For the child, it's not bad, just be careful with the shoulder width. Here it's way too wide, similar to an adult's build so not very accurate at that point ^^
For the man and woman, it's pretty good, in terms of proportions we're doing well even though there are small inaccuracies here and there, overall it's well proportioned :)
Here is my exercise. I tried to capture the proportions as best as I could.
As you can see, I didnât focus much on the details...
I look forward to your comments, thank you in advance :)
Hello! Here is my work, I used the same head ratio for all three, I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to be done. I think I might have a problem with the arms but I'm not sure. Also, aesthetically speaking (even though it's not the topic lol), I find it very complicated to do for the whole body ^^ I'm waiting for your opinions and advice.
Yes, you can use roughly the same head-to-body ratio for adults as you do with children, although it depends on the child's age, I would say haha ^^
Your man is not bad, maybe his legs are a bit too long, but otherwise he works quite well. He also has a defined waist (which is more of a feminine trait, but why not?).
For the woman, there are more issues: she has very short legs (her torso is too long, so are her thighs), which makes her arms too long as well. She has very broad shoulders (you can fit 2 head widths, or even 2 and a half heads across a woman's shoulders, whereas for a man it's more like 3 heads). Here you've used a male width ratio for her shoulders. Her hips are also narrower than her male counterpart. Also, her breasts are a bit too high (the nipples are about the same height, but the rounding of the breast is a bit lower).
For the child, the head-to-shoulder width ratio is about 2. Here too you've made it too wide for the whole body. Let's say this little one is stocky. ^^ One arm is longer than the other, the knees are a tad too low, but otherwise, itâs not bad ^^
There are still some small adjustments needed especially for the woman and the child, but it's pretty good already. Thereâs a good foundation. Just two or three little things to tweak :3
Overall we're pretty good; I don't have much to say about the baby :3
For the child, be careful with the length of the arms (the one in the middle has a very, very short arm along his body) and the thickness of his thighs.
I can only fit 7 heads on the man when measuring with a ruler. So it shifts the landmarks a bit. Or am I mistaken somewhere? Is the example man incorrect?
I would have a hard time responding about the example given, since I wasn't the one who created it. You can find different proportional ratios according to the drawing style (in comics it's typically around 7 heads indeed).
You also have articles on the topic in the blog section with an example for 8 heads tall.
I'm sending my characters, I've understood how to do it when it comes to the realization it's up to you judges, it's surely full of mistakes but I liked doing it.
Hello Regina! So I see a few little issues in your drawing, but it's great that you enjoyed doing it and it's never a big deal to make small mistakes here and there đ For the man, the shoulders are not wide enough and the hips a bit too rounded. It's usually women who have "round" and pronounced hips, with more significant curves, men are more "rectangular". Otherwise, the limbs are (I find) quite well mastered đ, but you should really look at the length of each part (and that for all your characters).
Your middle character has a waist that's a bit too defined, the woman too, they are too hourglass-shaped, if you understand what I mean, and his thighs seem a bit long compared to his calves. And for the woman, her hips are a bit too round...
That's what I've noticed, but maybe wait for a response from one of the teachers, they might see other things đđ, but keep it up, it's great that you're investing yourself!
Indeed, I agree with Nora's opinion. You clearly have already integrated a lot of things, but you still have some issues with proportions.
You tend to place your shoulders a bit too low, which results in your arms becoming too short and your torso as well. The head is sometimes out of proportion (the woman has a head that is much too wide when compared to the man, for example). You also sometimes have misalignments in the position of the pubis (also placed a bit too high, so your torso is even shorter and your legs seem even longer, especially the thighs.

Well done :D
Je réponds ici du coup ^^
Pour l'enfant, c'est pas mal, fais juste attention Ă la largeur des Ă©paules. Ici c'est beaucoup trop large, similaire Ă la carrure d'un adulte donc pas trĂšs juste Ă ce niveau-lĂ ^^
Pour l'homme et la femme, c'est pas mal du tout, en terme de proportions on est bien mĂȘme s'il y a des petites maladresses Ă droite Ă gauche, globalement c'est bien proportionnĂ© :)
Bravo :D

Voici mon exercice. J'ai essayé de reprendre au mieux les proportions.
Comme vous pouvez le voir je ne me suis pas du tout attardée sur les détails...
J'attends vos commentaires, merci d'avance :)

Indeed, you did not dwell on the details.
But to give you proper feedback, I would need the feet, hands, and the positions of the joints (elbows and knees).
Also, be careful with the connection between the arms (especially the armpits) and the torso. Pay attention to the neck as well.
I'll let you try to push it a bit further, but the overall proportions seem fairly good to me.
Effectivement, tu ne t'es pas attardée sur les détails.
Mais pour te faire un retour correct, il me faudrait les pieds et les mains et la position des articulations (coudes et genoux).
Fais attention aussi Ă la jonction entre les bras (les aisselles notamment) et le buste. Attention aussi au cou.
Je te laisse essayer de pousser un petit peu plus, mais les proportions générales m'ont l'air relativement bonnes.

Well, no, we still have the same issues. Try using geometric shapes to build, especially the legs and arms.
Feel free to also check out the blog, there were articles on character construction that might help you approach the problem from a different angle.
The proportions are quite good, but it doesn't feel like there is a skeleton inside.
Don't hesitate to use photos as a starting point if needed, as it can help you focus only on the structure ^^
Eh bien, non on a toujours les mĂȘmes soucis. Essaye d'utiliser des formes gĂ©omĂ©triques pour construire, notamment les jambes et les bras.
N'hĂ©site pas Ă aller faire un tour sur le blog aussi, il y avait des articles sur la construction de personnage dessus qui pourront peut-ĂȘtre t'aider aussi Ă attaquer le problĂšme selon un autre angle.
Les proportions sont pas mal, mais on n'a pas l'impression qu'il y a un squelette à l'intérieur.
N'hésite pas à t'appuyer sur des photos au besoin pour commencer aussi, ça peut t'aider à te concentrer uniquement sur la structure ^^

Oui tu peux utiliser sensiblement le mĂȘme rapport de tĂȘte entre des adultes, avec les enfants, ça dĂ©pend de l'Ăąge de l'enfant j'ai envie de dire haha ^^
Ton homme est pas mal, peut-ĂȘtre les jambes un poil trop longues, mais sinon il fontionne plutĂŽt bien. Il a la taille marquĂ©e aussi (c'est plutĂŽt une caractĂ©ristique fĂ©minine, mais why not ?).
Pour la femme, on a plus de soucis dĂ©jĂ : elle est trĂšs courtes sur pattes (son buste est trop long, ses cuisses aussi), ce qui fait que ses bras aussi sont trop longs. Elle a des Ă©paules trĂšs larges (on peut faire rentrer 2 largeurs de tĂȘte, voire 2 tĂȘtes et demie dans les Ă©paules d'une femme, alors que pour une homme on est plutĂŽt sur du 3 tĂȘtes). Ici tu es sur un rapport de largeur masculin pour ses Ă©paules. Elle a les hanches moins larges que son homologue masculin aussi. Sa poitrine est un peu trop haute aussi (les tĂ©tons sont Ă peu prĂšs Ă la mĂȘme hauteur, mais l'arrondi du sein se trouve un peu plus bas).
Pour l'enfant, le rapport de tĂȘte dans la largeur des Ă©paules est Ă peu prĂšs de 2. Ici encore tu es trop large et ce, pour tout le corps. Disons qu'il est baraquĂ© ce petit ^^ Il a un bras plus long que l'autre, les genoux un chouille trop bas, mais sinon c'est pas mal ^^
Y a encore des petites choses à retravailler notamment pour la femme et l'enfant, mais on est pas mal déjà . Y a une bonne base. Juste deux/trois petites choses à réajuster :3

Overall we're pretty good; I don't have much to say about the baby :3
For the child, be careful with the length of the arms (the one in the middle has a very, very short arm along his body) and the thickness of his thighs.
But otherwise, it's good :3
Globalement on est pas mal, sur le bébé j'ai pas grand-chose à redire :3
Pour l'enfant, attention Ă la longueur des bras (celui du milieu a un bras trĂšs trĂšs court le long de son corps) et Ă l'Ă©paisseur de ses cuisses.
Mais sinon c'est bien :3

There's another one for women, I'll let you search if you're interested ^^
The proportional ratios generally remain the same, I'll let you compare the two to see ^^
J'aurais du mal Ă rĂ©pondre par rapport Ă l'exemple donnĂ©, vu que ce n'est pas moi qui l'ai fait. On peut trouver diffĂ©rents rapports de proportions selon le style de dessin (en BD on est plutĂŽt sur du 7 tĂȘte en effet).
Tu as aussi des articles sur le sujet dans la partie blog avec un exemple pour 8 tĂȘtes de haut.
Ici >> https://www.dessindigo.com/blog/dessin-corps-homme
Tu en as un autre pour les femmes, je te laisse chercher si ça t'intéresse ^^
Les rapports de proportions restent globalement les mĂȘmes, je te laisse comparer les deux pour voir ^^

Alors je vois quelques petits soucis dans ton dessin, mais c'est trĂšs bien que tu aies pris du plaisir Ă le faire et c'est jamais grave de faire de petites erreurs par-ci par-lĂ đ Pour l'homme les Ă©paules ne sont pas assez larges et les hanches un peu trop arrondi. C'est plutĂŽt les femmes qui ont des hanches "rondes" et marquĂ©es, avec des courbes plus importantes, les hommes sont plus "rectangulaires". Sinon les membres sont (je trouve) assez bien maĂźtrisĂ©s đ, mais tu devrais bien regarder la longueur de chaque parties (et cela pour tous tes personnages).
Ton personnage du milieu a une taille un peu trop marquée, la femme aussi, ils sont trop en forme de sablier, si tu comprends ce que je veux dire, et ses cuisses me paraissent un peu longues comparés à ses mollets. Et pour la femme, ses hanches sont un peu trop rondes...
VoilĂ ce que je relĂšve, mais attends peut-ĂȘtre la rĂ©ponse d'un des profs, ils verront peut-ĂȘtre d'autres trucs đđ, mais continue comme ça, c'est super que tu t'investisses !

I made a quick little correction for you below ^^
En effet, je rejoins l'avis de Nora. On sent que tu as déjà intégré pas mal de choses, mais il te reste des petits soucis de proportions.
Tu as tendance Ă placer tes Ă©paules un peu trop bas, ce qui fait que tes bras deviennent trop courts et ton torse aussi. La tĂȘte est parfois disproportionnĂ©e (la femme a une tĂȘte bien trop large quand on la compare Ă l'homme par exemple). Tu as aussi parfois des dĂ©calages au niveau de la position du pubis (placĂ© lui aussi un peu trop haut, donc ton tronc est encore plus court et tes jambes semblent encore plus longues, notamment les cuisses.
Je t'ai fait une petite correction ultra rapide ci-dessous ^^
