Be me. Be like:

>Wow drawing a stick figure and then adding basic shapes is much easier. Why didn't all those big names teachers teach this? Only big name "drawing comics the marvel" way mentions this method.

>Open fun with pencil
>Feel stupid

Turns out Loomis DOES teach this method. It's slightly different, but it's the same idea of using a stick figure and then fleshing it out.

It's just that figure drawing for all it's worth has a more advanced "manequin".

Loomis you always end up being the answer.

They don't. I mean they do teach gesture. But gesture and a stick figure like in the picture aren't the same thing.

Mainly because It's easier to create a stick figrure and move it from your mind than a gesture in the way proko does it that requires a model infront of you

Ooh, boy. Conspiracies I see.

Lemme tell you something about crappy "How to draw" books. They're trash, pushed out on the market to make a few bucks and be forgotten. Whether you learn anything or not is irrelevant to the creator and publisher, but they're not actively trying to sabotage you. They just suck.

But, here's the crux of the matter. Any artist who's actually going to make it someday can instinctively tell the difference between a crappy art instruction book, and a useful one. They will quickly outgrow the pablum designed for children, and find the good stuff. If you can't figure that out, you were never going to "make it" anyway.

everyone here says everything is shit. Somehow every beginner in /beg/ has more balls then you to post shit work and actually learn from people who want to help unlike you who sits in something and forget the next day. How do you know what you learn is actually good or something hindering you?

I suggest Michael Hampton, then.

First section, gesture drawing. Second section, breaking down the anatomy into stick figures and basic shapes. Specific anatomy after that.

He shows you how to connect the gesture drawing with the "Stick figure" so that you maintain the sense of movement and form, while building a framework for muscles and bones.

I already know the fact that they shills big time, I've been around long enough to know which book shills bs fundies to /beg. However I believe it's more of the artist trying and willing to learn being more important than any book teaching you art. Books are just thin pieces of wood if youre some kind of brainlet. books can't cure yourself from autism.
