Why did i make this

[vivi-wonderland]

My first anatomy tutorial. How I connect arms to the torso. Simplified the muscles for better comprehension

PS. Pectoral is misspelled as “pectorial” in the picture. Don’t make that mistake haha

And I’d love to see the art made from using these as reference, you can message or tag me.. whatever you want

Edit: The extended names of the muscles:

Neck - Sternocleidomastoideus

Traps - Trapezius

Lats - Latissimus Dorsi

A little quick tutorial (if it even counts) on how I do lineart on ears. It's a pet peeve of mine to see ear anatomy so off even in fancy commercial artwork, but I realize it can seem harder than it actually is to simplify the anatomy of the ear. Of course ears can vary wildly- feel free to take this as a template, and then push the lines around to achieve different shapes! The simplified contours help serve as a baseline for most ear shapes, even fantasy ones.

It is much, much easier to add real-life, relatively anatomically correct piercings/ear jewelry onto ears that have at least the proper base of contours and shapes. This simplified format allows for a lot of piercings to believably sit snugly on your character's ears.

I hope this helps! I know it is easy to just do guesswork on the inside of the ear when drawing it- even famous illustrators seem to do it, or are in the bad habit of drawing some really odd ear anatomy. It's not perfect, but definitely a bit closer to what you'd see on a real0life person in a nice simplified format.

Upon request someone asked for an anatomy tutorial! I kept it fairly general but if anyone wants something more specific, I’m happy to make a more of them :D

 Although a little different than some of the usual tips shared here, I feel a lot of artists struggle with character development on the smaller scale. It is easy to create a long backstory and flesh out the grand legend of a particular character. It is a greater task to convey a captivating story in a shorter length. Just because this is a writing tip doesn’t mean it can’t help visual artists with character development. Here are some helpful tips that the link expands upon in detail:

1. Understand that a short story is not the same as a novel 

2. Start as close to the end as possible 

3. Keep up the pace 

4. Keep the number of characters small 

5. Give the reader someone to root for 

6. Create conflict! 

7. Suggest a backstory but don’t elaborate 

8. Appeal to the five senses 

9. Dialogue should bring your story to life 

10. Edit until it hurts
