There are some perspective problems with the size of the arms and legs. The book I am using suggests drawing triangles and other geometric lines you can measure to get a good idea of relative size. Otherwise, I don't think the figures are that bad, better than what I usually draw anyways.
My commitment to learn how to capture the beauty of the world with lines on paper. Thanks for your visit.

Human ninja forms
OK, so I decided to press on with the human forms, because they were new and rewarding to draw. These are martial art type characters with bulky clothing and belts, which makes things a bit more forgiving on the artist to be honest.

The human form in a chair
The next lesson in the book is the human form in a chair. Tired of dealing with trying to get the perspective on the stool, I thought this would be a good change of pace. It worked out OK. The drawings always look better in the pictures I think, so it is good to see them.
