Figure Quick Sketch Video: How to Construct The Limbs
This video is demonstrates how to construct the limbs (how the draw the limbs) during a figure quick sketch drawing. The video demonstrates basic figure construction of the arms and legs. Topics covered include gesture drawing, anatomy and landmarks. There are examples from 3 different poses. Narrated by the artist.
This is the video version of the how to construct the limbs tutorial.






hey man!
great tutorials. i hope your efforts get noticed more and you can also make a mark as a teacher. you really make it look easy. thanks for the inspiration!
yongwoo.
Thanks Yongwoo! Well, I’ve had some great teachers who continue to inspire me. I’m just doing what I can to spread the love.
you explain thing very clearly, massive thumbs up – thanks for your help
THanks LLoyd! I hope you get a chance to go out and apply the techniques
this has helped so much, its so much more enjoyable to draw when theirs a technique that you can use which works – thanks to you im at my waccom all the time

Thanks Z. Wacom is great but I hope you go out and draw from life too. Getting skilled with pen and charcoal will exponentially improve your digital work.
Hey, I’m just starting out with drawing basically but I’m kind of confused about how I should approach it. Should I learn it in a way that is purely constructable out of the mind or should I at first hand just focus on observational drawing.
for example, should I just start observational drawing (by lifedrawing or photoreference) in order to gain a likeness of target,
or should I apply a constructual method on top of my observations. in order to be eventually able to draw without a reference.
thanks in advance,
could you give me some directions on this please, I like your videos, they inspire me.
Thanks Nero. I believe drawing from observartion is best for building foundation. Figure drawing, still life, landscape, etc. Once you have a strong foundation you can pretty much draw/freehand anything you want.
