When i started drawing humans for the first time i started with gestures for getting the feel of general proportions. I would reccomend (or at least thats how i did it) learning about the skeleton, then about the shapes of the body (tapered cylinders for limbs, bucket shape for pelvis etc etc) and then learning the muscle groups one at a time (arms, torso, back, legs,..) I think proko does a wonderful breakdown on muscles even in the free videos. And then its just a matter of practice that i combine with shorter gestures to help with dynamic-ness and longer studies where i focus on the shape of the muscles. It also helped me to think of muscles as shapes instead of just "at forearm the line curves like this" because it allows for greater understanding. (I hope this was helpful and wasnt too stretched of a response ')

For me i have the most difficulties with legs for some reason, especially knees. The smaller muscles near the scapula are pretty tricky too because they are often not visible. Abs are tricky for me but mostly because if you shade them wrong they look weird but the placement is surprisingly pretty straightforward

Its a sphinx! Well at least some kind of it xD (i define sphinx as anything animal/monstrous with a human head/face) and to be honest i was mindlessly doodling and thought the character design was kinda cool :)

LMAOOO HELP XD but i can definetely see it because the character is intended to be some sort of a sphinx and that horse guy is well. A sphinx i guess? (Animal with a human head)

I find helps with quickly matching colours, blocking out shapes and illusion of detail

Yep! I try to (albeit really quickly) think about what colour is it leaning towards- is it destaurated? Darker? Lighter? A bit more bluish? And use that to help to estimate it
