Anatomy tips?

Avatar

haha my anatomy isn’t that great but ill try to help you out a bit

so first off real people generally have one head’s width per shoulder and the edge of the pectoral muscle creates the separation between the arm and the body right

and then the ribcage builds out from under the pectorals. theres also back muscles but honestly idk about those. the elbows usually start at the last rib in the ribcage, and the fingertips reach mid thigh (this is a bad example because the elbow is bent but i wanted to show the dimensionality of the ribcage)

hips are a real pain and im not quite sure what i do about them. basically just draw a triangle and stick those leggies on.

giving your body… well, body is also tricky. you basically just have to look at a lot of people and create your own shorthand for proportions and dimensions. I like to follow sort of curvy lines and natural slumps.

and thats a pretty quick run down?? pretty much just… look at people and draw them as best you can. you don’t have to be perfect, you just have to get used to the basic rules that anatomy follows. As for hands….

theyre a mystery
