Phinix, How do you draw your characters' bodies?

(I wanted some tips)

Alright I’m not the best at giving tips or advice on drawing, but this is my process.

My best advice is just to practice. I know, I know. Everyone says just to practice. But it’s true.

I practice a lot. A LOT. Personally I haven’t liked my art style for a long time so I’m practicing drawing in a new style (see above). Especially making sure bodies are proportional, which I’ve always had trouble with.

Every person has their own way of drawing, I personally don’t like using the stick figure method, it looks weird to me. But a lot of people use that method and it works great for them.

Something helpful is just to go on *generic search engine* and just look up people. Pick one and take 10 seconds to draw the pose, messy as it is. Keep doing that and it will get easier and easier. And it significantly improves your posing and understanding of anatomy.

Remember true perfection doesn’t exist (except in Stardew Valley)

Practice makes Improvement. And everyone is constantly improving.

And if you’re having a hard time drawing, just draw rats. Just trust me on this one.

Hey, real question.... (and kinda long post) anyone got tips on how to make yourself care? I'm finding it harder at the moment (for the last while) but it kinda hit me today that this isn't right bc I'm finding it extend toward food now. Where, I can't get myself to care enough to *eat* until I'm light headed. But it extended into other things first (classes, cleaning, general responsibilities). Its effected cooking for a while, but I could get fast food or make a sandwich bc I *know* im supposed to eat. I *know* that bodies need it, so I need to do it. So I was like - OK, if I cant bring myself to cook... cereal, sandwiches, take out, and then I'd cook when I could. But recently? Its gotten worse and I dont know why and I'm caring about my lack of caring?(if that makes sense?) It....its starting to scare me. It was just annoying before. Frustrating. But now? Now it's kinda scaring me bc I can't get myself to care about my future, the college classes I have left, or eating more than one meal and a snack a day, and that's.... not good. But I dont know how to fix it or work around it and I had worked so *hard* to not slide and its been years and I just.... dont know what to do bc my previous tactics aren't working and this is lasting longer than last time. so... advice would be nice

Please and thank you

TLDR - advice on how to care and make eating and doing other important things easier/doable wanted
