Yeah, I just decided to go directly off the reference picture. I realized the neck was very wrong, but I did it anyway, otherwise it would have been very hard for me to finish the picture. I often look to myself when drawing actual anatomy, and despite my fucked up shoulders, I am still able to learn a lot about how the muscles connect to the rest of the body and such.
I recognize that I should draw from life, however the idea to draw struck me, and I decided I would draw a picture for my friend, and thus drew that. It was more of a practice of the idea of drawing, than the practice of drawing.
I am not looking to become an amazing artist, I merely draw for fun. Come September 1st, I will probably drop the activity all together as I won't have any access to a tablet.
However, I appreciate your criticism, and on my next piece, I'll be sure to make it much more human/realworld-like, rather than another picture for a friend.
