I brought myself a copy of Alex Loomis’s “Figure Drawing for All It’s Worth”, an old-style guide to figure drawing from the period in history when illustrations filled magazines and popular media. I’ve been idly copying the figures in it, but I noticed that all the naked ladies are wearing high-heels.

I’m not so good at the whole figure. I’m a lot more confident with heads these days, but the actual human figure often ends up a bit… bendy if I draw without reference. I was drawing a lot of people off the TV, but I’ve started watching the Danish crime-drama “The Killing”, and I can’t doodle and read the subtitles at the same time.
