Notes
I wanted to do a sort of revamp of The Way I Draw -Tutorial- .
I tried to make it sound more serious and to the point since the tutorial I made two years ago had me going aloof and showed my sleep deprivation. But, even though I tried to sound as serious as can be, I guess I got carried away.

dA was being lame and made me cut it into two parts because the original size is 840x19761 and the limit's 18000x10800.
Man, that's so lame. I totally thought there was no such thing as an image size limit. e_e

Oh my goooood this helped me so so much oAo

Thing is, I can draw the upper body and the legs perfectly fine separately, but when I try to put them together it comes out weird =3=" Like, the hips/waist look too small, or the thighs are too skinny... but when I try to fix them they look fat .___." Any tips that can help me with this..?

Auddits In reply to nekobaka99 [2012-07-19 05:12:51 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I know what you mean. I went through a stage where I could draw hands cool all by themselves, and putting it on the person would make the hand look like elephant toes or baby hands. D:

Not sure how to get around that though, maybe try using body references? I look at posemaniacs.com every now and again to help me out when I'm in a fix.

I finished! I was trying to mimic the poses and style, but many things went horribly wrong.
My attempt to follow this tutorial is also presented next to something pervy I tried to draw early this morning.

I've learned a lot from this, and I'll keep practicing!

Well, everyone has their own style, it's normal things would probably go "horribly wrong" c: Follow what you feel is right
I'm glad you learned something from my tutorial

How do you determine how long the innitial torso line (or the torso itself, up to the neck) should be? Mine kept coming out like tubes. Also, the breasts?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Auddits In reply to ThatM0useGuy [2012-04-04 23:03:58 +0000 UTC]

What do you mean? The length of how long the torso should be?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

ThatM0useGuy In reply to Auddits [2012-04-04 23:59:45 +0000 UTC]

Yes. My characters kept coming out too long.

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Auddits In reply to ThatM0useGuy [2012-04-05 04:45:27 +0000 UTC]

As I stated before, the length of a torso is about half the length of the leg. If they end up looking too lanky, then adding more body to them (like getting more bulky) usually eliminates it.
For males, creating a more blatant upside-down trapezoid for their upper body for wider shoulders helps, or making it smoother for females does too.
If that doesn't work out, then either the head or limbs are drawn too small to be proportionate to the body. Either or, if the torso or legs appear too long, then maybe they were just drawn a bit long.
Did this explanation help? If it doesn't, I probably need more clarification with drawings. D:

What was that other question you asked about boobs?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

ThatM0useGuy In reply to Auddits [2012-04-05 20:15:12 +0000 UTC]

So in the case that the torso is too long, fix the head to be proportional to it, or widen the shoulders. Thank you! ^^

With the breasts, they keep coming out too small (not like shrinking cup sizes) or too low. Or too high. So size, and placement.

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Auddits In reply to ThatM0useGuy [2012-04-07 07:35:07 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, that was usually my problem before and ended up with people with shorter legs >_< You're welcome !

For breasts, it depends on the torso.
From the length of the torso, find the midpoint of the torso and cut it horizontally. In the middle of that area, is where the breasts start (starting from nipples). It's not that different from a man's pectoral area, just structured a bit differently since the female torso is usually smaller.
Size wise, I'm not that sure of. I usually just go with the flow. Just keep in mind that there is a space allowance where the clavicle notch is. It's a small space. Then the boobs are there. :T

Feel free to show me practice sketches. I'd like to see. ^^

Hi! Here's how far I've come along since last time.

[link]
This is the first full-body character I've fully drawn. The hands are a little small, and the feet lack detail, though. I also kept it a bit cartoon-y.

[link]
This one I finished today. Very happy with how it came out. I went directly back to this tutorial for the hands, specifically the fingers. Kept her head and face super-simple to match up with the stick figure next to her. I still messed up a bit on the eyes, though.

What do you think?

Auddits In reply to ThatM0useGuy [2012-05-24 06:08:34 +0000 UTC]

Definitely got a bit better. Keep up the good work!
You're really improving in a good pace. Keep practicing and working hard, I love seeing improvements c:
