    Thank you!
    What video course would you suggest I take at this point? There are a lot of things here and I can’t figure it out.

    I mainly studied from books. If you’re on NMA, Vilppu, Huston, and Legaspi should be good starts. They have a bunch of vids on YouTube as well. Supplement this figure drawing with some object sketching as warm-ups. Few minutes a day should let that structure knowledge seep in.

    I like the essence of the drawing above. Watch out for sharp points like on that arm. The wrist is usually a box into a egg in the forearm. Keep in mind your forms on the torso. The abs (shadow shape) should track along the sphere-egg you got going there.

    Marco, have you studied drawing solely from books (vids)?  Is that even possible?!
    Haven’t you attended any classes?

    I would say so, yeah. Everyone is different. Honestly can’t stand videos hah. I’ve taken some in college, some studio classes and a few workshops.

    Wow! You gave me hope! It seemed to me that without art schools this isn’t possible.

    Looks like you’re progressing very nicely! I like the variety and subtlety of your shading for day 6, in addition to the grasp of proportions and general anatomy. I also love the atmosphere of the day 4 drawing.

    Really good crass-hatching there for the Brandi figure. I love the balance, mood as well. Shading on the upper legs could use more character. Nice to follow the form, but some anatomical knowledge will help in defining the shadow shape. Of course, that comes with practice once you start studying the muscles and whatnot.

    Solid!

    When I decided to take over this magnificent marathon, I immediately got sick!
    Now everything is fine. Continue.
