Using
the head height as a measurement the figure height is about 6.5 - 8
heads total. Various markers on the body fall along this interval. From
the top of the figure, the line of the nipples falls at the bottom of
the second head interval, the belly button is roughly at the bottom of
the third interval, the base of the pubic area falls at the bottom of
the fourth interval, and the line of the knees lays roughly in the
middle of the sixth interval. Remember, these are guidelines, they are
only viable when the figure is seen at eye level and standing straight
up (no bends or twists). The process of using an interior measure to
find proportion in the figure is what is most important.
A
description of the horizontal axis will provide a closer representation
of the pose, distribution of weight etc. Notice how the adjustment of
the weight causes these Axi to no longer be parallel.
