number 7

ok so um today I decided to draw my OC, Akihiko, who plays basketball and all that, so I figured he should be tall and with a well built physique because of the work out
and also, I decided to try and color it traditionally since I haven't done that in a long while and I came to the conclusion that I need another skin colored pencil because the texture on this one is really odd and it just makes noise (???)

my scanner completely butchered the colors, which is why I also had to spend about half an hour trying to fix this on Photoshop orz

but I think overall it's not that bad??
I still need to practice my male bodies a bit more (and ever since watching Free! I'm feeling more motivated to draw fit guys u//v//u)
I found this cool reference for male body according to fat and muscle content on my personal tumblr, which I will link later when my internet decides to moves its ass for a change


anyways, this has been a description
BY THE WAY, you should follow me on tumblr (my art blog) [link] because I post things there that I don't post here (like quickies and stuff like that)
I'll probably do a digital version of this just for the kicks and post it there too so
yeah
hahaha


hope you have a nice day!!
bye!
