Any artists out there?

I am going to be working on a new anime character for my OC collection, and she will be a nurse! Kind of pay tribute to america's front-line nurses!

The first bit of detail, her name is Natsumi, which means summer beauty!

Try to find a reference picture, and sketch out where the joints are. Use circles for joints (elbows, wrists, knees, ankles), and connect them with lines. For the body, use a couple of different box sizes for the chest and waist, and then use a sort of smooshed pentagon for the hips.
The hands and feet are tricky, but remember that every part of the human body can be drawn with basic shapes -- I use little rounded squares/rectangles for the hands, and sort of triangles for the feet, depending on the angle.
I'll try to sketch up a body how I do it later to try and help explain visually what I mean.

Lol, I can’t draw basic shapes. I just do blobs that are vaguely shaped like limbs and then refine them. My standing person starts as a top line for the shoulders and two other lines that would be the sides of the body, all the way to the floor.

How's everyone doing today?

experimenting with painting auroras on a scrap canvas. In general I like it but need a bit more practice.. Using some GITD pigments too so they have a nice glow at night.
