Amazing amazing life drawing studio in Bethnal green ! Even served cheese and wine during the break! The model contextualized his poses in 'war scenes', quite playful.

Evolved from Octopus : Air Pilot
As a follow up to previously uploaded sea creature paintings and studies, here is a character concept for the air pilot. the thought was to reimagine a human, who evolved from Octopus instead of chimpanzees. I used this little project to familiarise myself with male anatomy and muscles.

Anatomy and Animal References
Burne Hogarth's books Dynamic Anatomy and Dynamic Hands are some best systematisation's of human anatomy. Sculptural drawings leave no gap for imagining the shapes in 3D. My thoughts were to study and use his interpretations of human anatomy instead of photo-realistic ones, as Hogarth's drawings follow anatomy and have this exaggeration/stylisation and well, dynamicism, which is inspiring .
A collection of some references on body parts and female body :
The other artist is Andrew Loomis. I'm following couple of his books Figure drawing and Drawing the Head and Hands for tips how to 'build' convincing poses, shapes . I'm already using his advice and I found it is much easier to visualize human body.
Animal references include mainly chickens , but also Dragonflies, cats as these animnals were all linked to Baltic pixie (Laume) in one way or the other. For chickens I've explored a variety of Belgium chicken breeds.
I'll give a day or to for studying references/redrawing them , as an approach for character design suggested by Iain Mccaig.
