Base - Katana strike

Baselines for a drawing I'm working on, figured I could post it here for anyone who needs the reference.

I have very limited knowledge about sword wielding, so I recommend using as many real life references as possible. This is only to show the way I draw a male body, especially the back/shoulder area.

Also this is for a left-handed wielder. If you want to draw a right-handed character, the position of the hands will have to be switched.

NEVERMIND THAT FOOT. It's extremely derpy, but feet aren't getting any of my inspiration today.

Feel free to use/reference to your heart's content and link others to this page.
