Trying to learn anatomy. How to get proportions right?
I want to learn how to draw human bodies. A lot of advice I’ve seen is to draw from references and break down the body into shapes. Also to do stick figure gesture drawing
I have been trying to do that, but it never looks right. I can’t get the proportions right.
The arms, legs, torso, etc always looks too long/short. Or the drawing just looks awkward and stiff
My eyes know it’s off, but I can’t move my pencil the way I want to make it look right
How to change this?
