Title: [wip] Super!
Post by: elise on May 23, 2008, 03:15:27 pm
I just got Pro Motion and I'm learning how to use it... so I'm making a super hero girl. It'll probably end up being an x-men, probably rogue. ;)

Anyways, I just want to make sure the anatomy and everything is right before I proceed.

attachment of her right leg to her hips seems wrong to me. It should be a bit higher, imho

probably still a bunch of problems, but hopefully this helps:

I changed the leg/hip, edited the arms a bit... but kept them fists because that's usually how Rogue looks.

Better or worse?

I think the pose looks rather awkward. I think it would look better if she was facing the direction she's leaping or flying. It also looks like she's resting on something the way her bent leg is angled, like on a bed and with her hand on her hip. She also looks a bit skinny for a super heroine, I think.

I tried something different with the arm above her head, but now it just looks like she's running, so maybe just stretch it out more where it is or something. I think she just looks too relaxed in my attempt, but maybe you can find some use in it. :)

I tried to compromise. Facing one way, one she doesn't look so super... more like "Whoa, what's going on over there?" and in the other one she's like hovering, waiting for action, I guess...

She's still rather skinny but I'm going for a more manga/anime look I guess you could say.
