Figure Drawing
Who ever thought that drawing stick figures is actually helpful, and a key basic concept to drawing human figures. Your ability to draw stick figures will help you in drawing bodies! There is a very important thing called figure drawing: Figure drawing is basically drawing lines and circles to get a basic "skeleton" of the body. It helps greatly with poses and movement too. For beginners, I highly suggest using figure drawing for drawing bodies. Trust me, it will make body proportions especially much easier to learn.
