5. Proportions and Blocking- Shawn Encarnacion



The artist for this drawing started out by blocking out the parts of the body and the size of each part. By doing that he was able to ensure the proportions of the being man were correct.  Although this action figure type drawing has an extremely small head for the body he was able to get the proper proportions for what he was drawing by mapping out the idea of the body before going into details.  It is easy to end up with an oversized arm or undersized leg if you do not map out the drawing geometrically prior to adding detail.
