Thank you!

In learning skeletal structure, proportions, etc. - the rules - of how a realistic human body looks and moves, you also learn how to bend the rules.
If any of that made sense. Anyhow, keep at it, I find it's always very interesting to watch a person progress like this!
And thank you as well! Makes me smile when people point out improvements.
You do have a point with the anatomy studies. All of my practice so far is with pictures of real people, but I retain very little detail when i actually draw from my head. I'd really like to have the skill to draw without reference like what some artists are capable of so pretty much all of these here are done without them. As a way of checking my progress to that goal.
I've had a ton of artist friends drill into me to use references more. I should do one with ref in a more realistic style for here!
Also... what would you consider a good way of doing such a study? consistent sketches of the skeleton and movement ranges or full on refined drawings... or even blind contour? (Which i love btw, i avoided it cause of awkwardness for a long time but i think its really helping me see better since i started this year!)
Edit: Finished that Coloring!
