Dem Bones/ My 100th post

I've been doing an exercise from The Natural Way to Draw that I think is really cool. You take a figure drawing that you have already done and lay tracing paper over it. Then using an anatomy book draw the skeleton inside the figure. Its also a good way to check your proportions of the figure as it points out mistakes you may not have otherwise seen. Next step is to attach the muscles.

Thanks Ryan! Those details get me, especially the ribs and vertebrae, there's a lot of them.
