You have your own skill set to sketch, I've tried it never works I stick to skeletons. You still need to share your insight into creating craft booklet of goodies.

Ah a lot of more professional artists suggest to draw from life (ex: a model) or stock photography to better understand the human body - something that I still have yet to do

I'm not sure what insight I can give on art other than practice practice practice

I have used my wife to get some postures down, but still rely on making a skeleton. otherwise it is very lop sided or disproportioned.

better to just keep at what works and mesh from there.

 

Best form of insight is practice, but what do you do to keep that picture in picture quality and keep your characters looking the same.

Hmm, I think the key is repeating the same drawing over and over again. When someone draws a good face it's usually because they've drawn it at that angle hundreds of times through practice. Hope that makes sense

Yeah, I got that. makes total sense but the problem I come across is trying new things it always seems to change my style in unwanted ways but I continue to find new ways to change the way I draw cause 2d heads isn't very good, it reminds me of people who draw one thing then recolor it over and over.

Hmm, I guess one of the things you can do is copy another person's artwork/style until you get a feel of how things come together - it's much easier to learn by example vs. trying to learn things on your own (from scratch). Hope that makes sense

Yeah, I do that now, but trying for a more realistic approach but seems that for the most part Anthro type characters don't do to well with that so Trying to get a feel for toon real like appearance.

 

Yes it makes sense, can I have a cookie for knowledge. :3

I'm pretty bad when it comes to sketching.  It looks like you've got a pretty good handle on it, though!
