Muscles - Back view

The human body is a complex, elegantly designed, beautiful machine. I still don't completely understand it and I probably never will. But, exercises like this get me closer.

Comics for Citypaper

Citypaper is running a comic issue, calling for submissions. Here are my submissions in color and greyscale. As you can tell I really need to work on my photoshop skills.

Muscles

Here is the continuation of the bones exercise. This time I draw out the skeleton on tracing paper over the figure drawing, Then I draw the muscles over the bones. Most muscles are easier to draw because they can are closer to the skin. However the muscular system is extremely complex making it quite tricky, especially the forearms and lower legs.

Dem Bones/ My 100th post

I've been doing an exercise from The Natural Way to Draw that I think is really cool. You take a figure drawing that you have already done and lay tracing paper over it. Then using an anatomy book draw the skeleton inside the figure. Its also a good way to check your proportions of the figure as it points out mistakes you may not have otherwise seen. Next step is to attach the muscles.
