How to draw a full woman in full growth

Human drawing lesson. In this lesson we will look at how to draw a full-length full-length woman with a pencil in stages. First I want to note that for everyone the degree of fullness of the body is different, someone believes that one type of figure is thin, the other believes that the same type is fat. For me, the girl in the picture below is plump, but by no means fat, she is very pleasant and her figure is very beautiful. Who does not think so, please keep your opinion to yourself, that's why it is an opinion, to be different.

As usual, we first build a skeleton, but before that we need to draw a wall behind, a plane, in order to understand how it is in space, perspective. I don’t know how you are used to drawing the head, you can just use an oval with guides, you can use a circle, then draw a line in the middle of the head, mark where the chin will be, draw a line for the eyes, the shape of the face and the location of the ear. Then we try with the help of lines to convey the pose in which the girl is standing. One hand rests against the wall, the other is simply leaning against the wall, the body is tilted.

Now with simple forms we show the body of a woman.

Let's first draw the face, how it is positioned in relation to the body and what size. Fat people have cheeks, like children and toddlers, so the shape of the face is more rounded. If you do not know how to draw eyes, lips, then you should practice doing this separately. Many lessons of different variations can be found in the "How to draw people" section. The girl's forehead is quite high. Then sketch out part of the hair and neck.

In thin people, the fat layer is very small, and in full people, the fat layer is especially visible on the stomach, hips, chest, and legs and arms become thicker. Therefore, when the torso is tilted, such a fold appears. We make the previous lines slightly visible, this can be achieved with an eraser (eraser). We make a sketch of the lines of the body, later you can change them in order to convey the shape more correctly.

We draw shoulders and hands, then a bathing suit and hair. We achieve the correctness of the forms, often looking at the original, constantly correcting inaccuracies, comparing proportions. Where the elastic presses, in this part the body shrinks a little, and what is higher protrudes a little. Don't forget about it.

We erase all unnecessary lines, again check with the original, correct if something is wrong and you can apply a little shadow to add volume and the drawing of a full woman is ready.
