      I honestly think it's not bad, it's just not what I intended really. but, since it was born of feelings of depression and personal futility I consider a failure of execution to be a truer success than if it'd been a total success. at least, that's how I justify not throwing it away...

          well in all fairness the initial sketch linked above was preeeeetty rough compared to the actual painting, the latter of which I did a couple of days later when I wasn't feeling so down anymore. and I really had to force the sketch out; I had wanted to work on the main project I'm working on but couldn't get behind it, but felt like I had to get something out.

          i think the body lines in your sketch look fine, especially the left foot.
