Ah ty for the feedback Alessa,
I’m doing so much drawing these days to the point thats its affecting my grades in school to iron out my porportion problems, I read so many drawing books but its the prac thats the most help i find. I try to apply the rules but they dont work as good as just takeing my time and looking, measureing. ect. Im starting to take more time, draw slowly, until i get the proportions down, then go back to my gestures.
Well heres the new line up
82 This is a wip, i dont wanna be going into the odwf with cold feet 6 hours on this guy gonna finish this then move to the satyre that doesnt wanna get it on with the 7!! nymphos.
and 83
and 84 noticed i focused more on the outlines on this, but I WAS thinking of volumes i swearz it.
Andrew,
Great to see your studies! 
I think you might really like the book:

Ah ty rebecca I’m always down for info on how to improve my skillz. Kind of getting discouraged i dont seem to be progressing to fast. I will check this out asap.
hey andy, those are fantastic! especially the colored ones of the females during your progression stages there. one of my all time hinderences is thinking up believable poses which you seem to get quite naturally
cheers
Andrew,
I think you will like that book a lot! In it, he describes a method of blocking that makes drawing figures much simpler in terms of the basic lay~in. It’s a fast, easy read, with lots of lovely pictures.

Not finished to the point I would have liked. Trying to work with biggest brush possible
Hey Andrew,
I really like your last piece a lot ~ the loose way you’ve done the background is really nice. I think in some ways you might benefit from departing a bit from a more linear to a more blocky / values / mass oriented style such as you are exploring in this last piece ~ it seems to be working really well for you.
Cheers,
~Rebeccak

Hmm, her face seems a bit animeish ~ are you going for a more cartoonish look? Her right forearm seems small and her left arm long and thin. Perhaps reworking the basic gesture of the figure might help.

Ah thx for the tips rebecca, Im really trying to learn the basics. That one was kinda rareity these days, dont do too much figure stuff from my imagination…one day tho
I still gotta finish that ODW gah!! so much on my plate
And updates done, over 125 gestures now.
Andrew,
There is something about this one that I really like:
[left]Might be nice to see you continue to work on this…have you by chance seen this thread in WIP 2D?
Some great stuff there, which your piece reminds me of!
Looking forward to seeing you continue on the OFDW piece as well!
Cheers,
