Art Process (Pose Composition!) - July '24 NSFW Continuum Exclusive
Added 2024-07-19 16:29:32 +0000 UTCTWO POSTS IN ONE DAY? WHAT IS THIS? PRODUCTIVITY??? ON MY PATREON?
So here is the (basic) process for working out poses and anatomy in the context of a larger composition. I'm not going to go in depth on How to Anatomy here because that is a post (hell, a book---an entire undergraduate course) all on its own. But hopefully this shows how I think about working up poses and the considerations I make at this stage of the piece.
