How well have you managed to capture the poses? What could be improved?
I think I managed to capture the poses well. Identifying the central axis at the beginning, by drawing it, really helped me and particularly helped in achieving the stance or movement in a short sketch. I don't know what specifically could be improved. I am sure the end result will improve the more practice I do and using the technique of establishing a central axis so it becomes more second nature when I want to capture a sense of movement.
Do you think that your figures balanced? If not where did you go wrong?
I think my figures are reasonably balanced to my eye. I think using the same model over again helps in getting the proportions right without too much trouble.
How did you go about conveying a sense of energy?
I looked to depict the action so I focused on the action rather than anything else. So if it was someone throwing a ball I would focus on the arms and the ball and the stance. Focusing on depicting the action seemed to help in drawing it.
