for not having drawn in three weeks and not much before that, these felt surprisingly good. i still forget to plan out space prior to doodling and sketching, but eh. the papers cheap. taking a short break, more later /fig/gers. also

guess i'm done spamming for today. maybe i'll collect them and post every second day instead, to not be one of the few faggots posting here. i cucked out with the left hand because it looked weird and simplified it instead. i think i should draw some hands in the following days to get that "fixed". other than that i think the figure came out alright

you guys are pretty good; I try to learn gestures as well. i learned a lot of proportion, but it was a pretty technical process. i need to bring fluidity into it

that left hand drove me a little nuts, but its a weird angle in the ref and the picture wasnt a good resolution to see what exactly is going on. i'll probably try that again later or tomorrow. i love rawr gunn though. shouldve done a whole page with a more detailed version, because i keep giggling at it.

Couple drawing from a few days ago. Bought a sharpie roller .5 and I've been enjoying it a lot more than I expected. Before this I've been playing around with a bunch of brush pens so the change of pace feels cool

I work a labor job, and my body gets wrecked. I think that physical tiredness strips the sensitivity needed to draw good figures, even for days after with rest. It depresses me so much.I smoked some weed for the first time in a while and it let me feel it again. Obviously not saying it's some wonder drug for artists, it's pretty shit if you want finished results, but when you feel that failure anxiety melt away, it's cool to witness that despair/blocked mental state to just flowing as a sudden contrast. Normally I'd have to scribble with a tight grip for a few days to get that feeling back.Thought Id share.

Honestly, these other ones are without weed, but to get this kind of flow for me is super difficult normally, its like a once or twice in a month.

I feel like I lack the understanding of how to train figure drawing to reach the goal of being able to draw a figure directly from imagination.
So far, I've been tracing over different pose reference but I don't feel like I made any progress.

im kind of shit at this but i need to get good at it, i dont really know what figure drawing is suposed to teach outside of building a mental library for poses so im also kind of trying to shade things while im at it.
