Let’s now move on to drawing the human figure from the side view.
1-Establish your lines again like in the front view for proper measurements.
2-We will modify the skeleton a little bit. It will be better to follow the rhythm of the spinal cord because it’s easier to place the ribcage and the hip bone.
3-Just follow the rhythm of the spinal cord; the ribcage will appear like it is tilting backwards.
Also note that the hip bone is tilting forward in a neutral position. Make sure you establish the tilted ribcage and the tilted hip bone.
4-For the legs, they also have an Srhythm to them.
5-Place the spheres for the joints.
6-Now draw the cylinders for the limbs. Draw the other leg but just a little because of this angle.
7-To draw the chest in the side view, just draw a teardrop shape but make it a bit flat on the top.
8-In the side view, the underwear is different. It looks somewhat like a crescent moon as it wraps around the leg.
Connect the ribcage to the hip bone. Just below the breast is the ribcage so draw a little bump there. And there’s another bump on the lower belly because there are many layers of muscles here.
9-Now, it’s time for outlining your sketch.
10-Clean up the lines and you’re done!
