What, you wanna "learn" something?

  2. What I like about the pose is that it is an exaggeration of the reference picture. You have applied the animator's secret weapon being the animation principle of exaggeration. There are is a strong cross shape through the pose with crossing 'S' shape lines of action. I like the head being tilted as an aopposite action of the shoulders.

    The pose could be improved with at least one foot solidly placed on the ground to give a stronger sense of balance. The right arm position could be experimented with to improve the silhouette. Currently the right hand id a bit lost in the body shape. Pushing the twist and curve in the body to create a dominant line of action (possibly through the left leg and up throgh the head) may help clear up the balance and energy in the pose.

    Thanks for providing the hook as well.
