Bones for basic anatomy.

>choosing anything other than hybrid blockhead/champ

>using mannequins
Never gonna make it.

>>3777910
I guess a mix of blockhead and woody.
I never draw dummies for anything other than complex perspectives though, feels like a waste of time.

based chad champ

Bones is the most practical, why draw what isn't actually there?

>>3779137
>tfw no skeleton gf to study anatomy with

>>3777910
lineup for me. i always understood the torso twist best with intersecting triangles

What's the best mannequin to use for drawing anime girls?

>>3779155

How do I draw a mannequin over an existing drawing? Is this accurate?

>>3779282
stiff as fuck anon but so is the original art so idk

>>3779282
A never draw over. Aleays draw next to.
B never use literal stcks, use cyllinders, sausages, beans, cucumbers, think about volumetric shapes all the time.

>>3779163
What book ?

bones solid action hybrid clusterfuck

Mr. Bones all day

action/blockhead master race lock in

What's this good for?

>>3779350
one of the How to Draw Manga series

Studying Loomis atm so bones is probably the the closest to what I'm using now. Never found the "not a stick" one very helpful at all.

>>3777910
I only use not a stick. The rest are just crutches for poor artists. Stick > dynamic form > detail. We're not trying to recreate reality here, you're supposed to be making something shapely and interesting. Otherwise go be a photographer or a 3D modeler if you want to create bones and anatomically accurate people standing around with your boring realism.

>>3777910

In all of these examples, the artist breaks gesture to draw those little ball joints. Don't do that. Draw the balls over the gesture if you have to, but don't draw bone by bone/brick by brick.

>>3779555
lmao do you even perspective?

>>3779555
I think you're missing the point. The purpose of studying figure drawing and anatomy isn't just about creating hyper realistic art peices, it's about understanding how the human body is formed and how it can move, contort and balance. You can still exaggerate certain features or posses in your drawings but it takes a good understand of how the human figure is formed to pull it off, otherwise your drawings will look wonky and unbalanced. I can gaurentee you most if not all of your favourite artists have done this.

>>3779137
Thank you faggot I threw up

>>3777910
I choose Vilppfu

>>3779137
i cant believe she actually lacks the muscle power to throw a ball, how the hell is she walking

>>3779137
Is this player really not gonna pop an ember? Looks horrible

>>3777910
now i'm confuse
what is the different between gesture and mannequin
someone like vilppu, marc use gesture then draw figure
some like loomis use mannequin

I just draw

>>3779868
Gesture is getting a general pose and form to build your base skillset.
Mannequins are construction as a base for a complete piece

Action and Line-Up but I really should do Blockhead because my body planes are shit.

>>3779137
does she have a disorder or something? Still p cute tho

>>3779978
She has waifuitis

>>3777910
I use bones

>>3779978
It's called anorexia anon, it's one of the worst mental diseases there is

>>3780167
Huh, her ribcage goes lower than I usually draw it. This is very informational.

>>3780167
This genuinely spooks me more than actual horror shit. There's something horribly wrong about this

>>3780192
I just draw a large ball joint where the ribcage ends that is attached to the hips. There isn't a lot of space between hips and chest

>>3780195
Because it's real.

This is what a gesture/construction looks like from someone who just drew a shit ton over the years instead of properly learning construction from a source.

Literally just a shambled together mess of ideas I picked from other artists, along with my own observations and quirks. The thighs tend to trigger other artists so much but the chicken drumleg that I shape afterwards always seemed to click best for me to visualize the general volume of it.

Also notice that's it's not entirely gesture or construction, but a strange amalgamation.

The head is just to show my head construction which is a triangle with the center of a "mask" placed along the one edge.

What I'm trying to say is that you should follow some kind of structure early on unless you want to be stuck with a mess that pisses people off. Tools be tools though, so I wouldn't worry if you're there.

>>3777910
Bones is my bae

>>3779137
chosen undead

>>3779144
hold me bros

>>3782621
this is what "too much" information looks like which I tend to keep away and just master a certain style

I usually use the far-right.
I can't really decide on one so I switch between a lot of them, though.

Action one. I don't like construction too much as it stiffens stuff, and I want to FEEL the volumes myself.

>>3779102
Make that femdom porn and get money

>>3780167
Not even to fap but where can I find porn of someone like this? Or at least nudes with various angles? Interesting to study.

>>3777910
i've used action, sometimes line up, solid, and bones. sometimes i don't even need full on construction lines.

Action, its simple. I dont waste too much time on the skeleton

Where can I find tutorials on how to use the Line Up figure? I've never seen it until now and I don't know how someone is supposed to use it

>>3783949
She has over 400 videos here

>where can I find porn of someone like this?
Jesus Christ 4chan horrifies me sometimes

>>3783911
I use bones but I make boxes for the chest and pelvis like that and connect them with a ball shape

>>3784570
It looks like it's just based on the Reilly method

>>3784575
>ywn have a to-scale posable mannequin

>>3784575
That skelly butt though.

After struggling to draw the figure for ages I've found that a combination of the blockhead and champ is the best. But you really need to know perspective to map it out and anatomy to fill the mannequin with meat and muscle.

>>3779137

how can these people operate without muscles? They're quite literally skin and bone, how can they even wear clothes.
