THE ANATOMY TUTORIAL THAT MOST OF YOU SEEM TO WANT SO BAD.

Oh my god, I dont know why you people want me to teach you anatomy, because:

a.) I'm a horrible teacher
b.) I suck at anatomy myself. >:

BEFORE anyone decides to bash me for being so inaccurate and saying "YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, BETCH." I would like to stress the fact that I am a self taught artist and have never taken any formal training in art. Everything I know is through my own experience, and anything in this tutorial is my own personal view on anatomy, and how I think it would be easier for other people to learn my method. Just as I stated in my tutorial, I found it weird using the head stacking method-- SO with this, I found a more helpful way to measure limbs without continuously drawing little circles.

It'd be really great if I actually help some of you out with this, so feel free to leave me a comment stating so. :] Those comments really make my day.

Also, feel free to link others to this page if you find it useful, and think that others might want to see it. :] Please ask before posting this on other sites first, and if you do, I need you to credit me, because I poured long hours of thought into this and I dont want it getting stolen. xD;;


Love always,

this is definitely one of the best anatomy tutorials ive ever come across!
The way you do the anatomy is much more easier than the head stacking method (:
thanks for this, it'll come in handy

Haha, yeah.. I never really got the whole head stacking method. xD;; I mean, what if your person is bending right? How does THAT apply.

I hope it will! *v*
I've been thinking up some good ideas to introduce different ways of coloring into one simple tutorial.

Is there anything in particular you would like to know?

HeavenlyNight In reply to owdof [2010-01-09 01:42:14 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm well....
Do you use paint tool sai? D:
If you don't, i think programs like photoshop have similiar kinda tools, so it could still help sai users.
I think i'd particularly like to know about how you colour the skin and clothes most of all

owdof In reply to HeavenlyNight [2010-01-09 01:50:13 +0000 UTC]

Ohhh, yes I do! xDD haha.
The tools I use on SAI are so different from photoshop though. D: I think I might have my tutorial compare different brushes in SAI and photoshop, and maybe try to get the same effects from SAI in photoshop.

Hmmm. Skin and clothes. I shall see what I can do! :]

HeavenlyNight In reply to owdof [2010-01-09 14:36:12 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm yeees. good idea.
I use Sai too, but im pretty sure some of your other watchers will use photoshop or open canvas or something D:

Haha, thanks ^^
Can't wait (:
