Method 2 of 2: Draw Using Foreshortening

1. 
   1
   Foreshortening is the appearance of a 3-dimensional object to look shorter than its actual length depending on the position of the viewer. (Ex. The image shown is how a cylinder looks like viewed on its side, and how it looks shorter when one end faces the viewer until we can only see the circular end as it point directly towards the viewer.
2.

   Sketch the wireframe of the human figure. Note the left right arm and left upper leg appears shorter since it points towards the viewer.
3. 
   3
   Sketch the body shapes to give volume to the human figure. The same principle of foreshortening applies to the arm and leg since we use the cylinder to build the arms and legs.
