I think the most challenging part for many people is the human body. To draw the human body well, people try various methods like anatomy study, croquis, and copying. However, these methods take much longer than studying and practicing the principles of poses first.
Above all, it takes much longer than studying and practicing the principles of poses first. With repetitive practice alone, you can't learn the principles, which is why at some point, you start feeling stuck despite the amount of practice. This course is about the principles and theories of poses that can help break through that plateau.

Interview with
Illustrator Kinty & Okazu
Question.01
Who would you recommend this class to?
This course is recommended for those who struggle to capture the character's anatomy without pose references, can only draw familiar poses from repeated studies or croquis, take a long time to fix awkward parts whenever drawing a new pose, are unaware of various pose creation techniques beyond basic principles like center of gravity or contrapposto, and anyone who wants to study the human body and poses.
Question.02
How can a realistic pose still feel wrong in a drawing?
A good pose goes beyond just being physically possible in real life; it refers to a pose that looks more natural and appealing. While acrobatics or circus poses are possible in reality, they may look difficult or uncomfortable in drawings or photos. Similarly, it's important to adjust the pose to one that allows the viewer to comfortably understand the situation and feel the character's charm. This is crucial for enhancing the quality and appeal of the illustration.
Question.03
Is this course suitable for both Photoshop and Clip Studio users?
This course is not about learning how to use tools, but rather focuses on the principles and rules behind poses. Therefore, you can take the course using Photoshop, Clip Studio, or even pen and paper. Of course, it's also possible to attend the course without drawing along. However, for a deeper understanding and better retention, we recommend following along by drawing what you've learned and practicing as you go.
