Wanted to capture with tone the "essential shapes" of the human body. Obviously, this is key to all drawings of the human form.
As this was about "essential" shapes, rather then any detail, it went better then I expected it to. The only real flaw in the final sketch is that the leg on the left should be falling away from the viewer.
Two key factors to remember: - Block in basic shapes before tightening up the details. Never go by what you think is there, but only by what you see.
