Description HUGE FILE SIZE

My apologies for the crappy handwriting, I kinda made this thing in 10 minutes, so yeah.

It's basically how I draw the proportions of the body, it's not a concrete guide on exactly how you MUST draw it. You can make the legs longer fro taller characters, or the heads bigger for chibi characters, it's up to you. But once you draw out the skeleton thing that I made, then you can add in the person's body shape (skinny, fat, etc.) and details.

Next tutorial will be on: FACES

EDIT: I had no clue this deviation would be so useful to you guys...Thanks for teh faves!!! And I will work on the next tutorial eventually, if I stop being so lazy XB

What is this form of art called? These sort of "construction" arts, as I call them, are really helping out but I can't find any online. I find some in a binder in my room and it helped a bunch. So I sorta need more of these notes.

Very good tutorial, that is exactly how you draw anime bodies correctly too, i've seen various books on how to draw anime that show the exact same sketch, in they're own style of course, very good, and very nice of you to post this here ^^ keep up the good work
