This is a 40 minute drawing of a skeleton using a B4 pencil. This is a great vantage point because of the oblique angle.
There is some great foreshortening happening on to the picture area that's why the idea of under what angle the skeleton is lying on the ground is clear. A lot of parts from the skeleton have went through a forshortening drawn on to the 2D plane. That give is great depth. The drawing is good in value as you can see some selfshadows and some cast shadows, but it isn't that great in contrast so it isn't clear where exactly are the highlights. However the ribs aren't with the right size they are too long making the chest look bigger than it should be from this angle. So in this area the foreshortening hasn't been applied that accurate. The head that can be slightly seen looks bigger than it should be as well.
This drawing isn't entirely finished as there are some bits missing. The background isn't fully drawn, the drapery is only half way drawn, although it's been nicely detailed around the skeleton and shaded, and the left foot of the skeleton misses a few fingers.
