Wow, you keep improving. Awesome to see! Tips on your most recent drawing:
- Most forms can be round or boxy. Knees tend to usually be boxier so I would search for those characteristics most of the time. When the knee bends the femurs roll back like a rocking chair and the joint opens up. So what maybe was a box when the knee was straight really becomes more like two boxes when it opens.
- If you are going to do a shadow from the figure on the ground (and I recommend you do) take greater care with it. It gives us a lot of context and information about the pose and it’s important for the illusion.
- Be conscious of bilateral symmetry. One shoulder appears more massive than the other.
- If one pectoralis is reaching backwards then think about how to show that more like a cylinder to get it to foreshorten.
Keep up the great work!

besides your days off the challenge it seems like your big figure drawing that you finished on day 36 made something click for you?
I mean you made a huge jump in your rendering skills. You were already pretty accurate in your longer careful drawings so add those new shading abilities and now I for myself am not even able to critique you anymore. Only if there would be anatomical errors which I don’t know enough of myself.
So incredible improvement 👍
September 5, 2020 at 11:39 am #743018Really nice study. You really get the feel of the form of the musculature. Kudos.
September 7, 2020 at 3:07 pm #747741i really appreciate that, Erik . Maybe putting in these long hours have finally started to pay off
how’s it going, Christopher . Honestly, I was doing all of this foundation work and needed a challenge. Watching Iliya draw is really inspiring, and motivated me to push myself and work at a larger scale, which has been a goal of mine . Thanks for checking in
– charcoal on paper 18×24 inches
– i find drawing the back of any figure still very difficult

September 10, 2020 at 8:16 pm #754138I just finished this chapter and it was a bear! Nice rendering.
September 15, 2020 at 11:45 am #762966hey Natasha,
hah it was and then some..
i’ve actually skipped around all these chapters, but decided to come back and do the assignments in a much larger scale
since that’s what my personal work will be mainly focused around
by the way, thanks
– i feel that I’m finished with this particular assignment
– liking the look/idea of leaving the other leg a few steps behind what I consider completion
