I tried something new today for a speed drill. I used the SketchDaily reference site to limit myself to 5 minutes per figure. I haven’t done much pure gesture work, which is what this kind of thing demands. I don’t really hate any of the body proportions I’ve got in here, which is a lot of what that skill stresses. That and capturing the sense of flow or movement to the figure. Some of these flow better than others, of course. The cleaner you can get your lines, focusing on big C or S curves, the better the overall flow. As you can see, that’s not a strength of mine! This felt like a valuable drill, though, so I’m sure I’ll do it again.
