Well, I finally got around to making a schedule to draw and I ended up doing a lot today.

I was doodling for quite a bit and this one caught my eye so I drew it.

I did more besides these and the one in the weekly drawing thread but they aren't worth posting.

I'm still stuck at the point where I can't make things look like the way I picture them in my head, Also for the last few pictures I have been colouring, how do they look?

So, I decided to try folds because I remember I could never make them look decent, The figure at the top is the base I built the clothing off of.
Any critique on the figures or the folds would be appreciated.

Your daily picture needs a focal point from where all lines are drawn from. The buildings on the street appear to be twisting in an odd way. I'd suggest looking up articles on drawing in perspective.

Human anatomy problems:
 - Arms too long. They should be ending with the tips of the hand stopping just above the knee of a person in a neutral stance.
 - Legs too big. The legs should also be more slender in most cases. Unless she's quite muscular they shouldn't be that wide.
 - Head too small. The human body is about 8 heads long. This one is about 12 or more.
 - Breasts are weird, especially the fold of skin under them. There are several good tutorials for drawing breasts out there, just look some up and try them out.
 - The pose seems forced and unnatural, but that can be fixed with practice. Try this site for a more structured practice: http://www.posemaniacs.com/

Just be warned that it can be quite quick if you're not used to drawing poses. Draw the shape and then come back to detail it if you still have time. The shape is the most important thing, because where the weight is being placed is determined with the shape.

Indeed. In its current state, it looks like it's being contorted into a horrific shape no man could ever form with his body.

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

I forgot there was a colour bar in photoshop and all this time I've been colouring these in the basic swatches that are in photoshop. I actually think this one came out fairly well.

Looks like you're getting into it!
Maybe it's time to take some time on a picture and try out everything you learned?

Well, I found out why terkiry couldn't see the images, Sadpanda.us (the image host) doesn't work in South America.

I really have reservations about making his head a toaster, I want to make an all kitchenware version of this and an all kitchen appliance version.

Sorry about that terkiry, The place I found out that Sadpanda doesn't work in other countries only mentioned South America so I just assumed you were there.
