Lately I've been reading and doing studies from Figure Drawing Design and Invention, which is an awesome anatomy book from Michael Hampton. It's a little light on the anatomical specifics and focuses more on breaking down the body into simple shapes that can be easily remembered and drawn from various angles. Highly recommended for anyone learning to draw the human figure from memory.

TTC: The Cygnus War, Part 1
The Tessa Chronicles: The Cygnus War #1 (Aces & Veterans)
It was sleek, fast, deadly. Typical Coralate semi-atmospheric fighter, but still no match for Tessa’s Seindrive 4 Blasterchild. The underslung Agere PD cannon on the nose of her rig alone could turn the Cygnan into swiss cheese from 50 meters with a good shot, and it was a peashooter compared to the other ordnance she was carrying. They didn’t build strong ships on Cygnus, but they knew how to build an engine like nobody’s business.
The skies over Tarsis 12 were a deep afternoon purple, visceral against the rich reds and pinks pooling up from the dark aquamarine line of the horizon, and the Cygnan was a hot spot of brilliant silver in the glowing crimson reticle of her heads-up-display. 762 meters and arcing to the left at 2837 km/h. Hauling ass, but still running on conventional drive. Too risky to run the sublight stuff this far into the atmosphere.
Lips tightened, a sharp smile spreading across her face.
