Hadou's picture
.3. woop, what is anatomy? I need help man,
oh, and this pose... I don't even...
like, it jumped and now it's floating and landing... or something like that.
I couldn't fit it on the canvas standing, so I had to make it fit, aha, this was how.

maybe it's on the moon? no gravity?
cx just leave it, it's a possible pose I swear...

I'll use these for something, maybe color it and use it to make gifts for people, ya know. fun stuff.

anyway, help me? I'll love you forever if you do, the leg's just... look weird.

I'm aware it has no tail, I'll add that later... ;P

The only problem, if I can

The only problem, if I can even call it a problem, would be the "knee" on the back leg. it looks bent a little wonky but hell, it looks like your own style. So who am I to complain when my own style sucks? xD

I like it looks fine and I love the pose Smiling

hey there! Currently no

hey there! Currently no tablet connected to the computer, otherwise I could do a redline, but here is some hopefully helpful advice. Overall I think it's a good start, especially the neck and the part between the front legs.

I think the biggest problem is the legs and their joints. I'm not sure what sort of creature you are going for here - canine or ungulate? If it is a deer, look at deer pictures and see where the joints are, that would probably be helpful (and make it easier to find a good pose too!). If your program allows it, try to make the canvas bigger or scale down the figure so it fits better. More freedom that way.

I found some pictures with similar poses, there you can see how the legs and joints work too.

(If it's a canine, look at pictures of canines instead, obviously)

Hope that helped a little. :>


e; and yeah like SoliloquyChryseis said, the back leg has some weird thing going on where it meets the belly, it should be rounder; right now it almost looks like an extra joint.

Something like this?

c: thank you so much ! that's

c: thank you so much !
that's very helpful, I'll fix it right up, and post that, and see if it's closer to what it needs to be .3.

but, yes I'm going for deer, I didn't look at a reference, which I obviously should have cx, and I'm going to be doing that more often aha.
and the program I use doesn't let you do that /: sadly.

lkjdfn still though, thank you so much c:

-Rells the red line also helped !

i agree with SoliloquyChryseis, everything is lovely except the left back leg looks kinda noodley.
