Hey guys!
Okay so in this one we are focusing on the beginnings of how to draw the human form. As with most any drawing if you want accuracy then you must nail your proportions. If you don't get your proportions correct then your drawing will NOT look right. However, this video is the beginner's guide to best practices when it comes to practicing your form proportions. All you need is a manikin and some sketch pencils. I hope it helps, cheers!
