28/03/13 - I'm not dead, male anatomy

Just a short post really to let you know that I'm not dead I'm just busy working on my case study. I think it's going ok, we have a milestone on Friday so I'll look forward to feedback.

Male anatomy is something I've been trying to improve upon recently and luckily a fair few of the life drawing classes we've had have had a male model so that's helping but to add a little extra practise I'm using a few other methods, some I've mentioned before. Today i used a website called :

Similar to posemaniacs it has a tool for drawing practise which times the pictures. What i think this does which is a little different is that you have a number of options to choose from. You can choose to only draw a specific gender, whether the model is clothed, nude or "decent" and you have a choice between the standard slide show with set intervals or something called class mode which mimics that of a standard life drawing class including warm ups and gradually longer poses and even for the longer classes it includes breaks. I chose the later this time around and opted for a short 30 minute class and here's my results.
I think I've started to improve a little since I last posted progress, still having a little bit of proportion problems though.
