Here's a redline!

Postby coelagirl » Wed Apr 12, 2017 12:51 pm

I'm No Good at drawing animal faces, so I'm afraid I can't help you there, but on the body I have two main points

1. The angle here is not completely clear. I assume you're drawing from a side view, and to that I say the shoulder should be moved up to obscure part of the body. Right now, your character probably has arms coming out of his, like.... shoulder blades. The body is a 3D object, so arms will always be coming out of the sides.

2. Humans have an s-shaped spine (outlined in blue). It means the back curve s into... sort of an s shape?. How much will depend on the character's body type, but overall the body is probably not a box unless the character is REAL cartoony.

See? Check out this stock photo guy!

one shoulder? Check!
s-shaped spine? Check!

Anyway, my number 1 tip? Use a reference photo. Heck, I googled "Person from the side" while I was drawing this! Even breaking those down into basic shapes can really help you!
