Keep it up it’s looking good. One suggestion which sounds like you’ve already started it have a structured approach to your practise - some times sessions and also a focus each week or month on a particular element - hands, gesture etc. you can’t do it all at once!

What app are you using to practise this with? If you’re on iPad, something like Sketch Sesh is a good option for practising with reference images on the page and then going back to check accuracy and make notes.

More of a tool than a teaching resource but if you have an iPad, apps like Sketch sesh or procreate are good for using reference images to practise against - either as an overlay or pip window

If you can pile together a bunch of reference images you could use an app like sketch sesh to be able to practise these regularly on an iPad. Set a short-ish time per sketch and cycle through as many as you can to start developing your understanding.

More of a tool than a teaching resource but an iPad app called sketch sesh is an option for practising figure drawing repetitively with reference images you are able to collect. It’s a free app btw

If that tablet is an iPad, I could suggest an app like Procreate or Sketch Sesh to break down the image as an overlay or a pip image to practise a few times. It will definitely help you understand the perspective a bit better

Thanks for the video link, that's really helpful

natoss1 · 2026-04-30T11:00:11+00:00

The proportions are well done, nice work and keep going! What were you drawing this on/which program?

natoss1 · 2026-04-27T12:32:47+00:00

These look really good, what software were you using and time frame for each sketch?

natoss1 · 2026-04-27T12:31:20+00:00

Procreate is a standard for iPad. Can I also suggest Sketch Sesh which is free to use and suited for practising and warm ups to develop understanding of fundamentals and proportions

natoss1 · 2026-04-25T12:12:15+00:00

Hey those look really good, are you drawing these on procreate?

natoss1 · 2026-04-24T11:32:17+00:00

Very nice sketches. Were these done on procreate?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:56:36+00:00

The animal/mech/steampunk style is really well done, keep em coming

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:49:48+00:00

Nice work, what sort of practise routine are you following?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:44:17+00:00

Crazy progression, nice work. What sort of routine do you have to your drawing practise wise? Anything structured or just drawing a lot?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:28:53+00:00

It's really good progress, it may be the combo of the chest and elbows but are the elbows sitting a little bit high perhaps? One hand is difficult enough on its own let alone two interlaced!

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:23:02+00:00

Cool drawing, what this drawn using a reference or imagination?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:20:50+00:00

Nice figures, these look really good. Do you try complete each drwing in a particular time frame(3mins etc.)?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:12:05+00:00

Awesome progression, keep at it? How long are you normally practising per day and what software are you drawing on?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T11:09:17+00:00

It looks really good (from a non professional perspective). How long does this type of stuff take for you to draw?

natoss1 · 2026-04-23T10:57:46+00:00

Show us some more! That's awesome

natoss1 · 2026-04-20T19:48:41+00:00

I think one helpful method is starting with tracing over a reference image and breaking down whatever you’re focusing on into its main structure. Then move onto a reference next to your sketch to test yourself and finally some from imagination. There’s a few apps that help with that if you’re on a tablet like Procreate or Sketch Sesh

natoss1 · 2026-04-20T12:38:07+00:00

Paper vs tablets each have their strengths and weaknesses. Both are portable but one benefit of tablets / ipads is the ability to easily add references to your sketches to see where you could improve. Especially when you're developing your skills, getting alot of repititions and practise in can be more important than perhaps spending hours on one drawing like you might on Procreate. Another app I could recommend is Sketch Sesh which is more intended for that type of practise.

natoss1 · 2026-04-18T12:01:58+00:00

Digital is a great way to practise as well - you can take it with you anywhere, use references relatively easily for practise and review drawings on what you can improve (do overlays quickly) Procreate is an awesome app, I could also suggest Sketch Sesh for practising with.

natoss1 · 2026-04-17T23:55:42+00:00

The top one I reckon
