Dessin de figure pour débutants – Dessiner le torso

Hello again, apologies for the delay. Thank you for the kind words also, I'm glad these classes are helping you out.  So, overall, this is a pretty good start, the last page of sketches in particular are the best.  For some of the other sketches, there's a little bit of inconsistency to work on. In particular the poses with the torso leaning forward towards the audience, or leaning away from the audience. You've got the right idea using the cylinder as a guide for your positioning (first page), but you're using more egg shapes for your ribcage and torso.  Try using cylinders for these instead. The egg shapes for the ribcage and pelvis are good for more upright poses, but tend to be a bit harder to use for poses that have the torso leading towards or away from the viewer. Spheres/eggs don't have any external corners, so that makes them tricker to use for tilting positions. Cylinders do have a corner, so they are more useful for the tilting positions as they provide more 3D information to us, whilst also being rounded. So, what I would suggest doing is practice your tilting poses with the cylinder as your underlying shape for the torso.  You're making really good progress here compared to your first projects posted a few weeks back.  Your figures have a lot more structure, better proportions and better gestures, so keep going with this, you're doing well. :)

Thank you very much, teacher. I am going to practice the cylinder from now on, for the figures that are positioned forward. I want to practice more digitally, but I don't have Procreate, I use Krita. Is there any advice you can give me?

Hello again, I'll go over both of your projects tomorrow and get you feedback then. Looks good a first glance! :)

Thank you teacher, It's because of his way of teaching.
