FUCK THIS I SPERFECT, IT SHOWS THE ARM PRONATING AND ALL THE MUSCLES SHIFTING ALONG WITH THE WRIST

IT EVEN HIGHLIGHTS THE ULNA BONE  

HEY THIS IS THE ULTIMATE ANATOMY REF, FUCK THOSE MISLEADING TERRIBLE FUCKING “ANATOMY” TUTORIALS THAT GOEAS AROUND TUMBLR, THIS IS ALL OYU NEED, LOOK AT THE LATISIMUS STRETCHING OVER THE SERRATUS, THE PECTORAL MUSCLE MOVESUPWARDS AND OVER THE BICEP AND EXTENDS  ALONG WITH THE ARM THERES EVEN THE CORACOBRACHIALIS;. AAAA OMFG I’M SO HAPPYYYYYY

Admin Kin here: This is one of the most helpful references in our library, but I wondered if any of our followers might be able to help identify the color coded muscles? It would be great to be able to know what is what while practicing from these sheets!

Sure, @anatomicalart! The colors get reused between the arm/back angles so I’ll separate them.

Arm view: Red = Deltoids (all three heads are in one color) Blue = Latissimus Dorsi Green = Biceps Brachii Yellow = Triceps Brachii

Forearm: Red = One of the wrist flexors Blue = Brachioradialis

Back view, left side: Red = Deltoids (all three heads are in one color) Blue = Latissimus Dorsi Green = Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, Teres Major Yellow = Trapezius (all groups one color)

Back view, right side: Red = Supraspinatus Blue = Serratus Anterior  Green = Rhomboids Yellow = Levator Scapulae

Tuesday Tips - Structure/Gesture: Why Not Both!

Probably one the most compelling issue to deal with when drawing characters. There’s clear pros and cons to both approach. The key, IMO, is to straddle the line between both. Give appeal and energy through the use of gesture, but always give hints of structure, weight and solidity to make the character feel like it lives in an environment. I do a quick, dynamic gesture first, then I go back in and add some structure on a second pass. In a rush, I’ll focus the structure pass on faces, hands and feet (feet: their position on the ground to give weight and/or balance to the pose.) -Norm @grizandnorm #tuesdaytips #100tuesdaytips #100tuesdaytipsbook #structuregesture #whynotboth

A tip for blending when painting digitally: use a transition color! I quickly made this when my brother asked for art advice while I was working on a painting for my best friend. (I was watching a lot of makeup videos to pick out her gifts). 

How do you find the transition color?

Reblogging this so I can add the info! Sorry guys, this is an old post and I didn’t add the information when I first posted it. This is how I find the transition color: “What I tend to do is pick the color i’m trying to transition into (in this case the light skin tone), shift the hue a bit (in this case, towards red), and make it more saturated. Of course, you can make it darker if you feel that’s better. It’s all up to you how different it should be. I always have to play around with my colors a little to find the right one"

How do you like pick your colors?? They're so pleasing to look at oof

sure here’s how I pick colours for flatting !

you can see how i shade/get more detailed on my flats from there here: http://hattersarts.tumblr.com/post/179284014305/would-you-ever-do-a-tutorial-on-how-you-color-it 

now this next bit is just colour theory 101 but here’s an example of what i mostly avoid in my work where i want a colour pallet that fits with each other, if i have something fairly saturated (like skin here) i have to mute/desaturate the other side of the colour wheel when i use that colour, in this example, the blue of the eyes. this can be a great way to get something to stick out on the other hand!

Anonymous asked:

do you have any tips on drawings noses? particularly non-white noses?? all the tutorials are european noses and i just want to learn how to draw my own nose!!

oh i feel you. the nice thing about being a poc is that you can always study yourself in the mirror to learn how to draw yourself better! but anyways:

if you’re wondering which kinds of noses are frequent for which race, i like to use this guide. I can’t verify how accurate it is, but it’s pretty damn comprehensive for racial traits around the world. I also really like this guide for learning how to draw a variety of East Asian noses (it’s not all flat!). Here’s an equivalent guide that includes drawing African noses. And there’s always Google images for more specific requirements.

+ 3D models are really helpful when drawing noses: x x x

+ here are some general nose tutorials by better artists lol: x x

EDIT: Check the notes for an updated version (different names are used)

also, how do you go about drawing two characters interacting? like maybe just standing next to each other or walking next to each other in a natural way because i never know what to do with the rest of their bodies after i draw their head and neck :,) i know this isn’t that well explained and i truly understand if it isn’t something doable since i know ur super busy and have more important things to do but thank u so so much in advance
