any sick tips on making pones look as soft as yours

I was contemplating making a tutorial about this one day, but it would take a small bit of time to explain the process behind how I enforce the dynamics of my pictures.

I’d start off by paying attention to line art. That’s where all of your dynamics are enforced. Whether you’re using them to enforce the entire foundation of the picture, or you’re using them as a basis for your painting style, I think getting your line art to look as heavy as possible is the key to having a heavy and dynamic style. 

There are very small details that you can apply to line art that would make or break the feel of a particular pose. This can even be applied to a micro scale when it comes to limb placement. 

Enforcing the effects of gravity on a character is so important to getting them to look right. They are after all big bags of water. You need to envision it that way.

Unless they’re made of rocks. 

In which case a whole different set of rules apply.

But I digress.
