Some sketches from my sketchbook. I used ink again to inhibit any erasing  - just do it.
soemtime I found a box shape helpful or a 'stick' diagram to put the shoulders , hips and limb directions in place before adding shapes. I felt I was getting the head in the right place a bit better this time and a 'flow' around the body that I tried to stress with a blue line.
