Figure sketches are toasty hot. How'd you pick up all that dynamism? Heh. I'm studying anatomy right now - since you seem to have a solid grasp on poses, any tips?

<(_ _)>

Hey-a fellow Pinoy.
I don't really look at anatomy books. I just use my gut and let myself experiment and be influenced by other artists. Hiroaki Samura, who does the Blade of the Immortal manga, is a big influence in regards to the linework and dynamicism. I also exaggerate the shadows, secondary lighting, and musculature. I usually draw on the floor or in a relaxed sitting position. I don't really use those drawing horses or those stands(I hate the stands).
My method is basically what not to do if you want to do classic, grotesquely rendered life drawings. Some of my teachers at my school encouraged experimentation, which I liked. Needless to say, if you are trying to do classic, normal life drawing, experimentation is a bad word.
Attend as much life drawing classes as you can and do personal drawings of whatever you want until until your hand falls off.
The most important, cliche thing is to make every drawing interesting to you and have phun.

Have phun I will! I'm not too into classic, just wanted to make em look right (in a manner of speaking) xD Thanks for the tips. ( 'u' )

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention some stuff.
I do some light roughs of the figure on the paper and draw the figure in over them. I like to draw a main line, usually the spine, that will influence the curvature and placement of every other line in the picture.
The most anatomical thing I keep in mind is the basic universal lengths that each human has, like the arm ends halfway down the thigh but that is influenced by the position of the shoulder. There are several shorthand length tricks like that for body parts. They, of course, can be ignore in instances of exaggeration.
You probably should, for now, draw every part of the body in the drawing. I sometimes cut off the head or hands because I was thinking about the theme of non-identity when I was doing these, but those are usually the most important parts. if you run out of room on the paper just place another paper where the appendage should go and draw there.
God thats a lot of words I just typed.
