Deltoid





Here is the progression of a drawing of a model with a muscle overlay. This is such a great exercise if you want to understand anatomy, because when a real model is in a pose in front of you, you really have to consider what the muscle is doing. You can't just copy an anatomical diagram, you have to observe how the muscle twists or shortens or lengthens according to a pose. What comes forward? What goes back?

It's here too that I starting experimenting with the terminator, and noticing that it really is effective.
I like that I can see so much progress, this drawing compared to my first of the trapezius, in just a three day workshop.
