Hopefully, you'll see this:<br /><br />Sorry about the blog. The comments don't seem to work in some browsers, even for me.<br /><br />As for proportion, it's one of the most important things in draftsmanship. The main reason I was making the head bigger was to make him look younger, as is generally the case with kids of all ages. It's tough with Spidey because you can't see his face, or any other clues as to his age. <br /><br />If you're having trouble with it, try drawing from life, and try drawing people of all ages. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it. Hope that helps.<br /><br />PaoloPaolo Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11088106827920011644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8959702978311327862.post-70102448735624102882012-04-03T19:49:16.667-07:002012-04-03T19:49:16.667-07:00That's a great approach.

While I was reading this I wondered how I would achieve the result and I came up with the idea to look at high school and first year college basketball players. They have excellent physiques and yet still look like kids with certain body parts being disproportionate overall. I think the result is the same, big hands and feet with a muscular build achieving a slightly goofy look.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721683514085788985noreply@blogger.com
