This brings back some memories of drawing studio in college...I like the last one the best...you have captured the line of motion well here I think.

The second pic has it goin' on.

Great use of negative space. Try defining the figure with more shading and less lines. There are very few lines in nature. What our early training in art has taught us are lines, are actually edges of shapes. Trust your eyes. If you draw as you see, others will see as you did.

This is something my art teacher told everyone in the class over and over again:

<b>Always draw the feet!</b>

The feet really define where the subject stands in space. It helps determine their balance and their movement... it's really quite important. Plus it looks kinda weird to have stub-legged models I If you're afraid to draw feet because you aren't good at it, do it anyway... that's the only way to improve. If you're running out of time, get the whole drawing down first (with the feet) as quickly as you can, then go back to adding in details if you have more time.

My 2 cents. I like the last one best as well. But I'd like her more with both feet

Im guessing the numbers on the pics are minutes, if so I like your 3 minute drawing.

Actually, don't concern yourself with the feet themselves. Instead try to draw the *whole* figure on the page, don't cut off anything. So drawing a quick form of a foot will do, don't worry about drawing toes and all that.
