Drawing, a Female Heroine

Hello.

Back again with some new work.

Ok with this one its a pretty rushed peace of work
Doing work experience at the moment, and am very bored so i had a sat down and had a draw came up with this so i took it home inked it up, stuck it in my scanner and colored it in, Trying to learn how to draw females at the moment, can never seem to get it right but i am getting the hang of it, and this picture shows my progress so far! I am aware that the coloring is a little rushed, i am touching that up soon! but the main reason i am happy with this drawing is because of the pose, and in my opinion, the Proportion of her body! anyway any comments would be cool! look forward to them! Hope you like

She is teh Orange

The proportions are good but she does have short legs in regards to the upper half of her body.
And the neck! A woman's neck is usually, in this context, thinner.

IMO, what you are missing here is dynamism. Dynamism as in: pose exaggeration and amplification.
Her body is still quite stiff. For me, the rule of thumb, when drawing women, is the reverse twist between the shoulder and pelvis area.
Reverse Twist
The shoulders move in opposite reverse symmetry from the pelvis, creating the main body movement and thus giving you the basis for dynamism in any pose.

Btw, looove the anatomy studies you have on you dev page. Keep am coming!

You got a good start with this, Coston.

The thing to drawing female entities is to remember curves. Think of a male bode as a series of blocks, well the female body is more like a series of arches. Just gotta remember that and, of course, practise practise practise

thanks for the replies guys and the help, great to have some good positive feedback, i understand what you both say, and i will take this into account on my future work, Anyway, i have drawn a few more females, and they can be viewed on my Deviant art, reason being they don't have much to do with Heroes or Heroines. I have been studying anatomy a bit from a guy named Burne Hogarth and his books are amazing and i enjoy learning from them, and have produced ( in my opinion ) much better Human realistic drawings, The link to my deviant art is just under my name as my Sig, So Feel free to take a look at the Human anatomy drawings i have produced on there, Thanks.
