I have no idea what to do

[dusk sable]

I realised that ive been doing simple anatomy for wayy too long and I have no clue what to do after. the images are something I drew in like 5 mins but I would like some advice on what to do better OR what to do next. Thanks

Well first of all start by 'cleaning' up from underneath, erase the lines in the middles until theres only the outline

Ofc i would rathher suggest. You learn from the beginning how to do anatomy

wdym cleaning

ive never heard that term

[dreamy lotus]

Wait lemme show

[dusk sable]

kk

[dreamy lotus]

I think it would be for one, better to relearn the shapes for more complex anatomy

Check Pinterest it has everything

[dusk sable]

I heard pinterest is bad from somewhere or from someone but im not sure why

[dreamy lotus]

As for cleaning, i meant it more so as instead of trying to get or draw clean lines, use eraser to get what you want

Cuz of AI

But its not so bad

You just need to keep your feed clean

[dusk sable]

Im kind of slow

I dont really understand in what situation I can 'clean'

[dreamy lotus]

Its fine, dw :) im just using weird terms

[dreamy lotus]

Wait I will use ur att to show you what i meant if thats alright

[dusk sable]

sure

[dreamy lotus]

The more you draw and erase the more you will figure out, and do use shapes preferably as they will let you grasp the bigger picture

[dusk sable]

so instead of immediatly doing the outline your telling me to let some of the important shapes from the sketch in?

Im sorry if thats wrong im gen stupid

[dreamy lotus]

Yes!

[dreamy lotus]

Dont worry, pls theres no stupide when learning

[dusk sable]

is there anything else I should know?

[dreamy lotus]

Watch a video about anatomy

And use lines, and grids

[dusk sable]

grids?

[dreamy lotus]

Uh whay app are you using?

[dusk sable]

ive heard about a grid method on social media

pencil2d

this stuff?

[dreamy lotus]

Ahhh you are doing animation!

[dreamy lotus]

Yes!

But make the gridd smaller

[dusk sable]

How are grids gonna help me if I may ask?

[dreamy lotus]

It will help you with the proportions, how big the head is compared to the arm, how the upper body should look like like compared to the bottom one, yk?

Also with height
