To improve my grasp of human anatomy, I'm doing one sketch from a photo reference every day.
Same rules as before:
It has to be done in less than 1 hour, I can only use the one brush (Though I can choose which brush before I start), and I can only use black. No undo, no erase.
I'm not concentrating so much on re-producing the whole picture this time around though, more just trying to get correct looking human body shapes.
The human faces haven't been coming out all that well, so in this one, I decided to go with an anthro Snowleopard face instead.
Gave her spots too, but didn't add a tail.
Drew this one during the Pub Meet on Saturday. Only took 11 minutes!

I've been going for 151 days now actually. Just haven't drawn number 151 yet today, but I'll get it done before midnight!
I feel it's going pretty well. They don't always come out looking spectacular, but I feel pretty confident that they'll come out looking alright most of the time, and those that don't could probably be fixed up with some erasing and redrawing parts of them.
Which means I feel that I could probably offer these sort of pics as fairly cheap commissions since they would only take maybe 30 minutes to do. It's something that I've been thinking I might do at MIDFur.
On the other goals of the project, improving my knowledge and skill in anatomy I'd say it's getting there.
The fact that these are all drawn from photo reference means that I'm not really training my skill at drawing bodies straight out of my head, but I'm getting plenty of experience in seeing how they should look in various poses and so on.
I'd like to be able to draw random poses straight out of my head without using a reference so I might plan my next daily project around that aspect once I decide what's a good process for training that skill.
