Description

done for no other reason then to show off the differences between males bodies and females bodies. (in an extremely exaggerated way) I drew this on two separate pages but for convince and comparisons sake I combined them.

now I'm not exactly a drawing instructor, as a student I really shouldnt be complaining about how anyone draws ever. but one thing I DO know that has become a pet peeve of mine is lack body variance between males and females. the generic thing to do it make a standard shapeless body and add boobs if it's a girl.

sorry, wrong answer- do not pass go do not collect 200$

when I was but a wee little artist I did this thing- and THATS why so many people confused my male chracter for girls and my girls for men. it took me awhile before I figured out it's not just dress or the face that matter,s it's the BODY... women have curves where men have bumps, etc- but HERES the thing that most people don't pick up on and thats hip the shoulder ratio.... mens shoulders are generally wider then their hips and girls hips are the same width or wider then their shoulders. ( duh girls hips have to be wider becuase we yaknow--- push babies out threw there) once I made this realization it hit me like a ton of bricks thats why people were gender confusing my chracters so much.

so now I have devised a little formula for everything I draw. for men- wide shoulders + tiny hips, for girls tiny shoulders + big hips, androgynous / gender fuck chracter same width for hips and shoulders. dont like wide shoulders on guys? make em narrower- as long as the hips are more narrow then they are, same thing with girls but in reverse don't like wide hips? make em narrower as long as the shoulders are smaller. it's in all the major anatomy books you'll come across.

and THATS my art rant for the month. don't like it? have a stamp
