Ive decided that Im going to try new poses, Ive got my own pose reference sheet I made with stick figures too xd

I dont like the head, and I know the upper body could definatley use some work.
And the lower body while Im at it. sweatdrop

I just hope this guy is really flexible XD I would never be able to bend like that, lol

The only thing that I noticed is that I don't know where the other arm is. is it hidden?

So far I dont know what Im doing with the other arm. I will add it when I figure that out sweatdrop
It actually isnt to hard, but yeah he is flexible xd

My main concern is the upper body, and around the torso upper legs butt areas.. It just doesnt look right to me, but that could be because I havent started adding clothing detail and what not sweatdrop

Kudos for trying new poses~! All the people I know who do so, have improved leaps and bonds over really short time x3 It's so fun to watch as well!

Definetly a very flexible position, yeah x3 Well.. I'd say the limbs mainly look pretty well attached, apart from the raised leg... The lines going to far inwards on the hip/butt area makes it look kind of doll-ish? Making them less prominent and adding some creases from the crotch area down the standing leg might help it look just a little more natural?

The legs/thighs look a bit thick in comparison to the torso > < And I do love how you do elongated limbs (I'm a real sucker for elongated styles x3 ) but in order to make it look proportional, you should probably make the arms of a more proportionate length to the arms, to avoid them looking short and stubby in comparison(foreshortening can take some blame here though), and possibly lengthen the torso just a bit as well to make them match^^

As a final critique, I think it might look more realistic if you put the "ball" of the feet (which he is balancing on) more... on line/directly under the leg, so that it looks more as if it's supporing his weight > < The fact that it's positioned so far in the front could potentially make it look as if he's tipping over > <

Gee, I'm terribly sorry if I sound very harsh here;; I honestly am (it's really late, so I'm sorry if I make no sense as well > <;; ) However, I wouldn't take the time to critique if I didn't like your art xD And I can honestly see that you've improved a lot^^ Since last I critiqued you, I feel your proportions already improved massively (what I'm critiquing is mainly small touches that -might- make it look better (chances are, I may be wrong xD )) I am quite fascinated by the facial shape as well... something about it is very appealing to me xD <3 Same goes for the hair~

So really, overall; Good job! I'm impressed by your quick development~

I think I will be both excited and frusterated by the challenges xd
and Thanks ^^

I had fixed that area a bit (didnt get to creases or anything yet)
I havent mastered things like perspective and what not, going to work harder on it though ^^
Thanks, normally I have a hard time with heads, but I seen a tutorial maybe a few weeks ago for heads. It was definitly an easier way of doing heads for me ^^
I feel honored xd
And in no way was that harsh, I love critique, and this was very helpful for me ^^ This actually is helping me continue this picture, since I felt stuck and didnt really like how it was turning out sweatdrop
