lady b11x1.jpg   If you look closely at this drawing, you can see the initial guideline that represents the action of the figure.   It runs up the center of the figure.  As I have said before keep your initial guidelines just light enough for you to see them.  Most times you will not have to erase them if they are light enough.  Moreover, most times, no one seems to notice them even if they are visible. 

Make the lines that represent the frame of the figure show action and excitement.  The better that you show your stick figures with exciting action, the better the final drawing will be when you apply the body parts.
