Well, do you agree? How much of a detriment is drawing using picrel?
>>
>>7725629
the problem isn't the advice
the problem is people who learn this and never learn any other ways on how to draw bodies for the next decade
sorry you were to stupid to learn nuance

>no hips
>short legs
>small femur
>same leg length despite the angle

It's over, too dumb for a stick man
>>
No one is learning anatomy like this, anyone showing you something like this is talking about proportion or making an armature upon which real features of the figure can be applied. Retard!
>>
oh shut the fuck up with these shitty social media may mays. this is perfectly fine for getting just the basic pose on paper, from there on out you do the perspective and depth. you cant fucking imagine everything perfectly in your head, so a stick figure is fine for just getting the idea to paper, but its far from the end. the word anatomy here is a fucking gaslighting trap, as per usual form social media clickbait normalfags. dumbass bait threads
>>
>>7725629
Yeah. This method is like something you see in a how to draw book as a kid and use it to get a basic understanding of joints when you're sketching anime characters. Anyone who wants to get a serious understanding of anatomy should be able to figure out that there's more to it than drawing a stick figure with ball joints.

>>7725647
it doesn't help you actually draw the figure in this pose at all if you need reference anyways

Social media was a mistake where anyone can have a platform and write the most dumb shit and have their equally dumb shit audience validate them for it

that is NOT how you spell mannequin
>>
>>7725629
this isn't anatomy, this is proportions. You do this to learn how to draw things the correct size. Anatomy is different, anatomy is what muscles and joints you need to draw, but you can easily draw them too big or too small or in the wrong place.
As with most things, there is a bit of truth to this but also its not the whole truth.

It's a detriment if you don't understand what it actually represents.
>>
>>7726700
You just know this person doesnt really care about art and just wants attention
>>
>>7726700
Finding the jaw is the major flaw of the loomis method. also he fucked up what the half way point of the side circle line is and have conflicting information on what it is supposed to represent.

That being said, the mannequin is a stepping stone to constructing better bodies.

This. Not to mention that no piece of advice is applicable to everyone.
Using a simple stickman as a base, or to teach proportions may work for some, or even most, but not all - but for some damned reason the group it doesn't work for swear up and down that the advice therefore must be bad, and is useless to everyone, like it was for them.

the most interesting thing about old artbooks is seeing the ways art has changed since then, like the 8 head model and especially the heroic the 9 head model are way less common these days, most people settling on a realistic 7.5 heads or going into anime art that tends to be 5-7 heads depending on the artist.

>like the 8 head model and especially the heroic the 9 head model are way less common these days, most people settling on a realistic 7.5 heads
Really? I find most advocate for the 8 heads model now, whereas there was a greater avocation and variance in older books for the more realistic 7.5 in the older books because the 'standard' hadn't been quite set.
But maybe I'm just not reading enough modern art books?

But the 8 heads tall method would understandably be more popular - it's just easier to break the body up into 8 than 7 or 7.5.

i think the only real standards you need is crotch halfway down, bottom of knees halfway down from there. everything else just falls together even if you change the head size
forgive me for doing this in ms paint with my mouse real quick
