You may wonder how I usually compose my drawings. There are several ways to achieve realistic poses, using a 3D modelling app is one of the methods I am using. Once I set up the character pose, I can move the camera views around and pick the best view for my initial sketch. Then adding background, details of characters of course the amputations to them. This is the scene Ben is carrying Maryann to her bedroom. Which one do you pick? Please let me know in the comments.
