Hey! I've been practicing gesture drawing for the past 3 months and I feel quite happy with my progress. I have been following Michael Hampton's book and youtube videos, and they have really opened my eyes into figure drawing and motion as a whole.
My goal from the very start with gesture drawing was to get really good at drawing the human body. In order to create any character I want from imagination. I just really want to master it.
Here is a short overview of my progress:

I feel very proud of my progress and I have become more comfortable drawing gesture.
But now I feel kinda... Lost.
From what I've read, they say that I should start with construction and implement more 3d into my gestures, but I don't really know how or where to even start?
I've tried a bit as shown in the last image, but I really don't understand how to take the next step into transforming my gestures into actual 3d people, instead of just glorified stickmen lol.
I would really enjoy help on how I can improve my gesture drawing. But more importantly I would like help knowing what to do now/next?
