Hi everyone!
Years ago I did a series of tutorials on anatomy for drawing purposes (it basically means surface anatomy) where the aim was to take you along my learning path, when I started studying anatomy.
Unfortunately, I wasn't very diligent at the time, so I left anatomy for a while, but as I'm back on an autodidactic academic learning path, more diligent this time, I'm going to take another look at these tutorials and finish them :)
I've never done the legs part, for example.
So here are some practice sketches, this time I concentrated on the placement of the basic skeletal elements and especially the placement of the ribcage and pelvis, which is a really good foundation for any figure drawing - if you place the ribcage and pelvis correctly, with the right angle, linked to the spine, you will get a good final drawing quickly and efficiently.
You can see that I am also practising simple volumes to warm up my hand to the shapes of the rib cage and pelvis.
We can resume them into an egg shape for the rib cage and a rounded box for the pelvis.
It is also important to understand and draw the correct curve for the spine. It 's not that easy.
It is also important to have a sense of 3D and to know the angle at which a shape is oriented.
I hope you will like it! 😊
See you soon for more.
