Ho would you draw shoulders from the side? I've always struggled with that.
Iāve been thinking about it too, and honestly itās quite troublesome to think about. I never really thought about howĀ I draw it, I just improvise until it looks believable. However, I did notice there is a trick for itā¦
Okay so hereās the body, right? Ignore the obvious anatomy errors, Iām lazy and tired at the moment, but the idea should be clear. Think of the shoulder as ball-jointed doll. Draw the circle in the motion of the body as the base andā¦
Bam! Put a teardrop around it! I love teardrops as guidelines so much. I donāt think I have to explain it, do I? I think it speaks for itself; rotate the teardrop and the shoulder should follow it. Use it as a guideline and eventually you wonāt have to use it anymore, itāll be there mentally. I do, however, reccomend you pose in front of the mirror to get more correct results on how the lines will bend with the muscles. Just stand in front of the mirror and move your shoulders around, notice what muscles follows and etc.Ā
If you need any more help with this, let me know.
