Description Line-of-action is something I’ve never really paid attention to, which is probably why my poses always look so god awful. This is why I'm starting now. Maybe This will help my poses not seem to stiff.

Above, I squiggled four random lines, then tried to come up with three poses for each. It turned out to be a pretty fun exercise.

Practice took place in Flash

Sorry for being absent a lot.

I have been really busy for the past 2 months. First my laptop broke, so I couldn't use my tablet. Second, I had final exams pressuring on me. And lastly preparing for both new years and christmas made me exhasted. (christmas on Jan 7th).

But I'm back and ready to draw again!

It actually didn't feel like it was much more effort than usual. Almost made things a bit easier, having a guide to how the pose would flow DONOTBELAZY
