May 25, 2012 - The second gesture had a much better perception of depth and form. The pose also seemed a bit more relaxed.

Mar 16, 2012 - @tyson1162 Go take a look at his work. He can draw. This is called one-minute figure drawing. Your aim is to capture movement, posing and other important info. It's a must for anyone hoping to animate or storyboard, among other things.

Mar 15, 2012 - Eh, I dunno it might be a personal preference, I have a much harder time drawing from a photo than I do from life. But even so, if you set up properly for life drawing you shouldn't have to look too far away; it's always best to keep both the model and your paper in sight, in peripherals if nothing else.

Mar 12, 2012 - this man cant draw

ANIMEMIND Says:

Mar 11, 2012 - @potatopandaYes i completely agree. But sometimes you want to capture the qualities of the person in your gesture. Its not like your going to make a tall gesture if you saw a dwarf like person. You would try to make the gesture similar to the subject. I guess what i was really trying to say is, its a lot easer to draw a gesture when the subject is exactly next to your hand rather than observing a subject in real life. In real, you look away from your page, but in this, you simply tilt the eye.

potatopanda Says:

Mar 10, 2012 - The height of the sketch versus the height of the model in the picture isn't the same for starters, but more importantly gesture drawings aren't supposed to have perfect proportions. All you want to do is capture the movement of the pose, from life or photo doesn't matter. It can be all out of whack and disproportionate but if you get that energy on the paper, you did it right.
