This time it was not possible to find a model with the right lighting. Therefore, I used the proposed OCA links to YouTube for sketches. It was an interesting experience, since I never draw a model from a photograph or from a monitor.
I had to get used for a long time and a few sketches did not work out. I used to do a 10 minute task for a sketch. I worked on the size of A4 paper. But working with tone turned out to be a difficult task for me, since at first I always wanted to build a form and only after that put a shadow.
I guess I was too focused on the form and only then worked with the shadow ... I could not get the correct form if I only work with the shadow.
In my opinion, the most successful sketch is a sitting girl with a leg stretched out. One could still soften the touch of the shadow on the stomach for more poetic. Here it turned out to convey the slope of the head, pensive look and the slope of the body.
A sitting figure is easier to convey with a center of gravity than a standing figure. Several stance of figures would seem to be straight, but with a detailed analysis mistakes are visible. For example, a girl with a stick, part of the weight should be on a stick, but it turned out that one leg is a little bit short and therefore the figure was turned in motion.
