How did you study anatomy? I am trying to learn but am stumped 🥲
Hello beloved anon! I started because of a muscle system's test and it was drawing was the best way for me to study ngl... Also assume half of the terms here are misspelled
WRITING AND DRAWING HELPS WITH MEMORY AND SO DOES PRACTICE!!
So first you should have a basic idea of how bodies are built (I'm using sketches i already have). The basic shapes of how things fit together. Use rectangles, cylinders, spheres, whatever works! We need a base before we get into complex stuff
I drew my little base underneath and used a TON of references. I started with the arms because it's only 5 you really need to know. Deltoid, Bicep, Tricep, flexors and extendors. You can usually get away with not doing the flexor and extendors but I draw them for accuracy's sake for diagrams
Ones I suggest the most are: Pectorals are also pretty important, they tend to stand out Biceps Triceps deltoids Gastronemius (the orange calves in the above image) gluteus maximus, everyone loves those.
The reason why those specifically is those are the ones that stand out the most. They make the curves of the body (technially that would include the brachiradialis, but if you do that then may as well do the flexors and extendors)
Everything else you can bs until it looks good, i will be frank
I wanted to go in-depth so i made a static little dummy, gathered as many references as i needed, and just replicated what I saw.
If you wanna learn what they are called (I'm pretty sure you want to just know how to draw them though, so you can skip this) then make sure to LABEL them. I WILL SAY IT AGAIN, WRITING AND DRAWING HELPS WITH MEMORY AND SO DOES PRACTICE!!
After that I just put the bases in various poses and drew the muscles over them, challenging myself to do so without refs. Poses that are more dynamic help with knowing how they interact outside of just being relaxed. How they relax and contract (Biceps are really squishy, they almost turn into a ball when you curl your arm!!)
Of course you can just NOT label them, or section them off. You can, of course, just look at bodies and draw them WITH SKIN. You don't need to know the name of every one. Everyone's goals are different, and this is just how I did mine!!
Remember to have fun with it!!! Remember to take breaks!!
Also I still regularly use tubes in my art for the legs and arms. But it's like... better tubes.
#my art#my work#anatomy#asks#traditonal art#digital art#I had fun with the jojo sketch today#I also enjoy tormenting people by asking them to label the muscles#Anyways even if you use tubes like i do for limbs#IT WILL STILL IMPROVE#All the art i made before i did the study honestly looks mid now#to me#'Hey why did my anatomy suddenly get better?' -Me after literally drawing the muscle system for the second time that day#local god needs to shut up#MAN THIS WAS A YAPATHON

As a writer, I love going back through the comments I've gotten on AO3. I promise that the minute you take of your time has been appreciated for hours/months/years
#I still get comments on a fic I wrote about??? 5 years ago?? and it means so much to me#It's also genuinely such a nice boost of confidence#It's really easy as humans to dismiss anything old of yours as bad#But it makes me happy knowing I've improved#Your comment saying I'm a good writer based on that? Oh BAYBEE it's been constant practice since then

For the twins in time AU, I genuinely wonder what kind of people the young twins grow up into because of Stan’s/Ford’s influence. Especially if it takes years for the portal to get fixed.
(Sorry if it seems like I already sent this question, I don’t know if it got sent the first time I asked)
I haven’t fully fleshed out how Ford grows up in the past but I do have thoughts on Stan presently
#he’s still his goofy brash self as well#but I do think he gets an outlet for all that through monster hunting and trips and stuff#he does get comfortable here though…#I’m thinking we have something play out that’s similar to the science fair#where they get close to being able to send him home and he breaks something or maybe even purposely sabotages it…#and I think he sneaks out a lot too#maybe he uses the secret identities in that way like when he’s in town he’ll pretend to be Pinley pinington#and that’s how he develops his scammy/improv skills#FORD ON THE OTHER HAND#I think he might actually be MORE emotionally stunted because Stan tries so hard to protect him#that it goes the other way#they kind of become reliant on each other in a really unhealthy way or maybe Stan sort of steers ford away from his smart stuff#to prevent the future from happening#not maliciously but yk#like I said I haven’t fleshed his story out as fully yet so I will get back to you#but there are some interesting possibilities#my art#ask#gravity falls#twins in time au#Stan pines#Stanley pines

God the rogue proposal is going to live in my head rent free for a while. Rogue isn’t a good liar!! He doesn’t lie at all during the episode. Any deception or mystery around him is that he just doesn’t say much, and when he does, he doesn’t give details. That shit was genuine (because everything he does is genuine) and it throws the doctor (guy whose primary hobby is Lying) COMPLETELY off guard I’m going to think about it for a million years
#I’ve seen a lot of posts referencing rogue’s ‘facade’ or ‘act’ but he doesn’t lie!!! he’s bad at improv!!!#he’s just genuinely like this. he’s an introvert. he’s a fucking nerd.#representation for characters who can’t lie but are still Cool just like me for real#dw spoilers#doctor who rogue#Doctor who

hiii !! im so sorry you are not feeling the greatest, and i how you feel better soon ~ may i suggest some college au where dulcinea is the teacher assistant of a gideons and harrows class, and gideon can simply stop gawking at her <3 (extra points if harrow is kind of jelous) :D i send happy thoughts your way, keep pushing through :)
I have no idea what Dulcinea is teaching or even doing here. Neither does Gideon. And no one cares. Except for Harrow. She cares a lot.
God the more I draw her, the more I love giving Gideon some longer hair...
#It's been exactly one month since this message so!#I am obviously better by now thank you so much <3#it was a very sweet message#I took this to practice some quick coloration. I am still not quite happy but coloring is becoming more fun now#This is the year I actually wanna improve#tlt#my art#gideon nav#harrowhark nonagesimus#griddlehark#dulcinea#requests

terrisas really funny ithink
#kingdom hearts#kh#my art#image id in alt#kh fanart#Saix#saïx#isa#terra#kh terra#terrisa#Moonrocks#<-? I think people call them that sometimes. I think its cute#Kh saix#kh saïx#kh isa#Not tagging this xemsai because its only a little bit about it. I mean xemsais the joke but ykwim#Ok for real though ive been thinking about them these last few weeks and actually they're really cool 2me#Like theres whole “came back wrong” dynamic since isa remembers everything and terras basically a whole different person#And adding onto that saix and xemnas relationship wasnt exactly. Normal. So i could totally see something like isa-#-subconsciously reverting back to how he acted in kh2 while terras like ‘? You dont have to do that?” And like theyre both AFFECTED by-#-xemnas but in different ways and terra can see how xemnas was through isa and augh#Anyway. This is still an akusai house but i think isa can have an unhealthy one sided attachment to a person he barely knows out of their-#-resemblance to someone he ‘sacrificed himself to’ (kh character files words not mine).#It improves the biodiversity.#terraisa
