Learning anatomy drawing is important. Period. Whatever you plan to draw and however you plan to draw it you need to have an idea of what it actually looks like, practice in realism, before you plan to move on to creative interpretation.
Here are examples of all different kinds of athletic body types to illustrate the importance of knowing what sort of “built” look you will need to go for when drawing and designing a character. Not all fit is the same fit and it is so hard to find adequate variety when looking for references. These were linked by a talented comic artist Nina Matsumoto.

Random Drabble I
WELP, can’t say I am any decent at writing, so maybe you’ll get a laugh from it!
AMAZING short LGBTQ writing from my friend, Sam. I’m so jealous of this girl’s writing skills. Even though her pieces are really short, they tell a lot and you can still get tons of great imagery from them.
The day before my Austria trip
Should have been asleep a LONG time ago but I was working on a gift for my best friend’s parents for flying me out to Austria. I really hope they like it! I’m getting a super short haircut later today and then my flight leaves tomorrow night at 10. I can’t wait!!!! :D I’m a little nervous about going on a plane by myself. My friend gave me a list of everything I need to do while I’m traveling and I’m going to have that list on me at all times until I get there. This is going to be my first time going to Europe. I have two flights: Newark Liberty International to Zurich and then Zurich to Vienna. I’m going to crash my memory card with pics as I go. I’ll be in Vienna on Monday. So excited!!! I need to finish packing later, pack hers and her parents’ gifts, make sure I have everything and then I’ll be set :)
