The two techniques I cover in this video show simple anatomy construction, for male and female figures, and the basics of gesture drawing, for all kinds of poses.

Thank you so much for making a video on human anatomy

The first part was really useful, I struggle with the upper body (shoulders in particular) a lot. I tried gesture drawing with the example, and, well... i guess I know what I need to work on. TYSM for making such a great series!

[nancyhessler]

Do you change your pencil when you go from light to darker, or do you simply press harder on the pencil?

Can u make a tutorial on how to make a agent from VALORANT which is video game by breaking down that key points?

[alma-wi]

sorry, I may sound pretty stupid, but how do I draw the shoulder line left and right and twice the width of the head without measuring and calculating?

[locochavo]

Great work! I will say that the figures you drew don't work for me as l perfer drawing my figures with organic shapes and a more construction for better control over proportions, but l see how this could good figures for others as it uses long lines and boxy figure akin to a very simplified Brigeman's figure. However l will say l do find your method of gesture drawing to be amazing, since a lot of gesture drawings video often use a lot of anatomy and construction in the gesture instead of using the gesture line as guideline and keeping the outline of the gesture simple which l think gesture drawing is all about fundamentally yet it's not very common to see be taught(specially in a simple matter like your vid did)

Tysm it’s hard for me to draw human bodies lol

[nazdevelops]

He’s so talented smh, I can’t draw anything

[newfie]

I'm really new at drawing and I'm not interested in drawing people. I'm more into drawing landscape and buildings.
