. Dynamic is a great thing when it comes to figure/gesture drawings.

Nice studies, I think you did great with the poses, they all look very natural.

again nice work!! I like the sort of angular look you gave this, its something I don't see very often done to female studies.

It's true, most of the time the female figure is done more with curves, isn't it? I like to try to do a contrast of soft and hard, sharp and curved when I do these sorts of things.

Well i think it works more when doing studies, it differentiates the different forms more.

kuabci In reply to btomimatsu [2012-08-17 22:33:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, and adds contrast too, which makes them more interesting and appealing.

also adds to the over all gesture of the drawing.
