i dont fear the initial wonk in sketches because im confident enough in my ability to fix it later on down the line

there are some people who insist that you have to have a very solid foundation in the start of a drawing but i think whatever comes most naturally to you is the most helpful

a drawing is a collection of lines placed at your discretion that is finished at whatever point you decide for it to be finished, so even one line on a page is a drawing

the compliment to just one line being a finished drawing is the idea that any drawing is never finished because there is an infinite amount of reworking or adding that could happen to any given piece

sketching is somewhere within those realities, and it can be as thorough and meticulous or as bare bones as you like it to be

for me sketching is functional in design scenarios like this one, and its function is to establish an energy, pose, and character for me to follow later down the line

it will evolve and be reworked from one line to many lines until i see a nice development of 3D-appearing forms, and transition to lineart the second i think about adding another level of detail (the finished sketch is around level 3 detail for me)
