Welcome to Gaia! ::

Right so, you want a critique of it so far I'm guessing?

So what you've got here is not that bad. In terms of height and length proportions things seem pretty good.

The first thing I notice is of course the head shape. I'd like to direct you to a picture of the human skull . Notice how it has a more oval shape for the cranium that tilts downwards. lover half of the face, jaw and chin are a more triangular shape.

Your torso is alright except for the fact that this person has no bum. xD It looks kind of flat back there. It's look nice is more shape was given to it, no a lot though or it's look awkward.

Interesting fact about legs. Legs are not, in fact straight. The kneecap comes out and pushes the skin farward and then the bottom half of the leg is back a bit. It's odd, I know. It took me a bit to get used to it, but that's how it is. This is an alright tutorial, but I want to direct you to the bottom where it shows the legs.. Unfortunately, I couldn;t find the tutorial that I wanted to show you, but this one will do. .. Actually this picture is pretty good. It's a muscle study of the leg. Notice how it's pushed in a bit below the knee cap. I've noticed you've got indication of this in the under drawing, but it shows in the actual leg as well.

Your arm that appears to be holding the tray is placed well, but just thin it out a bit. That arm looks like a body builders arm in thickness. Thin is out a bit and it would look great. Now the arm closest to us is placed well on the hips, but the upper part is a tad low. If you put your arm on your hip like that your shoulder will be pushed up. Raise the shoulder a bit and you're good. As you pointed out yourself the hands and feet are a bit small, but they're placed well.


I hope that helps a bit and good luck. If you finish it you should definitely post it. smile
