[WIP]Anatomy Piece-Post

Thanks Ryu for the reference pic.
Update

[legofreak]

im not exactly sure what you were going for but if you gave him shoulders and places his nipples in the right place it might look like what you were expecting out of it

[Ryumaru]

heres an image of mine that seems to help lots of beginners:

although, once youve gotten the most out of that little piece( not much) i suggest you buy an anatomy book or gather a collection of good refrences on the net.

I think what you've done is learnt how to AA, and gone crazy on something that most likely needed some basic changes. over done the AA imo, and maybe you wanted abstract but maybe being abstract is an excuse for not taking the time to learn fundamental anatomy?

I would try to learn anatomy, but I hate doing realistic pieces, it is way to limited IMO.
Thanks Ryu, I will see what I can do.

when i first saw this i was like: "WTF UTERUS?!" and then i realized it was a torso.

In any case, it looks good so far, give him legs.

I am bumping this because I made a major update.
Blew it up 200%

arhh, I don't think its right basically copying the reference image, I'd personally try something completely different and try interpret what you've learnt into making it better.. But I suppose you're still in the basic learning stages, whatever gets ya goin  . check out the reference's shoulders compared to you'res, you dont have em. And the chest area is too sparse, looks shrivveled. Also, try not to mirror too much, just to get the structure balanced, otherwise you'll start pillowshading and everything will look unnatural.

He didn't copy the reference. The original piece was like this (though probably still inspired by ryu, it seems). He just made it bigger.
He needs hips.
The arms are really wonky. Looke like he's got rickets or something in the forearm. The shoulders are really flat.
I dunno what the part beneath the armpit is, but I don't think it curves in like that right under the arm.
The abdomen seems kind of abstract and not showing any kind of...abs. Like, what's with that upside-down beneath his chest?

[Soup]

So it not all that great.
But I don't think it is too bad for my first try. I am currently working on another piece, to work on anatomy.
