maybe start with one long action line from the head through the supporting leg, then tilt the ribcage and pelvis in opposite ways before adding the limbs. that should help the lean read as a run.
my anime running drawing needs way more movement
Artist's notes:
I’m trying to sketch a running anime character but the pose doesnt really show movement. It just looks like they’re leaning forward. I think my gesture drawing and anatomy need work. Using pencil here, what should i focus on?
