ANATOMY ZONE

[Chutzpar]

What I do which has helped me to learn how to draw something my way is copy the reference a couple of times, and then draw more carefully copying my own sketches. So I can incorporate the whole thing into my style.

This. This this this this this.

Not only that, but when you're copying the reference, try and use a few different approaches. Do a couple drawings where you try to be as accurate as possible, and then do some looser, more gestural drawings. When you come to draw it again based on your studies, try and strike up a balance between accuracy and energy - if you're too hung up on accuracy, your work will get really stiff, but if you're too hung up on energy, your drawings will lack form and won't be convincing.
