Another thing I'm working on for EK. This is a prostitute that works for Escapade. I'm a little iffy about the anatomy in areas... so I'm just looking for some advice before I finish it up. Excuse the poor quality of the drawing, I'm horrible at sketching with my tablet, hehehe.



I'm also not quite sure how to make the bottom of her skirt look tighter. Seems a bit frumpy right now.

Anyway... thanks

Her skirt is too long for a prostide, normally i pick up a prostitude I would pick the one with a very short skirt. Not that I would!!! I I SWEAR, I WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT. DAD IF YOU'RE READING, THAT GIRL WAS JUST BY FRIEND.

Moving on, this is a pic i found that show a pros with a typical prostitude short skirt.

I would sugest you transfer her weight over to one leg so she can get a bit of an angle in her hips and torso, so she doesn't appear so rigid and too atention in her pose. Im not describing it well. her pose is great but it needs more exageration in the pose. her hip angle more obviously tilted upwards where her hand rests on it and her oposite leg opened a little and angled away slightly to compensate for the right hip being a little lower. Damn i could show you by drawing two lines but I dont have a scanner handy, however you know what I mean, I hope. Anyway -- thats a sugestion, otherwise, as always, I love your work.

Dr Bang - This isn't a modern day prostitute, I like her skirt the length it is.

Shiro - Thanks, I'm not too good at drawing entire figures. I'll see what I can do to incorporate your suggestions though

Does this help?

Personally I think I like the first one more... not really sure though. I don't want her to look overly sleazy or like a cheeseball porn star. I tried to make her other foot look farther back...

Jezebel,

I love the feel of the drawing, great attitude in the pose, overall I like it alot. I did a quick sketch-over (need to get a new usb-wacom), and in doing so I noticed a few things.

She's got really wide shoulders, yet her hips aren't very wide, usually galls have bigger hips than shoulders; and she isn't a skinny girl, she's more of a real woman.

Her legs are a bit slim also, there are people like that though. Also, the dress is not aligned with her boobs.

Anyway, here's the quick sketch-over, I changed the position of her legs and accentuated the tilt of the hips a bit more:




I actually like alot how she has her legs together in the original image though (much more than when you moved her foot back), gives her a different attitude. If you want I'll try doing another sketchover, still incorporating the tilt of the hips but leaving her legs a little closer together. Her right foot will probably fall in sideways a bit (classical contraposto-like).


Edit: Just noticed that the picture of the prostitute posted above shows what I mean about one foot falling a bit towards the other.

Also, since it's a sketchover, put it on top of yours in photoshop, not at full opacity, if you want to see what i moved around, i only moved the lines a tiny bit. Your original art is great


HTH,

Ok... I tweaked her a little bit more... I tried adjusting the look of her chest a bit, I narrowed her jawline and I gave her a more volumputous figure

Personally I think those minor changes helped a whooole lot. Especially the shape of the hips/waist.

Where are the herpes blisters and track marks?

One last thing then, since you don't want to change your drawing too much. Her wrists, they're skinny and a bit strange. Her right wrist especially, there's an extra bend there that shouldn't be there (your hand bends at the wrist, you seem to have an extra bone there).

One last thing, the ankles. The inner ankle is a bit higher than the outer ankle, it almost seems you have them reversed.

HTH,
