Assignment

Use the images provided in the downloads to draw the Robo Bean and Anato Bean. Then add the oblique with the correct stretching, pinching, or twisting. Think about the motion and how the motion deforms the shape of the muscle.

The challenge being, visualising how the muscle wraps around the form and intersects with everything around it

These are based on the robo and anotó bean . i get the form of the flank and the rectus abdominous the connection with the serratus and obliques is still confusing to me some of these went wrong but I’m still uploading them , I took notes on them .

Well these are actually master studies however I’ve been very happy to finally understand how the external obliques attach to the serratus anterior

oblique recognition practice, i can pinpoint the flank portion, however I am still a bit confused about the thoracic portion, I'll definitely come back to this assignment in some time. any critique is very welcome :)

I have been drawing a lot but not uploading my assignments. So that‘s what I am doing now. I am in the Us for a couple of months and I don‘t have my scanner here - so I am trying my best to get good photos in natural light.

Retry of the assignment part 1and some life sketches. Still doesn't seem like this stuff is clicking for me. Any advice

Here are the skelly drawings. Had a hard time visualizing the muscle. Probably should study the attachment sites more.

Hello, here are my before and after. I did a lot of mistakes. And I still feel the form and the location of oblique are super hard.

According to the digital model, the origin of the obliques inserts just in the third/half of the lateral plane of the rib cage, approximately towards the middle of the height of the rib cage (at the fifth rib), above the level of the xiphoid process. It seems to me that in some of your drawings your obliques start out too low. But the gesture is very organic!

these are nice :)

Hi, this is my oblique assignments. I did this first before watching the video, It seems for some reasons i Did not draw the connection to the serrator properly on the later drawing. Any feedbacks or critiques will be greatly appreciated.
Love Byström
My drawing of the model at 2:03. It was just so clear that I needed to capture it. Didn’t pay attention to the gesture at all tho but understood the insertions much better than before so that’s good. Ok back to the video :)
