At a young age, I tried to draw a couple of action scenes, but quickly realised it was not as simple as I thought. The character's pose had to be impactful enough, and it ended up looking lacklustre and lacking any action at all. I realised I needed to study movement, and how real people or animated characters moved in battle in films, cartoons, anime or games. Breaking down the movement frame-by-frame helped me understand how the human body functioned in those scenes.
With that in mind, do note that you may need to do some posing yourself! Studying poses or watching action scenes may be helpful, but your artwork will need a personal touch. Often we try to look for stock images online, but sometimes they don't seem to fit our needs. You can be your own best model, especially with dynamic poses as it can be tricky to find someone executing the same pose and angle you need.
