Added 2025-11-03 02:21:45 +0000 UTC

Hello everyone, I hope yall having an amazing weekend and have a nice new week, just remember if you are a final color tier member, read the latest post (its about comms and how the monlty sketch will work)

Now for this study: male bodytypes

Some thoughts before I share my notes and resourses

- Thoughts: Male anatomy is a really weird territory for me to draw, bizarrely I have kind of shame drawing it (because my skill is really lacking lol) but I have been liking it more and more because of some of monthly skecth ideas and more, I will draw more on my skecthbook on the next couple of weeks so wait for some more MANLY MAN or twinks

- Notes + resoursers:

- Male anatomy is interesting because of the higher muscle mass and inverted proportions (smaller hips and bigger torsos compared to ladies). It gives more fun shape ideas overall (that doesn't mean you can do ladies with this kind of proportions but it's hard work), I recommend you work from silhouette + Gesture to shapes when doing male characters (as I do on the timelapse). This one was more of a test than the full study just working on the technique

Here the videos that I used:
