Hi : )
I'm doing this maternity shoot style drawing with a couple. He is supposed to stand behind her with one foot, the other foot on the same level as her.
So his body will partially be covered by her.
His hand is supposed to rest on her belly, while he kisses her forehead.

I'm not too sure if I got his pose right - especially with the head, I think it should be tilted a bit to make it more visible , that he is leaning forward towards her ?

Anything else I got wrong with his anatomy / pose ? (the hip area does look off, no ? )

thankful for any feedback on this : )

I feel the head rotating doesn't really match the anatomy of the neck and bellow. I don't have enough anatomy knowledge to actually tell you how to fix this, but you should check some references and check that! Also the hip is okay, but isn't he standing to close to her?

A other thing is that the pose looks a bit stiffy, so I'd recommend adding some flow in either the arms or the shoulders.

Heh, but this is just my opinion! You're free to take it or no

Okay, it's looking really good in general, for the neck I would recommend to draw some subtle hints of the form, a bit of meat under the jaw and then connect it to the sternum, the hips are okay but I would lower the inner "V" line as the distance from the crotch looks too big and for the outer part I would make a second incision under the one you did to hint the glute a bit and move the one you have up a little bit. On other tips, I would give him more skull on the back, and lower the clavicles a bit as he's leaning forward and relaxed and the trapeziums would be more visible, I would also lower the hint of the deltoid incision and move the chest up a bit (not as much as I did), on the legs, the line you drew coming from the inner part where there's a valley would actually go up, as that valley is limited by the sartorium, on the knee there's usually a hint to both the rotula and the head of the tibia so two bumps are good for building it, they are not as I did them but still, and I know it's not finished but I would taper the foot a bit, I would also thin out wrists and ankles for better connecting with feet and hands I drew a whacky hand structure but you can follow something similar

I exaggerated most representations on there and I get a bit lost if I don't start the whole pose myself so take everything with a pinch of salt, I'm no expert

You seem to know where everything goes and handle the volumes pretty well, It's just needing a bit more of finesse✨
