It's not even a surprise how many of these pieces are trying stuff they're not skilled enough to do yet. Why are you trying anatomy if you can't do basic shapes? Why are you doing full backgrounds if you don't understand values? This is gesture and force, yet I guarantee that none of these people even picked up a book on gesture drawing, have never taken life drawing gesture classes, and never practice fundamental shape composition in their spare time.
Patience, guys. C'mon. Ease off thinking you have to rush into full-blown artistic renderings, enjoy the study and progression of practice.

The way I saw the vulture in the second place winner was it was the prize they were fighting over! They're both stone age warriors with their wooden spear and sharpened stone. I wouldn't have thought that if the dropped spear hadn't been pointed towards it! I see it almost as if one was going for the vulture, and dropped his spear when the other intercepted him.

I think Luffy is a great character for studying force and flowing movement. His stretchy, rubbery nature helps break the mental attachment to stiff-skeleton thinking. And Luffy V Katakuri really maxes that out, so the winner really chose excellent subjects from the beginning, and then capitalized on that smart choice. Props to everyone who sent things in!

Mike has provided over an hours worth of textbook perfect critiques: something you did good, areas where you can improve, how you can improve, and actionable steps to take. Great video. I feel like with each passing year the concept of -Force- drawing becomes more understandable and easy to explain. Awesome.

I-ve been drawing a very long time but I-ve still got tons to learn. Watching these critiques makes me feel humble and excited too. There-s room to grow. Getting bored and feeling stuck isn-t fun. Thank you for the amazing content!

I want to ask, is the dynamic always necessary? For example in the poseidon vs an angler; if the poseidon was drawn in more dynamic pose, isn't that take away the perception of the huge difference of strength between the two?

11: 05 I actually think the artist's intent was to show them as fatigued and beleaguered by a long fight, and lacking the energy for aggressive punches and captured that well. There's more to a real fight than just flash.

Fun fact, gymnastics is awesome for animation because they allow you to understand how the body would dynamically act but it sucks so bad with static images
