Drawing Life vs. Drawing Machine

We've been having a "life drawing" session which meets almost every week. It's really nice to be drawing a model again, and this model is the best any of us have ever worked with. She's an ex-gymnast and gets the most amazing torque in her body and can hold the (often very inventive) poses for a long time. It's really awesome. Everyone in the class is mellow and excited to be there. The quality is super-high; many people doing amazing photo-realism in a matter of minutes. It's an interesting baseline. I'm not really going for the whole photo-realism thing, but am having a lot of fun feeling my eye and hand sync up again.

Also, if anyone has The Coup: Genocide and Juice, that would also be appreciated.
