Something a bit different...
🕑 Added 2018-03-07 12:42:46 +0000 UTC A friend of mine got into doing art a few years ago, and has tried almost everything from airbrushing to oil paints and does pretty well with most of them.He sent me this pic, on the left, that he'd been working on using a new Wacom tablet, and while starting to learn Corel's Painter. He was having difficulty getting the pose right, and I agreed- it's awkward and not... dynamic, I guess.
After a heavy day in the shop, I was kind of looking for something relaxing to do, so I spent... well, a little too long cleaning it up. Tweaking this, redrawing that, a lot of "hum, that doesn't look right, what if I move it over here... Oh God! Undo! Undo!" :)
But, eventually, I thought the rework came out well. It's still never going to appear in a Marvel comic, and I still don't know how to properly fix the face- just not enough experience drawing regular people, y'know? :)
But still a fun exercise. I just don't do enough art-for-art's-sake type of stuff. :)
Doc.

A little something I remember from my art days. Is the big difference I can tell between the two pictures as far as a dynamic pose. Is that picture on the right has a much higher line of action. and that's if you drew a line from the top of the character's head to the bottom of the characters feet in the left-hand picture it's just like a slight curve. But in the right-hand picture it's much more pronounced which gives the pose a more Dynamic feel

Now try drawing Pirta, Tawny or Kasi in that pose...
There is an old art book - Dynamic Figure Drawing. Very good for those seeking action poses. Shows nicely how the body moves and twists and Does Stuff. I recommend it over the 'how to draw comics' books.
