Hi guys , my name is Marcel .

My name is Marcel .

It says so right here in every video of mine , it's not Marshall , it's not manual , it's not Asia and no , it's definitely not IKEA as you know , I've made a couple of videos about drawing bodies , but some of you were like , wow , the videos about female bodies , goddam it .

And yeah , you're right .

I've never made a step by step video like it did with the male version .

So yeah , here we go .

Just before we start obviously like with every human out there , there are also many different women with different shapes and different sizes and different body types and none of them want to date me .

I don't want to click bait you guys .

That's why we're drawing the exact same model that's on the thumbnail of this video .

So yeah , I'm not fat phobic and I also don't dislike muscular women far from it as always , my videos are not being made by a team or something .

They are 100% made by me and they are a ton of work and you can support this work just by clicking a small little P and G of the thumb .

Thank you very much .

You would make my day for real .

Also subscribe , please .

Alright , let's grab something to draw and learn how to draw women like a like a lady or anything in between .

I don't care .

OK .

This is how we're gonna do it .

We'll start off basic as always because just as promised , we will go through this step by step , drawing a body out of the most basic shapes and then shaping it more and more in detail .

So how do we start ?

If you remember with men , you just needed your basic dynamic line that you could use as a guide for the body .

But with women , you are better off using two of those dynamic lights .

One line goes inward right to the hip while the other one has to balance it out .

If you take a look at the silhouette of some basic female proportions , you will see that this is quite common .

I don't have to tell you which body is supposed to be male and which one is supposed to be female because the gesture of the body can tell you a lot about it .

Now , while we're at the topic of silhouettes , you can spot that these female silhouettes are also proportioned differently than your average male ones .

All right .

And with these criteria in mind , let's build ourselves a very basic female body .

But before you start off , don't forget the dynamic line , I was just talking about a second ago .

Now , this is your average stick man , just like most beginners would draw the movement or weight is spread just like you saw before .

That's what these dynamic guidelines are for .

I think arms and legs are kind of self explanatory orbs are for the joints like shoulders and elbows and the big or is obviously supposed to be a the oval shapes , the rib cage and so on .

Now , the pelvis is the most important thing here .

If you saw my video about males , you would know that the male pelvis was tiny in comparison with women , though , you have a much broader pelvis , which is why this is the point where the dynamic line changes .

But yeah , these were the basics .

So we're good .

Then let's get more detail here .

Let's start systematically with the arms .

Like I said , at the beginning , we're drawing a very slim person today .

So watch out to also use slim shapes here as well .

This way , the finished arm looks a lot more feminine and delicate if that's what you're going for .

Also watch out that the arms are overlapping with your rib cage .

If you want to keep your character a bit slimmer .

If they were on the outside , the shoulders would look very broad and more muscular .

Again .

Now , even though I said we were going for a very slim person here , the Irish are not just plain sticks with your arms , your elbows should be the biggest part here .

This seldomly changes no matter which body type you're drawing .

So yeah , the lower part of the arm should also have a kind of diamond shape here .

Now , obviously , I won't have the time to explain hands and details here .

But something that you can keep in mind is that in order to make hands look more feminine , you could also just draw them more soft and round and a tad more elongated , just fy , I women also have the same chest muscles as men do .

So if you want to draw them , you totally can .

In general , there are a lot of muscles you could draw here .

But like I said , we're going for a very delicate body here .

So I'll just give you the rundown of what's actually visible here .

First of all , with slimmer bodies , you can barely see the trapezius muscle right here .

So I would only draw it in a very deflated way just so the neck doesn't stick out like a sore thumb .

And also something you could draw would be the color bone , the less muscles and body fat you have , the more visible it is .

So yeah , how visible this one actually is , is completely up to you .

Now , the last thing that's missing are two circles because of come on .

You know why just look out for the position , especially people that don't have these on their body tend to draw them way too high .

I'd say if they are starting right below your shoulders , you're doing it correctly though .

Obviously , how low they are hanging depends on their size and weight .

So they all basically contain the same thing .

That's right .

Hopes and dreams also .

That's the reason why I showed you the muscles from before .

That's because these muscles show you where these balls are actually visibly attached to .

This is especially useful when you draw women in different perspectives .

Anatomy is just that helpful .

I mean , there are some more things that I could say about this topic .

But the last time I talked about this topic , my video got age restricted .

So if you want to learn more about the , well , you know , the the women parts just watch these videos and stuff .

Now let's continue with an area that's less problematic and won't get this video demonetized or age restricted .

Oh Fuck , fuck .

I did say this in my video about man already , but I can also admit it here .

Drawing the stomach was always a problem for me .

I just never got it to look right .

You know , but it's actually simpler than you might think .

At first , after all , you only really need to connect the pelvis to the red cage here and that's about it .

Oo obviously in real life , your hip and your rib cage aren't physically connected though .

Otherwise you would look like this .

Also , maybe you are used to drawing the infamous vcu lines with male bodies .

These are just the abdominal muscles so really ripped .

Women could have them too though , you're better off just drawing these lines right here .

These are not muscles .

These lines are just a point where the legs meet the pelvis .

So it should be pretty obvious to tell where they are .

You could also add some details here , like for example , a belly button .

And since we're drawing a very slender person , you could also slightly draw in some parts of the rib cage .

Or alternatively , you can get rid of all of these details because your character is wearing their pants like this .

What's it with pants and all of these sponge Bob memes man ?

OK .

Basically , the only really important thing that I could talk about here is the angle since female pelvis is work a bit different , their legs are also angled differently .

Now , that's kind of the only difference , you know , the rest of the legs would be the very same thing as I explained in my video about men , but I would obviously never just recycle that part , right ?

Plus shut up .

My payroll at the school is too low for me to care .

October 1st .

Now when looking at your legs , your first instinct might be to say I know how that works .

That's just like drawing arms , right ?

Yes , arms and legs are very similar yet very different .

The base is kind of the same .

That's true .

But the proportions are not unlike your bicep .

Your thigh muscles are the strongest and biggest muscles in your whole body much bigger than your bicep .

Some people out there even have thighs so strong and big , they can crush watermelons with it .

And if you are one of those people , please call me .

That's why while drawing , you actually start way bigger here than you do with an arm similar to a teardrop shape now .

But what about the rest of the leg ?

Like I said , it's similar but not the same as withdrawing an arm as you can see , the lower arm starts out big while the leg has the big part right in the middle .

That's what I always got wrong when I was drawing legs back in the day .

But you are now a lot wiser than I was .

So when drawing the lower part of the leg , you should rather use this diamond shape .

And now , I mean , look at it , I think that looks pretty true to an actual leg even though those are only two very simple shapes .

And again , with the feet , I won't go into much detail about drawing a foot here .

I personally think you're good if you're drawing feet like this for starters , that's how I'm doing it as well .

The most important thing is that even while drawing such a simple shape like this , you can still kind of check the balance of your character .

And if it looks actually viable .

Also , if you do have feet yourself , please call me .

Ok .

Ok .

That was just , that one was just a joke , but the one with the thighs wasn't .

And that's it .

That's the whole video about drawing a basic female body .

And here's a cheat sheet that I've drawn just for you to screenshot for the low , low price of dropping a like though a comment as well as a subscription would be very appreciate , share it as well if you want to continue with drawing hair or drawing a face or many other things .

Well , I do have a whole playlist with all of these things .

You just need to click it .

It's on screen right now .

Well done .

My name is Marcel and class is finally over .
