Tuesday Tutorial: Drawing basic #1 the human body

Today is my first tutorial post about drawing! I believe that Steemit (the first, amazing, incredible social network that allows you to pay and get paid by upvotes) should be made of good quality content that gives you something in therms of emotions, increase your knowledge or gives you a value!

So, if posting illustrations, sketches, works and more it's a sharing of our emotions and it's really important, post some tutorial, can give YOU something to learn and do on your own. And everything you can learn, it's a big value! Imagine that everytime you learn something from my tutorials, gives even to ME a big value!

That's why I wanna create #airdrawingjourney. That's a "place" where you can post your drawing to show me and the other users your progress lesson by lesson, exchange suggestions and receive opinions!

This lesson is a point from which everyone can start !!

Ok! Now it's time to place the tomato in the right place!

Next: add the legs and the neck

Time to create the tentacles and give him an expression!

DONE! You've just created a basic character structure!

Here's the turnaround of our basic character structure:

Now try to draw him doing some easy things, for example jump, run, smile and so on, you can even try to add some different dresses (don't forget to always start from the basic structure). Here's an example on what you can do with our easy recipe:
