How to Draw Butts From Extreme Angles
We’ve saved the best butts for last: Get ready to draw butts from EXTREME ANGLES! Butt that’s not all. Want to learn how to draw a seated butt? Well, sit your butt down and watch this video!
How to Draw Butts From Any Angle
In this lesson we’ll learn a method to effectively draw butts from any angle and in any pose. We’ll start by reviewing the Robo Bean to be able to construct the torso from basic forms and pose it however we want. Then we’ll add anatomical forms that we learned in the previous butt anatomy lesson.
Inventing the Butt Muscles – Ass-ignment Demonstration
In this demonstration I’ll show you how to invent butt muscles on top of a skeleton and the things to think about to figure out how the muscles will deform to react to the pose.
How to Draw BUTTS!!!
Learn about the anatomy of the glutes and some tips on drawing them. There are three major butt muscles you should know to draw good butts: the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and tensor fasciae latae. Fat also plays an important role in the appearance on the surface.
A Behind the Scenes Look at the Butt Lesson
I will admit, I’ve been looking forward to making this lesson. BUTT it’s not quite ready yet. Here’s a little teaser of what you can expect when I release it next week (June 21st).
Why Your Proportions are Wrong and How to Fix Them
When you start a drawing, do you jump right in to drawing all the small parts? Knock it off!
If you’re not an advanced artist with a well trained eye, starting with details usually ends with wacky proportions. In this student critique, we’ll examine the work of two students who focused on drawing foot bones without following the big-to-small hierarchy. I’ll show you a 2D technique called “enveloping” and then a 3D process that helps keep your forms dynamic and in proportion. Woo!
Drawing Anatomy in Perspective – Leg Bone Critiques
It’s so important to think of perspective when you’re drawing anatomy. But how’s a person supposed to think of anatomy when the human body is basically a meat sack with a bunch little bumps and curves? In this critique, I picked one student who did an overall great job with simplifying the leg bones’ forms, but had a few problems applying perspective to their anatomy.
Simplifying the Foot for Easy Drawing
Feet are hard to draw, so I’m gonna break it down for you into simple forms. Once you learn and understand these forms, drawing feet is much easier. You’ll no longer have to draw them buried under drapery…grass…kittens or any other conveniently placed objects. Watch and learn! And don’t forget to try these out yourself. Learning from the video is important, but practicing the assignment drawings is the next important step to reaching mastery.
Advanced Foot Drawing Techniques
Okay, so you’ve already learned about the foot bones from my previous lesson. Now let’s learn the advanced stuff that really makes your drawings look good. Now before we go any further, I must warn you that you might find this technique highly frustrating. You might even struggle with it for the first thousand drawings or so, but with enough practice, you’ll develop the muscle memory and it will become handy.
How to Draw Feet with Structure – Foot Bone Anatomy
Since the foot is so bony, knowing the bones directly helps you draw the surface forms. The foot is challenging to draw because it’s flexible, asymmetrical, and should usually look like it’s on the ground (perspective). This lesson will focus on the overall design of the foot, along with the form, proportion, and mobility of the individual bones.
