Description

This was requested, "How I draw my men/guys"
Note: I am not saying I can perfectly draw guys or anything like that. This just
some quick tips that can hopefully help you improve your drawing skills. 

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Knees are Sharp: 
   
Yes, when drawing knees and legs on men they're much sharper compaired to women. This is in the stance if the man is much more muscular, and does not have lots of fat. 

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Small Hips:
    I've been analizing artwork and what I've noticed what some people do is they turn men hips inward. NNOOOOO!!! Men have a box like shape, and sometimes a triangle shape. The only time you will ever see the hips strangely small is if they have extremely muscular pectorals. 

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Elbow Joint Placement:
    What I see people struggle on the most is when the placement of the hand and elbow when arms are relaxed at the side. The elbow joint should reach MID-RIB CAGE, and their hand should reach MID-THIGH. Of course this would change if you had different body choices, but in general, yes.

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Blocky Fingers:
    Now don't take this the wrong way and start drawing boxed fingers. This means men have a more square shaped fingers, instead of like women where they curve into a oval. 

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Thicker Neck: 
    As is says, men have much thicker necks compaired to women. 

Dot Bullet (Black) - F2U! Sharp Jawline:

    Of course this can easily change on body weight, face shape, and genetics, but in general men jawline can be very sharp. 

I hope this helps and if you have any questions just comment below!

So after a few polls and asking people. I have decided
to help people improve their
artwork and everything of the sort! I am in no
way saying I am a professional. I myself am still learning, but I would
say I have a good grip on how to make art look good!
I will be analyzing, correcting,
and bulleting ideas on how to improve your work. I will
be telling you the truth, and you may not like what
I have to say. It happens, but if you're not willing to allow people to
help you. You will NEVER grow.
In the video I will show you some of
my own old work, and compare it to my new work.
You can see how much I've grown.
Every drawing in the video will be shown, along with
the artist (unless you'd like to be anonymous idk why) and will
be worked with.
Understand you must be watching me on DeviantArt,
