27/04/13 - Male Anatomy Analysis

I've posted a few times before about my attempts to improve on drawing male anatomy and recently i read about a technique which is simply just drawing it them putting the image over the top to see where you've gone wrong. After a few attempts at this it reckoned that I'll start seeing patterns which will make it easier to train myself out of bad habits and improve.

Analysis
I didn't put a mark on the model's left leg because it's slightly off and i think i was trying to exaggerate the pose slightly... Might be why i ended up with such an extreme angle on the right leg too.

Analysis

So everything seemed to suffer from a case of gigantism here. That seems to be a bit of a pattern, also the width of the models is always skewed but the height seems to be pretty accurate.

Analysis


Focused a little more on the width but due to my angles being slightly off and a little bit of help from my gigantism creeping in again with the legs the height has suffered a bit.Also i seem to have simplified the pose after making it too exaggerated in the previous one, just need to concentrate a bit more. Definitely better than the last two though in terms of scale and proportion. 

Source Four

 Analysis

 Proportions are much better apart from the miniature leg. Generally it's just the angles i've slipped up on this time. Some of the definition on the torso is in odd places and the heads a bit small in this one.
