Hmm, itâs not quite right yet. Overall, it lacks structure. Donât hesitate to draw using simple shapes, like you would for objects.
Iâm going to send you a corrected version.
Your first two drawings seem to be viewed from the front, so theyâre not quite on topic, but they are well done. The proportions are good and everything. In the first one, I think I see what you were trying to do; you wanted to experiment with the legs viewed from above and the torso viewed slightly from below, right? In reality, youâre not far off, but itâs all in the details, especially around the shoulder line. Iâve made some small diagrams to give you a little tip ^^ The second one seems to be viewed from a slightly higher angle. Again, itâs all about small details with this kind of slight perspective. Also, pay attention to the perspective on the face; it might seem trivial, but it can change a lot ^^
Your third drawing is not bad, but donât hesitate to round it out more around the pelvis, and the head seems a bit small to me (itâs higher than the shoulders, so it should appear even more zoomed in).
And on the right, I see that you tried to do a top view again, but it completely lacks structure. I have no idea what the body looks like underneath the clothes. So, I improvised a bit; I assumed it was a top view of a bent-over figure, so with a âbottom viewâ of the torso, if you will.
It needs some more work, but this is a very, very difficult stage, so itâs normal to get stuck or have trouble. But youâre not far off :D
This is a good start, but your characters lack depth; they almost look like cardboard cutouts.
To improve this, try breaking down the shapes further. For example, start by drawing the rib cage in three dimensions (giving it a good thickness), then add the arms on top of that thickness... and so on, adding the pelvis, legs, and head.
Iâm attaching a small correction that will highlight the differences.
Keep going; this isnât an easy exercise at all!
Itâs not bad; it follows the lines of perspective quite well!
The problem you have is that youâre thinking too much in terms of flat shapes (donât worry, itâs a common issue with this type of exercise). Itâs as if your figure is made of paper and has no thickness. This is particularly noticeable in the way the arms connect to the torso. When you draw your figure, think about the thickness of its ribcage as much as its length and width! Iâve attached a correction that I hope will help you.
Hello Yvanna !
C'est pas mal, ça suit relativement bien les angles des lignes de fuite !
Hello!
Here are my drawings, created after the character design lessons.
Iâm not sure where else to post them⊠(because I received a notification saying thereâs no feedback option for this video).
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Hello !
Voici mes dessins suite aux cours sur les personnages.
The woman sitting down isn't bad, maybe on the one on the left, her navel is a little too low, or perhaps the volume of her stomach/thighs isn't suggested well enough. In any case, it seems more accurate on the right. It also lacks a slight suggestion of the clavicles, I think!
For the muscular guy, there seems to be a small alignment issue with the rib cage and the pelvis. And he has very small hands for his build!
For the woman viewed from below, hmm... Apart from the breasts, the drawing on the right is very good. Without the reference, it's hard to say, but the breasts seem too pronounced from below for how small they appear, anyway, I'm not entirely sure, but there's definitely something off!
But what's interesting here is that when we see your decomposition work alongside it... Well, we see that in terms of understanding the volumes, it's not quite right, and that even though the drawing on the right is good, it means you may have relied a little too much on the reference (copying the lines rather than understanding). I'm attaching a correction showing how I would have decomposed the shapes instead. It's a small difference, but you can tell that you're not completely comfortable.
Okay, I'm nitpicking, but overall it's good work ^^
Pour le mec costaud, il semble y avoir un petit souci d'alignement de la cage thoracique avec le bassin. Et il a des toutes petites mains pour sa carrure !
Well, you certainly didnât start with an easy pose, did you? ^^'
If I understand correctly, you wanted to draw your character from a slightly overhead perspective (as if she were sitting on the ground).
However, itâs not quite right. If we ignore the legs for now, it looks like the entire upper body is facing forward. We should see the top of the shoulders (this will be particularly noticeable at the point where the neck connects), and the skull will probably overlap it, so we wonât see much of the neck. There will inevitably be some foreshortening in the arms. At the pelvis, the angle changes to follow the curve of the ground. You didnât do too badly on this part of the drawing. Iâm attaching a quick sketch for you!
Salut Eyft !
Eh bien dis donc tu ne commences pas par une pose facile ^^'
In reality, the purpose of the drawing was to depict the character as seen from the front, with the horizon line positioned at chest level. Itâs as if she is sitting on the ground, having a lively conversation with a potential boyfriend, slightly turning her head to the side. ^^â
Therefore, I think the face is what doesnât quite work with this particular angle. Setting aside the face, which will be reworked, what do you think of the rest of the drawing?
Thank you in advance for your help. =)
Thibault
In this case, the legs are positioned much too high. Also, you shouldnât be able to see the top of the head. But clearly, whatâs positioned incorrectly, according to what youâre describing, is primarily the legs, which should be shown with a foreshortening of the thighs. Itâs true that the legs are below the horizon line, but unless the camera is right up against the character, the perspective wonât be as pronounced. So, Iâve made another sketch for you.
Itâs not easy, is it?
Well, you had a little trouble, so here are some tips and a corrected drawing:
For A: Even though itâs technically not impossible for the foot to completely hide the leg, itâs not recommended to depict your character this way because it makes the pose very difficult to read (I was a little confused for a few seconds before realizing it was a kick). Also, your pose isnât quite right because the character is off balance and leaning backward.
For B: This kind of view is really difficult! Important point: remember that the head has volume and will obscure part of the shoulder. Thatâs whatâs mainly missing from your character. Otherwise, make sure to think about the orientation of the body parts. Remember that weâre seeing the pelvis from above (here, the line of the t-shirt is almost horizontal, when it should be curved).
For C: Not too bad, but you need to remember that the head is viewed from below, so we will see the jaw. Itâs best to avoid drawing the entire outline of the underside of the head in this kind of angle. As for the feet, yes, they get larger with perspective, but you still need to remember that if we canât see the underside, we canât have a significant foreshortening due to the angle. (Itâs not like weâre seeing the character walking on a glass plate from below, where we can have very exaggerated angles and therefore accentuate the differences in size).
Following my first attempt (just above), which was a failure đ!! Iâm posting a second attempt after practicing for a week.
Thank you for your previous comments, as they were very helpful!
Itâs normal to struggle with this kind of exercise; itâs not easy at all, and even with my many years of drawing experience, I donât feel completely confident when faced with this type of subject matter!
Your poses are nice and work quite well. Iâm going to focus mainly on the low-angle view. Itâs better than before, but there are still a few issues. In particular, with such an angle, the neck should be barely visible, I think. As it is, it gives the impression that itâs very long. Also, the head seems to be limited to just the face; we donât see the curvature of the skull. I think you could also have made your hands a bit larger and created a greater disproportion between the arm and forearm (since the forearm is closer, it should appear longer).
This is just a very rough draft, right now I'm mainly trying to understand the concept.
Looking back, I think I should have emphasized the perspective more by increasing the size of the lower part of the legs in relation to the thighs and torso, especially for the child. There are definitely other issues I need to fix!
Anyway, this tool is amazing, I feel like a magical world is opening up to me, now I just need to master it ;)
Petit essai trĂšs trĂšs trĂšs brouillon, pour l'instant j'essaie avant tout de comprendre le principe.
Avec le recul je pense que j'aurais dû plus marquer la perspective en augmentant la taille de la partie basse des jambes par rapport aux cuisses et au torse, surtout chez l'enfant. Il y a sûrement d'autres soucis que je dois corriger !
These sketches are really great! You can tell youâre already used to drawing. :)
Apart from what youâve already noted about the proportions of the childâs limbs, I donât really have much to say at this stage... Itâs going to get a lot more challenging when you start wanting to go into more detail, so Iâm looking forward to seeing what you do!
You did a good job! But you tried some very difficult angles, so itâs not quite right yet ^^'
First of all, if you had the impression that the character was leaning to one side, thatâs normal, because you got confused with the vanishing points! Indeed, the first character facing us is correctly positioned in perspective, but the next two are turned 90°, so the angle of their shoulders, hips, etc., points towards a different vanishing point! (If you donât understand, try to imagine that they are in boxes, it will be easier to understand ^^), so of course, by aligning the shoulders and feet with the wrong vanishing points, you ended up with leaning characters whose feet are pointing in all directions, haha!
For your top-down views: you fell into a very common trap when you start working with this type of view (I used to make the same mistakes), which makes your character have no thickness/volume. The rib cage is slightly oval, slightly rounded at the front, and the shoulders have thickness. So when you draw the torso as you did, it looks like itâs not a human, but a plank of wood with a human drawn on it đ
Your bottom-up view is actually pretty good :)
I hope my quick sketches will help you with your next attempts!

Mmmh c'est pas tout à fait ça encore. Globalement, ça manque de structure, n'hésite pas à dessiner par formes simples, comme pour les objets.
Je vais te joindre une correction.
Tes deux premiers dessins ont l'air d'ĂȘtre vus de maniĂšre frontale donc hors sujets, mais ils sont bien faits. Les proportions sont bonnes et tout. Sur le premier, je crois que je vois ce que tu as essayĂ© de faire, tu voulais tester avec les jambes vues de dessus et le buste lĂ©gĂšrement d'en-dessous non ? En vrai tu n'es pas loin, mais ça se joue pas mal au niveau de la ligne des Ă©paules, je t'ai fait des petits schĂ©mas pour te donner la petite astuce ^^ Le second semble plutĂŽt vu en lĂ©gĂšre plongĂ©e. Encore une fois, ça se joue Ă pas grand-chose sur de la perspective lĂ©gĂšre comme ça. Attention aussi Ă la perspective sur le visage, c'est bĂȘte mais ça peut changer beaucoup de choses ^^
Ton troisiĂšme est pas mal, mais n'hĂ©site pas Ă arrondir davantage au niveau du bassin et la tĂȘte me semble un peu petite (elle est plus haute que les Ă©paules, et devrait donc paraitre encore plus zoomĂ©e).
Et Ă droite, je vois que tu as cherchĂ© Ă faire une vue de dessus Ă nouveau, mais ça manque totalement de structure, je ne sais pas du tout comment est fichu le corps en dessous des vĂȘtements. Du coup j'ai un peu improvisĂ©, j'ai supposĂ© que c'Ă©tait vu de dessus d'un personnage courbĂ©, donc avec une "vue de dessous" du buste si on peut dire.
A retravailler, mais c'est un passage trÚs trÚs compliqué, c'est normal de bloquer dessus ou d'avoir du mal. Mais t'es pas loin :D

C'est un bon dĂ©but, mais tes personnages manquent de volume, ils ont presque l'air d'ĂȘtre des panneaux en carton.
Pour amĂ©liorer ce cĂŽtĂ© lĂ , essaye peut-ĂȘtre de plus dĂ©composer les formes. Par exemple, commence par dessiner la cage thoracique en volume (donc de bien lui donner une Ă©paisseur), puis rajoute les bras sur cette Ă©paisseur... et ainsi de suite e rajoutant le bassin, les jambes et la tĂȘte.
Je te joins une petite correction qui mettra en avant les différences.
Courage, ce n'est pas un exercice facile du tout !

C'est pas mal, ça suit relativement bien les angles des lignes de fuite !
Le souci que tu as c'est que tu penses trop "Ă plat" (je te rassure c'est un souci courant sur ce genre d'exercice), lĂ c'est comme si ton bonhomme Ă©tait en papier et qu'il n'avait pas d'Ă©paisseur. ca se voit notamment au niveau du rattachement des bras sur le torse. Quand tu dessines ton bonhomme, pense Ă l'Ă©paisseur de sa cage thoracique tout autant que sa longueur et sa largeur ! Je te joins une correction qui t'aideras, je l'espĂšre !

Okay, I'm nitpicking, but overall it's good work ^^
La femme assise est pas mal, peut-ĂȘtre que sur cette de gauche le nombril est un peu bas, ou alors c'est que le volume du ventre/des cuisses n'est pas assez bien suggĂ©rĂ©. En tout cas ça me parait plus juste Ă droite. Ca manque aussi d'une petite suggestion des clavicules je pense !
Pour le mec costaud, il semble y avoir un petit souci d'alignement de la cage thoracique avec le bassin. Et il a des toutes petites mains pour sa carrure !
Pour la nana vue d'en dessous, mh... A part les seins, le dessin de droite est trÚs bien. Sans la référence c'est dur de dire, mais les seins ont l'air trop marqués en dessous pour ce qu'ils ont l'air petit, enfin je sais pas trop mais en tout cas il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas !
Mais ce qui est intĂ©ressant ici c'est que quand on voit ton travail de dĂ©composition Ă cĂŽtĂ©... Bah on voit que niveau comprĂ©hension des volumes c'est pas tout Ă fait ça et que comme malgrĂ© ça le dessin de droite est bien, ça veut dire que tu t'es peut-ĂȘtre un peu trop reposĂ©e sur la rĂ©fĂ©rence (recopiage des lignes plus que comprĂ©hension). Je te joins une correction sur comment j'aurais dĂ©composĂ© les formes Ă ta place. Ca se joue Ă pas grand chose hein mais on sent que tu n'est pas hyper Ă l'aise.
Bon je pinaille mais c'est globalement du bon boulot ^^

Eh bien dis donc tu ne commences pas par une pose facile ^^'
Si je comprends bien, tu as voulu dessiner ton personnage vue légÚrement du dessus (comme si elle était assise au sol)
Du coup c'est pas tout à fait ça. Actuellement si on oublie les jambes, on dirait que tout le haut du corps est de face. On doit voir le dessus des épaules (ça va notamment se voir au niveau du rattachement du cou), le crùne va probablement empiéter dessus et on va peu voir le cou. Il y aura forcément un raccourci sur les bras. Au niveau du bassin on change d'angle pour épouser le sol. Tu ne t'en es pas si mal tiré pour cette partie là sur ton dessin. Je te joins un pÎti croquis !

En réalité le but du dessin était de représenter le personnage comme étant vu de face, la ligne d'horizon se situant au niveau de la poitrine.
Comme si elle Ă©tait assise au sol en grande conversation avec un Ă©ventuel petit ami en tournant lĂ©gĂšrement la tĂȘte sur le cotĂ© ^^'
Du coup je pense que c'est le visage qui fait défaut à un tel angle de vue...
En faisant abstraction du visage qui sera amenĂ© Ă ĂȘtre retravaillĂ©, que penser du reste du dessin ?
Merci d'avance de votre aide =)

Dans ce cas les jambes sont vues largement trop d'au dessus ! D'autre part on ne devrait pas voir le dessus de la tĂȘte. Mais clairement ce qui est mal placĂ© selon ce que tu me dĂ©cris, ce sont les jambes avant tout, qui devrait vues avec un raccourci des cuisses. C'est vrai que les jambes sont en dessous de la ligne d'horizon, mais Ă moins que la camĂ©ra soit collĂ©e contre le personnage, la perspective ne sera pas aussi accentuĂ©e. Je t'ai fait un autre croquis du coup ^^

Itâs not easy, is it?
Well, you had a little trouble, so here are some tips and a corrected drawing:
For A: Even though itâs technically not impossible for the foot to completely hide the leg, itâs not recommended to depict your character this way because it makes the pose very difficult to read (I was a little confused for a few seconds before realizing it was a kick). Also, your pose isnât quite right because the character is off balance and leaning backward.
For B: This kind of view is really difficult! Important point: remember that the head has volume and will obscure part of the shoulder. Thatâs whatâs mainly missing from your character. Otherwise, make sure to think about the orientation of the body parts. Remember that weâre seeing the pelvis from above (here, the line of the t-shirt is almost horizontal, when it should be curved).
For C: Not too bad, but you need to remember that the head is viewed from below, so we will see the jaw. Itâs best to avoid drawing the entire outline of the underside of the head in this kind of angle. As for the feet, yes, they get larger with perspective, but you still need to remember that if we canât see the underside, we canât have a significant foreshortening due to the angle. (Itâs not like weâre seeing the character walking on a glass plate from below, where we can have very exaggerated angles and therefore accentuate the differences in size).
Pas facile hein ?
Bon, tu as eu un peu de mal, alors voilà quelques conseils et une correction dessinée :
Pour la A : MĂȘme si ce n'est techniquement pas impossible que le pied cache complĂštement la jambe, c'est dĂ©conseillĂ© de reprĂ©senter ton personnage ainsi car ça rend la pose trĂšs peu lisible (j'ai un peu buguĂ© quelques secondes dessus avant de comprendre que c'Ă©tait un coup de pied), de plus ta pose n'est pas bonne dans le sens oĂč le personnage est en dĂ©sĂ©quilibre vers l'arriĂšre.
Pour la B : C'est vraiment difficile ce genre de vue ! Point important : prendre en compte que la tĂȘte a un volume et va cacher une partie de l'Ă©paule. C'est surtout ça qui manque Ă ton personnage. Sinon , bien penser Ă l'orientation des Ă©lĂ©ments du corps. Penser qu'on voit le bassin du dessus (lĂ le trait du t-shirt est presque horizontal, alors qu'il devrait s'arrondir)
Pour la C : Pas trop mal mais il faut prendre en compte que la tĂȘte est vue du dessous et donc qu'on va voir de la mĂąchoire. Il vaut mieux Ă©viter de dessiner entiĂšrement le cernĂ© du dessous de la tĂȘte dans ce genre d'angle. Quant aux pieds, certes ils s'agrandissent avec la perspective mais il faut quand mĂȘme penser que si tu n'en voit pas le dessous, on ne peut pas avoir un rĂ©el Ă©norme raccourci dĂ» a l'angle. (Pas comme si on voyait le personnage du dessous marcher sur une plaque en verre, oĂč lĂ on peut avoir des angles trĂšs exagĂ©rĂ©s et donc accentuer les diffĂ©rences de taille)

C'est normal de galĂ©rer avec ce genre d'exercice, c'est loin d'ĂȘtre facile et moi mĂȘme avec mes longues annĂ©es de pratique du dessin je ne suis pas si sereine que ça face Ă ce genre de choses Ă dessiner !
Tes poses sont sympa et fonctionnent plutĂŽt bien, je vais surtout m'attarder sur la vue en contre plongĂ©e. C'est mieux qu'avant mais il y a toujours quelque soucis. Notamment, avec un angle pareil le cou devrait ĂȘtre pas ou peu visible je pense. Là ça donne l'impression qu'il est trĂšs long du coup ^^ Aussi, la tĂȘte a l'air de se limiter au visage, on ne voit pas l'arrondi de la boĂźte cranienne. Je pense que tu aurais aussi pu faire tes mains un peu plus grosse et faire un plus gros dĂ©sĂ©quilibre de proportion bras/avant bras (l'avant-bras Ă©tant plus prĂšs il devrait avoir l'air plus long)
J'espÚre que ça pourra t'aider !

Avec le recul je pense que j'aurais dû plus marquer la perspective en augmentant la taille de la partie basse des jambes par rapport aux cuisses et au torse, surtout chez l'enfant. Il y a sûrement d'autres soucis que je dois corriger !
En tout cas c'est génial cet outil, j'ai l'impression qu'un monde magique s'ouvre à moi, reste à le maitriser ;)
Merci beaucoup !

These sketches are really great! You can tell youâre already used to drawing. :)
Apart from what youâve already noted about the proportions of the childâs limbs, I donât really have much to say at this stage... Itâs going to get a lot more challenging when you start wanting to go into more detail, so Iâm looking forward to seeing what you do!
TrÚs sympa ces croquis ! On voit que tu as déjà l'habitude de dessiner :)
A part ce que tu as déjà relevé avec les proportions des membres de l'enfant, je ne vois pas grand chose à te dire en l'état... Ca va pas mal se corser quand tu vas vouloir aller un peu plus dans le détail, alors j'ai hùte de voir ce que tu vas faire !

Itâs not easy to make them stand upright; I have the impression that following the vanishing point with their shoulders makes them lean to one side.
Anyway, thank you in advance for your feedback.
Have a good end of the week đ
Pas évident de les faire tenir droit, j'ai l'impression qu'en suivant le point de fuite avec les épaules ça les fait pencher d'un cÎté.
Enfin merci d'avance pour le retour.
Bonne fin de semaine đ

You did a good job! But you tried some very difficult angles, so itâs not quite right yet ^^'
First of all, if you had the impression that the character was leaning to one side, thatâs normal, because you got confused with the vanishing points! Indeed, the first character facing us is correctly positioned in perspective, but the next two are turned 90°, so the angle of their shoulders, hips, etc., points towards a different vanishing point! (If you donât understand, try to imagine that they are in boxes, it will be easier to understand ^^), so of course, by aligning the shoulders and feet with the wrong vanishing points, you ended up with leaning characters whose feet are pointing in all directions, haha!
For your top-down views: you fell into a very common trap when you start working with this type of view (I used to make the same mistakes), which makes your character have no thickness/volume. The rib cage is slightly oval, slightly rounded at the front, and the shoulders have thickness. So when you draw the torso as you did, it looks like itâs not a human, but a plank of wood with a human drawn on it đ
Your bottom-up view is actually pretty good :)
I hope my quick sketches will help you with your next attempts!
Tu as bien bossé ! Mais c'est des angles de vue trÚs difficiles à faire que tu as essayé alors ce n'est pas encore ça ^^'
Tout d'abord, si tu as eu cette impression de personnage qui penche sur le cÎté, c'est normal, c'est parce que tu t'es embrouillée dans les points de fuite ! En effet, le premier personnage qui nous fait face est correctement dans la perspective, mais les deux suivants sont tournées à 90° donc l'angle de leurs épaules, de leurs hanches etc vont vers un autre point de fuite ! (Si ça ne te parle pas, essaie d'imaginer qu'ils sont dans des boßtes, ce sera plus parlant ^^), donc forcément en faisant coïncider les épaules et les pieds avec les mauvaises fuyantes tu te retrouvais avec des personnages penchés et qui jouent à "chou-fleur" avec leurs pieds haha !
Pour tes vues du dessus : tu es tombĂ©e dans un travers trĂšs commun quand on dĂ©bute avec ce genre de vue (je faisais complĂštement ce genre d'erreurs moi aussi), qui fait que ton personnage n'a aucune Ă©paisseur/volume. La cage thoracique est un peu ovale, lĂ©gĂšrement bombĂ©e sur l'avant, et les Ă©paules ont une Ă©paisseur. Donc quand tu dessines le torse comme tu l'as fait, on dirait que ce n'est pas un humain mais une planche de bois avec un humain dessinĂ© dessus đ
Ta vue de dessous est franchement pas mal :)
J'espĂšre que mes croquis rapides pourront t'aider pour tes prochains essais !

Yes, the âboxesâ technique resonates with me; itâs true that when I draw, I donât always keep the idea of volume in mind.
Iâm going to try to apply this to my next drawings.
Thanks for the feedback.
See you soon :)
En effet le coup des boĂźtes me parle bien, c'est vrai que quand je dessine je n'ai pas toujours en tĂȘte l'idĂ©e de volume.
Je vais essayer d'appliquer ça pour mes prochains dessins ^^
Merci pour le retour
Ă bientĂŽt :)
