A while back, I was watching a documentary of one of my favorite artist, Frank Frazetta, and he suggested something that all artists should do. He copied an entire anatomy book in one night. In his words, "I started with page one and copied the entire book–everything, in one night, from the skeleton up. I came back the next day like a dumb kid and said, 'Thank you very much, I just learned my anatomy.' " (Frank Frazetta Biography - http://frazettaartgallery.com/ff/bio/1940/1940_pg3.html)

A few years ago, I'd thought I'd do the same. Believe me, it works. These are samples from my scrapbook copied from a book called "Dynamic Figure Drawing" by Burne Hogarth first published in 1970.
