Loomis is pretty good for figure drawing.

>>2869434
Also, is it best to now go ahead and start isolating body parts to understand them better?

That's what I'm going to do now, but I'm certain there's a good, fast way to go about it.

>>2869435
I've already read his book on figure drawing for all it's worth, but I might head back to it to see if there's anything new in there.

You break it down further into more accurate shapes that look more like the figure itself.

Once you're getting the forms into perspective down, look up reference models, construct them lightly, and draw what you see over your construction.

Thanks for the much needed direction.

>>2869474

May I ask what you are using in OP?

>>2869441
if you read it then you would know to break down the body into more sophisticated shapes and planes

if op is your work you are still inaccurate with boxes

>>2869475
Clip Studio Paint.

A friend got it for me.

>>2869478
The model is actually rotated from when I drew it since it's 3D software.

>>2869478
There also might be incorrect boxes on that. That was prior to me realizing I just had to visualize a phone case in my mind and rip the vanishing points from it to get it accurately.

just an fyi

But I want to draw realistic people so I can draw good comic books.

>>2869505
hard to tell you realy went town on that drawing

In case the drawing in the pic is yours, OP.

You should learn to place the character in a 3-point perspective to gain a sense of scale and depth.

>>2869523
That anon's approach does not exclude realism. The point of that post is that you shouldn't just study realistic people in a vacuum. Try to make those good comic books. And in the process, to make them good, you will be forced to draw realistic people. You'll use your imagination for what you can do, but if you need to, you'll need to get reference for human anatomy, perspective, color, composition, and do studies of those things. The important part is that this kind of studying is purposeful, not just grinding to "gain xp and level up" until you can just suddenly draw comics. That's just not how it works. Drawing comics is a skill of its own, studying figures and anatomy in a vacuum will not help you reach that nearly as well as... actually drawing comics. And, when you need it, using reference and study to make the current panel you're working on look exactly like you want it to.

>drawing is 'x'

post his work

>>2869802
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that pic is two point perspective

>>2870515
you are correct. the horizontal lines should also be going to a singular point of their own. instead they are just parallel

?step 4:profit

is it 3D model? source?

You need to go lighter in drawing. I'd also suggest checking out George Bridgman's work/books.

You should be able to find them for free if you're not interesting in buying them. The structure in Bridgman's work is very neat and tidy for what it is.
