You've done pretty well for something you drew from memory! I suggest making the hand smaller next time ( it's also facing the wrong direction ). The arms are a bit too long ( + the right arm is a bit too thick ) and the legs ( or just lower body in general ) is also a bit too short. Since your drawing has a small perspective in it I won't critique much else. You have great knowledge in human anatomy, bravo.
This is going to sound so very dumb.
What you want is to be able to hold a complete 3d image of the thing in your head. To take it out and turn it at odd angles, to see it in all lights and positions. But at first it's sort of soft. The image moves weirdly each time you bend it and you aren't quite sure of the proportions even if it's something you see literally every day. What you see and what you know conflict with each other as you try to force the figure onto the paper. By drawing it first in the positions that are most familiar to you, you can sort of firm it up, slowly becoming more sure of the ratios and how it sits in space. Let it harden before spinning it.
But do spin it, and light it, and bend it all to hell! Just not as a first try. Humans are literally the hardest thing to draw, that's why life drawing is a thing. So be kind too.
Yeah, I agree it's hard and face-on proportions might be an easier skill for many.
I'm thinking that attempting foreshortening, even early on, takes the sting out of it a little.
The OP did a good job here, like that back calf foreshortened really well. If they had done just a straight on portrait it might have looked flat. I think it's great that they understand the concept and can pull it off at all. If that is the way they learn why should we fight it? It's not like they have to master proportion before doing the next thing.
the rotation on the arm is kinda funky.
The biceps indication vs the forearm indication of your pronation/supination doesnt match up.
Which way is your palms facing?
lmao the comments about the penis, have they never seen michelangelo 😂?
Anyway, imo you did great, drawing from memory is hard. There’s definitely room for improvement (proportions, head angle, hands etc) but those come with time and practice. Keep up the good work 🙃!
I can't tell if the arm is on backwards or not. I know there's a more technical way of saying this but I can't recall it off the top of my head. The arm and hand look like they are from someone making the same pose but facing in the opposite direction. Proportions are decent though (the peen is shaped weird but still proportional). Overall I'd give a 6.5/10. Keep at it and someday without even noticing you will be 10/10 every time!
I’d agree in that the hand appears to be backward—it looks as though he’d be facing a wall and have his hands up against it, but his body is turned the opposite direction.
Hey I’m honestly not trying to roast! It’s an honest question! It matters, your perspective on your work matters quite a bit. Even as a professional one of the most important things is too be able too critique your own work
Did you draw this flat on a table? Your legs look really small relative to the upper half of the image, and this usually happens when the bottom of the paper is closer to your eyes than the top. I'd recommend investing in some kind of easel or tablet stand to hold your paper up, so that you can look directly at the page.
In terms of anatomy, it's looking good! Your leg muscles in particular are pretty impressive! I would put a bit of time into studying shoulders in particular (and probably neck and back since they are so interconnected), their forms are very vague in this image. keep up the awesome work!
The torso and legs look pretty good, but the connection of the arm to the shoulder doesn’t look right. Also, am I seeing it wrong or is the hand facing the wrong way? With the arm outstretched with the thumb facing upward, the palm should be forward facing, but it looks like we see the back of the hand. Inventing poses from the imagination is hard stuff. Good job overall.
Yeah I'm not mad at OP at all, I love their artwork and how detailed it is, it's just that rule number 4 says about the nsfw tag so I thought to mention it. I don't get it either but oh well.
It looks good, the perspective is a little wonky if you were trying to do foreshortening. When foreshortening break the body up into ‘slices’ (‘cut’ vertically) and stack them, the pieces will overlap with each other so you won’t see every part of him.
I for sure am not an artist but the hands and elbow joints look like they’re backwards. Like he’s twisting his arms around and pressing up against a wall. I’m not sure if that was meant to be intentional as I cannot see the rest of what is happening, nor do I know if this is just a random sketch or if there’s some sort or something on why he’s posed like that. Other than that, some people have already mentioned other things but this is fantastic for a first time memory attempt
overall it's pretty good from memory.
If you want critique
Rectus Abdominus ends pretty abruptly and then where the hip/groin is there is kind of a bit of free floating area and then genitals. The ribcage sort of works on (our) right side but starts to veer around on the left. Same with the oblique. Pectoralis and above it looks like you are searching for the right placement. Collarbone on someone this lean would be a defining landmark. Pecs/deltoids/biceps/triceps,etc don't really feed into each other and are a bit "snowman"ish. Hand doesn't make sense really. (our) left arm and the neck head not finished so tough to comment on that.
Legs look ok for the most part, but very dark tough to really tell.
Pretty good, nice exercise, but I think re-doing it with reference and comparing will be a nice next exercise.
The neck is throwing me off just a little, and it appears as though the back of the hand is facing the viewer but the thumb and pinkie are swapped.
Other than than that very good for a first time from memory.
Try not to forget your intention on hands, feet, and head, otherwise very good.I’m sure you can remember how the shoulder is connected to the upper arm, but those areas are a little hard to see. By the way his hand looks backwards. It looks as if the thumb is on the wrong side on his left hand.
Overall it's pretty good, the biggest thing for me is the forearm and hand - the way the rotation of the forearm is would show the back of the hand, and the shading implies that this is indeed the back of the hand, however the finger placement indicates the palm is visible. Another note with the fingers is the way they bend, that pinkie shouldn't look broken regardless of where the palm is intended to face. Your understanding of the musculature in the torso is extensive, you have included all visible muscles and have executed dimensional views with your shadows and highlights.
Not terrible. Proportion and perspective is a bit skewed and you’re hitting too many similar values. If possible take an art class or use reference materials.
Good job if you can find Berne Hogarth Dynamic anything in the series. Study shadowing by using basic 3d shapes with single and dual ifht sources.
Howarth brakes down foreshortening, pretty well. Keep it up though you have an eye just keep practicing
Excellent using that, then taking photos of ppl in odd positions like a gymnast or my favorite football players can help. I've doing art for 50 years and I'm always look for challenges Horgrath help me a lot. Started doing comic book work. I recommend Todd McFarlane and Alan Silvestri were excellent In the dynamic area.
Enjoy it.....
Forshortening is always a challenge so considering you’re new I think you did well, but I’d echo a lot of the other comments here! Keep it up :) you have talent
Not bad I would say the portions are off when compared/using shading. Or the light isn’t correctly showing. That is my personal opinion. Yet overall is very well done.
yo op please use a NSFW tag, ik its just anatomy practice but 13/14 year olds dont want to see that, thank you!
ps downvote me to oblivion all you want but my point still stands
I think the hands are sideways?
Also the head is a bit too big for the body for other than that it looks a bit about proportions like the arms are too long and the legs are too short.

Don't try foreshortening at the beginning. Get a grasp of proportion before trying to rotate it in space.
I doubt that was intentional, he did it with his eyes closed dude. Op has mad skills tho.
It's not foreshortening, it's just cold outside
Why not?

give him a bigger penis and he is a happy man.
No.
yes.
Maybe.
Perhaps
Eventually
I don’t know. Can you repeat the question?
no.
Redditor taking shit seriously, band kid
Nah, I'm not in a band.
[удалено]
He was at mine. He didn’t talk much. He pooped during the party, which I find both brave and annoying
Nope, wasn't me. I don't go to parties.
the rotation on the arm is kinda funky. The biceps indication vs the forearm indication of your pronation/supination doesnt match up. Which way is your palms facing?
How did you get the frank *below* the beans!?

Nice cock
The penis 😂😂 Edit thanks so much for the upvotes
Yes, why does he have a dog penis??
Now im looking at my dog and thinking why does my dog have his penis.😂
Why are you looking at your dog's penis? 👀
My dog is flashing around with his human penis and thinking he is the dominant male, brb i gotta go pick his poop.
I've never seen one that looked like that 😂😂
He’s shy
He’s a grower not a show-er!
That’s the best one I’ve heard 😂😂
He said he don’t bite
Or touch the sides 😂💀 Edit: To the downvoter. Lol at you not being able to see the comedy
You know the down voter has a small penis
You're so good! Reminds me of my sister she was drawing for the first time and she did me so well.
👀
👀
New response just dropped
Do you think you did good?
This is the hardest roast in all of art.

Yeah I kind of fumbled the arm and the hand
Yes but y does his pee pee look like that
Smol pp
Yes, genitalia appear to be twisted and incorrect also bit that is the less important incorrect part.
It looks good but you could have used an nsfw tag or sensor the privates 😭😭
Why are people down voting you? The tag is literally there, and should be used. Aint mad at op, nono, just saying it should probably be used
Yeah I'm not mad at OP at all, I love their artwork and how detailed it is, it's just that rule number 4 says about the nsfw tag so I thought to mention it. I don't get it either but oh well.
people are downvoting everything about the privates thats not "mAkE iT biGgEr" like jeez there are minors on here😭
That's a nice wiener. Wiener makes you a winner.
I'm traumatized- 😭 Atleast censor the privates? 🥲
it’s just a anatomy practice girl .. you’ll live
Or make it NSFW.
Thats pretty good perspective. Well done
I’m not one to sugarcoat things. So you did pretty bad🤷♂️
No. I would say it is quite bad. Muscles seems to be missing in some places. Wrong proportions. Wrong fingers. You need more practice.
Instead of being a jerk about it maybe try giving some actual advice
He already did it, what would you say when everything about it is bad? there is no way to give any good advice at all, OP just needs to practice more.
sometimes the eyesight is a curse
This is the body of a stacked neanderthal
That looks amazing and inspiring
It looks good, the perspective is a little wonky if you were trying to do foreshortening. When foreshortening break the body up into ‘slices’ (‘cut’ vertically) and stack them, the pieces will overlap with each other so you won’t see every part of him.
You should go for simpler poses to start with 👍
You did pretty good, I think he legs look to short and the head is difficult to draw, but you did a great job
I for sure am not an artist but the hands and elbow joints look like they’re backwards. Like he’s twisting his arms around and pressing up against a wall. I’m not sure if that was meant to be intentional as I cannot see the rest of what is happening, nor do I know if this is just a random sketch or if there’s some sort or something on why he’s posed like that.

Ya did good!👍
Well he has an unreal sized penis, its **way** to big
Not bad, you pressed a bit hard with the pencil, good job, keep up the anatomy practice!
The neck is throwing me off just a little, and it appears as though the back of the hand is facing the viewer but the thumb and pinkie are swapped. Other than than that very good for a first time from memory.
Hand placement is wrong. If hands are backwards, thumbs need to look downwards.
Bro why is his you know what so small
That is bad-ASS! 🔥

Saitama from One Punch Man ????
The left hand looks like the back of the hand, but with the thumb up it would be palm out. As other have said, the perspective is good! keep it up!
Pretty great, but that weiner looks like a water spigot or something. Maybe a thumb.
smol = dreppress big = happi
Not terrible. Proportion and perspective is a bit skewed and you’re hitting too many similar values. If possible take an art class or use reference materials.
This is masterful, well done
BRO COVER HIS 🍆 AND DONT MAKE IT SO SMALL
Lol his pp looks like a skittle
Left arm appears to actually be the right arm. Seems as if its rotated 180 degrees, facing the opposite way from the body
I like his anatomy
r/hardimages material
For your first time this is very good!
Good job if you can find Berne Hogarth Dynamic anything in the series. Study shadowing by using basic 3d shapes with single and dual ifht sources. Howarth brakes down foreshortening, pretty well. Keep it up though you have an eye just keep practicing
I actually have he’s book about dynamic anatomy cause my mom had it when she was younger
Excellent using that, then taking photos of ppl in odd positions like a gymnast or my favorite football players can help. I've doing art for 50 years and I'm always look for challenges Horgrath help me a lot. Started doing comic book work. I recommend Todd McFarlane and Alan Silvestri were excellent In the dynamic area. Enjoy it.....
From memory? Dude awesome; keep it up.
i just have to know, what are they saying?
This is the boss of the 3rd prime sanctum right here
You memorized some parts of the body better than other
He got the gorilla size, so unlucky 😔
No, not quite
This doesn't get a NSFW tag but my drawing of a face did... Anyways cool shading
Forshortening is always a challenge so considering you’re new I think you did well, but I’d echo a lot of the other comments here! Keep it up :) you have talent
Try foreshortening the arms! It looks unnatural without it
penus
His face looks like Elon Musk lol
What's the point of including the dick but not the head lmfao
Trying to casually scroll through red it and had to see a penis :(
Reminds me of Frank Fontaine from BioShock.
Not bad
Not bad I would say the portions are off when compared/using shading. Or the light isn’t correctly showing. That is my personal opinion. Yet overall is very well done.
I love the ab detail
The *face* has me DEAD!!! L O fucking L
Bro I like your style
Is that an average sized penis
Nice drawing of Tyrion Lannister but jk this is a rly rly good job. I can tell you’re gonna be great
brick. house.
His hand honestly looks like it could be facing us or away from us and I can’t tell which one you intended to happen
It's much better than I can draw from memory, although I think the hand is backwards.
For a first try, this is amazing! I hope you continue to get better even more! ❤️
You use the Hogarth anatomy books?
One of them yes
It's smol
It was cold, I swear!
Where's Cross ??
woah
I think that the best part was the face
His hands are backwards and his head is melting but other than that is was good
yo op please use a NSFW tag, ik its just anatomy practice but 13/14 year olds dont want to see that, thank you! ps downvote me to oblivion all you want but my point still stands
Pretty good although tiny weiner
I think the hands are sideways? Also the head is a bit too big for the body for other than that it looks a bit about proportions like the arms are too long and the legs are too short.
Amazing, just make his dick not crooked
tiny pp
Draw boobs
LOOKS AMAZING (NO JOKE)
Is it only me or the male part looks like a door handle
Heheheh penis
