Sweet Roundhouse Kick

My son Kevin throwing a pretty sweet roundhouse with a baseball in hand.

Hands are up.
Eyes on the target.
Hips opened up.
Lower foot turned to help open hips up.

Nice form on your kick Kevin.

Keep up the good work!

Taekwondo Knock Out

Decided to go to GIF images instead of JPG's.  Better color recognition for drawing or sketching (not as many colors).  I certainly don't need all the colors that a JPG has to offer.  Also, GIF images are generally smaller in file size.

Flying Side Kick

Here is an example of how to sketch using the stick figure on steroids method.



Turned out pretty good.  I am liking this one.

Stick Figures on Steroids

The basics for starting out sketching is to start with a simplified version in the form of a stick figure.  Saves time on figuring out the space on the paper and getting the poses correct before committing time to the detail parts of the sketch.

Add volumetric cylinders to the stick figures and now you have a stick figure on steroids.  Add the intricate detail to finalize your sketch. (Not shown)




This method saves time, gets the poses right and fills the space on the paper the way you want before committing to the final details.
