I was just wondering if you people can give me some tips on drawing the following:
Hair (male and female)
Muscles on a body (how to emphasise to get big muscles and what to do with the body to get the effect)
Drawing the body Figure (male and female) - i know how to do this but i just want to know some better ways as i am finding my way little hard to use.
and any other good effects like clothing and stuff for sourcerer type people and wizard and knights.
I know im a pain but I would love your help! |

What medium are you using?
If you need ideas on anatomy (muscles and bodies) you should get a book on it or find some good reference picturers to get an idea of form. |

Hogarth uses this "overdone" style to illustrate the proportions. I like his books very much, and find them VERY useful. You must keep in mind, that there's no need to really DRAW in his stylised manner, but to use this scheme to learn about anatomy. |

| find some life drawing courses in you're area. it's the best way to practice and learn, oh most importantly develop you're own style. |
