Deji's redline/redraw thread (re-open Dec 2014!)

[kitsubasa]

Hi Deji! I have a lot of trouble with elbows and feet. I don't quite understand how elbows are supposed to work, how to judge how long they should be, and how the muscles around them are supposed to go. These are the best elbows I've drawn (though the hands are pretty awful), would you be able to redline or redraw and give advice on how to improve my elbows from here? (pose is a little weird because this was mostly done to use as a character design, and I wanted the back of one hand clearly visible while I played around with glove details/embellishments)

I actually don't have as much grasp on anatomy as I should >>; I should spend more time studying it >:
What I do to get around it is to just use the mirror and take A LOT of webcam snapshots of myself for reference, in whatever pose I need to draw.

So using that and my anatomy book I went and redlined your drawing. Hope it helps :'D

And some helpful links I found for you if you wish to look at and study some references

Hello!
I'm really sorry to bother you, but do you still offer help through redlining pieces of art? (If not it's okay, we all know how busy you are )
If you still do though, may I ask some help?
I started doing this scene, that should be warm/cute/(slightly-sexy?)/write-here-any-feelings-that-comes-to-your-mind, but.. Okay I suck at putting 2 characters in the same picture The girl probably has many anatomy issue (mainly because I have no idea how those two people really are sitting or whatever they're doing X'D(cross-legged for the guy I assumed)). Could you please help me?

(Oh forget the coloring, I tried something and it doesn't work)
Again, sorry to bother and have a nice evening/morning/afternoon
