Posemaniacs

comment Comment Written by Figure Drawing on December 4, 2009 – 12:11 pm
 

Found this interesting experiment in 30 Second poses at Posemaniacs.

If you can’t get to a class you might want to try out this online service to get some gesture drawing in. It won’t beat the real thing but its a great setup.

What’s this training for?
The idea of thirty seconds drawing app is tool for support gesture drawing.b You will improve in recognizing aspects of figures in a short amount of time, and be able to draw accruately with minimum lines.aking a large of number of sketches in a small amount of time may be good experience especially for begginners. This training will easily become your daily routine.

Check it out and let me know what you think.
