Body Painting Croqui

I was working on coming up with ideas for future body paints and decided that croquis (commonly used for sketching out fashion designs) would speed up my production. However, after a brief Google search, I couldn't find any that I felt were suitable for body painting! They were all outlandishly skinny and thin (which, while fine and visually appealing for fashion, made it very difficult for me to draw in all my design onto the tiny little body) and usually had hands crossing the body or one leg behind the other. I also couldn't find any croquis that were drawn with a grey outline (this is a personal preference on my part- I like to draw the body with a light grey color so that I can concentrate on filling in the color and design of the body painting).

So, I decided to make my own: complete with light grey outlines, realistic body figure type, no cross body arms or legs, and a front and back view. I figured that I would share the croqui with everyone else, and hopefully it will help you in the production of your own body painting ideas.




These croqui were made with reference from [ Basic Pose ] Character Base 4 by pyjama-cake on Deviantart.com.

Edit: I'm still not sure why the image is showing with the grey background- I am trying to work things out between Photoshop and Blogger to play nice and upload the image correctly. Please stand by.
