Polgara character design pose

Sketching up a figure to do my Polgara character costume/designs on.

This isn't something I usually put on my blog, but I thought it might be interesting for you to see my figure process/under-drawing.

I like to take care when drawing up a character pose to use body language. Polgara is quite a strict and superior character. Because of these traits, I have given her an extended spine and raised head. Her splayed fingers also make her look quite particular. There's no reason to do character design poses this way, other than the fact it helps me get into the "mood" of the character.
