Looking back on my last journal makes me feel silly, because I imagined completely mastering the human body by the end of the year ... it really isn't that easy! It's like I've only improved slightly. Liefeld and I share three things in common: - We can't draw women - We can't draw hands holding objects - Our anatomy in general isn't always on point The only difference is I'm trying to do something about it and improve. So watchers, don't give up on me- I'M TRYYYYYYYIIIIINNNG Friends that keep this place cool: ~slyshand (https://www.deviantart.com/slyshand):iconHikui-Hito::iconrayanne::iconQurious: Cool people I need to talk to more (which includes the above mentione

I've got the books. I've got the tools. I've got the time. Now all that's left for me to obtain is the ****ing improvement. First, I will master the skeleton. I will master how it looks, its flexibility and all possible angles and positions (this applies to all stages). Then, I will master the musculature. I'll master the sizes depending on how fit the body is, the shape and where each muscle slots in (around the skeletal structure). Finally, the skin. Again, depending on the health of the body, I'll need to learn how much muscle/fat shows underneath the skin. My aim is to learn all body types, both male and female, and be able to dra

I won't be making any more animations until I get my drawing skills together. After struggling with some mother****in' basic poses, it hit me that I had to be good at "drawing" to succeed at animation, and after realising my drawing skills weren't that great the whole animation thing seemed kinda pointless. So from now (after splashing out on some figure drawing and anatomy books) I'll be studying human and animal anatomy. Once I get the human body down (both male and female obviously) I'll start the animation sh*t again. (It was so frustrating having the image of something in my head that I couldn't put down on paper.)
