In this article you'll learn about one of the most powerful tools we offer in the How to Draw Comics Academy: our Feedback Sessions.

In this lesson you'll learn is a very simple, 'join the dots' approach for foreshortening that not only works, but actually makes it fun. The Rayman Method takes out all the complication, leaving you with a more intuitive way to plot out your character's pose, with foreshortening in mind, right from the get go. By the end, you'll be pushing the limits of depth and dimension in your characters, as they leap off the page with more 3D'ness than ever before.

Throughout the demonstration, I'll show you the differences between regular poses, and poses that are pushed to the absolute limit. Then we'll look at broken poses, how they end up like that and the best way to avoid them. We'll look at range of motion for each part of the human body so that you have a solid understanding of it's potential and limitations in posing!

In this lesson, I'm going to break down my process for keeping the proportions of your characters in check when pushing and pulling them into those dynamic, foreshortened poses. You'll learn how to stretch the measurements of the human body, and compose your characters into almost any depth enhanced pose - without breaking them.

The chest and breasts make up a majority of the forward facing upper torso, making them a prominent spectacle when it comes to character bust shots - and as a comic artist, trust me, you'll be given plenty of opportunity to draw them. In this lesson, Ed Foychuk shows us how!

In this lesson, the art of sequencing your story into panels. You'll learn what to show in them, how to present it, and the best way to capture the emotional tone of every moment.

Because as you well know, if you've ever watched one of Ed's classes before, he has a knack for taking the complication out of even the most intimidating topics.

In this lesson, we dive into drawing characters at different distances, with a laser focus on the art of simplification. This isn't about just "drawing smaller" or leaving things out. It's a specific skill... where you know exactly what to leave out and what to keep in to maintain the essence of your character. Mastering this skill allows you to create those epic, expansive scenes without losing their identity.

In this lesson, we’re diving deep into the male torso - breaking it down into simple, manageable forms you can actually understand and use in your drawings. I’ll show you how the rib cage, pelvis, and spine all come together to build the structure of the torso, and how to see through the complexity so you’re not overwhelmed by all the anatomy sitting on top.

Learn how to draw consistent comic book characters across panels. In this lesson, I’ll take you through the full process of designing a character from scratch. From there, we’ll move into the real test - replicating that character across three different shots, just like you would in an actual comic. Each panel shows the character in a different pose and from a new angle, but the core design, silhouette, and proportions stay locked in.

In this lesson you'll learn a simple, straight forward method for drawing the pelvis that begins with a basic bowl form - that anyone can draw! We'll use this bowl as the foundation for our pelvis, plugging it into the midsection of the torso, and the legs. From there I'll show you how to structure the key muscle groups surrounding the pelvis - the glutes, groin, sartorius - and how they connect to the hips and thighs.

In this lesson, we’ll take a practical, form-based approach to building the core of the torso. I’ll show you how to sculpt it from simple, solid shapes that make sense - whether your figure is standing upright, twisting sideways, or hunched into a punch.

Throughout this class you'll get a step-by-step method that's easy to execute, and shows you how to build up an anatomically accurate, upper torso from the barebones foundations.
