This is a picture of the female 45 minute drawing on Wednesday. I thought I started off pretty good, but later when Amy came by, she pointed out that I had drawn my waist and pelvic bone too small. So I fixed it, and the finished product you see here looks more anatomically correct. A tip Amy gave me, was to exaggerate the curves around the pelvic bone, so you're drawing what you know rather than drawing what you see.
On Friday, we drew a 45 minute of the male body (which I forgot to take a photo of). But that drawing took me forever to get the proportions right. At the end of the 45 minutes, all I pretty much had was the shape of the sternum/chest, legs, and the abdomen. Nothing much to show. While I looked at everyone else's around me, they had the body shape, ribcage, pelvis, pubic bone, and some muscles on their page. I felt like I moved way too slow for that drawing.
Your drawing looks good! The muscles in the legs and around the hip bones and up to the abdomen look very believable and make your drawing look 3 D. I also felt like I didn't get much down for our friday drawing with the male model. I think for me it was because I am so use to the female model so when we do have a male model their bodies seem so different.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad if you think that you are drawing slowly. I draw at least half as slow as you probably do. I feel like everyone is putting their touches on their cake while I am still making the batter, metaphorically. But I felt this drawing turned out well, and now you are more the wiser for it.
