I have been practicing a lot of drawing, since I´m gonna start another animation course (it says its "advanced") and I want to get ready. I don´t want to waste time finding out how to draw what I want to animate during the course, so I can have enough time to make some quality stuff.
Anyway, I choosed Nei to practice because she wears only a swimsuit, boots and sleeves, which makes her body pretty exposed. It´s easier to work out angles, movement, perspective. Of course, I didn´t copy the original design, I have given to her my own style. And although it still have a lot of flaws, I consider that I have improved quite a lot in the last weeks. Please, take a look and tell what you think:
