Wow. Which makes me feel like a perv, so I'll elaborate: You make drawing look so easy. The colours are very nice as well.

Wow! I didn't know about the reference tool you used there -- now I do, so thanks for mentioning it. *collects website*

Your art is wonderful. Sorry, I don't feel I'm on a level to give you in-depth critiques (haha), but it all looks very crisp and professional.

Glad to share it! I find that reference tools featuring photography are more helpful to me than muscle/skeletal model posers; there's more movement and weight and lighting going on.

Aww, thank you so much! ^__^

It's interesting you say that. Before I took life drawing, I did try studying anatomy, but I found the anatomy books intimidating... there seemed to be a huge gap between studying the diagrams and applying what I (had hoped I'd) learned to my next drawing.

When I took life drawing, though, my ability to simply draw people skyrocketed. Now it's probably time for me to go back and study anatomy, but life drawing was, I think, really the best "anatomy crash course" I could have gotten. (And I intend to go on taking life drawing forever.)

Naw man, unless you've got an invested interest in anatomy or want to actually draw skeletons or muscle (if you're into zombies or gore, this would be very important!)... I don't think it's a important as life drawing. That gets you learning proportion and movement and weight, etc. So draw as many people are you can! ^o^

Well thank you! Nah not into gore, but fortunately I love drawing people. My figure drawing class starts up again next Friday. Can't wait.
