Asking for help. How could I get the proportions right on this? May do this again.
Thanks.
I'd highly recommend finding a reference to work off of. That's a fairly straightforward pose so you shouldn't be too hard pressed to find something similar.
Try to start building the frame up first and using guide lines and don't worry about all the detail until you've got the "skeleton" in place because that's what's going to keep your proportions in check. When we just start free handing, even on a life study, we tend to let stuff sag or slip so we get all kinds of goofy placements.
@Ronin356 - also, it seems all of your faces (and to an extent, their bodies) seem to skew on a diagonal. The right sides of everything are higher than the left sides. When creating the base/skeleton that Juggernut is suggesting, try to make sure you're not skewing your forms.
We've been watching dogs for extra money and sketching the doggo on a thank-you card has been one of my only drawing outlets in recent months. A few dogs I loved dearly:
Snickers is an 80 lb brindle mastiff who gets tucked in every night and Parmesan cheese on every meal.
Maya has rolls of fat on top of her head that slip forward while she sleeps. Also maybe she is Doodman's dog?
if you were me and you had to put the words 'Feminist Witch' and 'Hate Fuck' onto this picture where would you put them? I'm a terrible graphic designer

Like for an album cover?
Big white block at the top "feminists witch" with small white serif at the bottom "hate fuck"

If its for a metal album cover just do a bunch of spidery scribbles all over the place and tell everybody it says "Feminist Witch: Hate Fuck" and nobody will question it.
Been trying my hand at a bit of digital painting. Giving myself a time limit of an hour for anything I do so I don't waste too much time while trying to get better. Here is a bit of almost-Ripley.

Not that I know anything, but I feel that last one could benefit from a saturation boost.
Depends on the mood you're going for though.

Been a dogs age since I've shared a doodle. Mostly just lurking. Here is a thing I did.
Here's a little thing I made together with my girlfriend.
