Details of the Mannikin Frame

I've spent the last the three weeks away from home - working near Chicago. Last weekend, I took the opportunity to take another look at the mannikin frame from Andrew Loomis’ Figure Drawing for All It's Worth (see The Mannikin Frame - Part One and Movement in the Mannikin Frame)

On the third page of mannikin frame drawings, Loomis adds more refinement to the frame – the whole figure appears more solid and realistic.

I struggled with the hips and the egg of the chest, but I am sure I these will get better with practice and that is what comes next.
