(( my main blog is here. I'm still swamped with college work and I update here as regularly as I can with art and stuff. I have some big plans soon so I encourage you follow if you can. ❤️))

I apologize for my awful handwriting, but here’s my quick tutorial on how I generally draw poses and anatomy. ovo~

This doesn’t get into more dynamic poses, which takes quite a few more steps and requires use of perspective. But it’s the bare basics of what I’ve either been taught or observed. Buuuut:

Start out by sketching a few basic shapes and lines to layout how the body is positioned. Circles can be used for the head, joints, and even ribcage for less blocky figures. I usually use a squares to create more of a broad chest as well as for the palms of the hands. And then a heart for the hips, I’ve discovered it gets the width and height perfect. 

Fill in the figure with more shapes! Cylinders for the arms, legs, and even the torso. It all depends on the figure you’re trying to create. You can even use squares or circles for the torso. And then triangles for where the chin, fingers, and feet will be. 

From here you should have a good base to go ahead and start drawing anatomical features onto your sketch on a new layer. As well as adjust anything that may need correcting, or even change up part of the pose. 

And finally you can start adding cloths, hair, facial features, ect. And continue on to start linework and color.

 I can do a more in depth tutorial on this subject if anyone is interested and use that one to show how I create more dynamic pieces. 

Also, if you’re really wanting to practice posing and such I highly reccomend  Proko. His tutorials have helped me so much. 

And that’s about it. If you have any other questions or are interested in the second tutorial, don’t hesitate to shoot me an ask. ( ᐛ )و
