  • To draw the arm, it's best if we have a brief understanding of the muscles at work. The Deltoid is the shoulder and it connects to the chest and back. I like to think of it as a puffy heart shape. The Bicep is usually an oval or rounded diamond. It stretches all the way down from the Deltoid to the fold in the arm. Now the Tricep is best thought of as a fortune cookie shape with elongated edges..

  • It cuts off slightly earlier than the Bicep, making gap inbetween it and the elbow. Now notice the Bicep and Tricep aren't touching. There's a small gap of muscle inbetween them that helps separate the front from the back. The Elbow is where the upper arm ends and leads to the forearm. It's easily thought of as a triangle.

  • Now the dark shaded part, for lack of a better term, I call the Rotating Forearm. This is because it starts from the outer part of the upper arm, between the Bicep and Tricep and twists in, following the thumb when the wrist rotates. Notice there's a bump on it right after the crease of the arm. This is what I call the Forearm Bicep.

  • Now the lightly shaded Non-Rotating area on the back of the arm is where the Ulna bone lays. It's edge makes up the Elbow, and goes all the way down to the wrist. When the arm is twisted, it doesn't move too much. Instead it leads down to, and follows the pinky. It is usually always defined and easy to find on the arm.

  • When drawing the arm It's best just to give slight hints and indications where muscles lie. Don't get hung up on depicting all the muscles, It's best to just think of them as grouped forms working together i.e., shoulder, upper arm, forearm. It takes practice, but soon you'll get the form down. Some anatomy tips are; → The arm's upperarm and forearm are equal in length. The wrist should be ...

  • at the same level as the shoulder when curled in. →The elbow lays directly between both upper and lower arm. When relaxed at the sides, the elbow levels slightly above the belly button. (The bb sagging lower on heavier speciments, near bottom of arm.) →The hands level off just below the crotch, reaching mid-thigh. (Varies little with longer/shorter arms/hands)

  • Alright so Abs are difficult because follow too many rules, it looks fake, too little it come out weird. I've found it best to start by making a loose line that indicates the 6 (optional) bumps down the middle. The belly button goes smack dab in the middle. In fig. B you can see i try making a diamond pattern with six rectangles. The top are mostly the shortest in height, the bottoms the longest.

  • A personal touch I do is like to outline the rib cage some. Also note that abs don't always start immediately under the pecs. This is part of the reason I line the Ribs, so I can separate the pecs and abs. It's also best to not make all the individual shapes of the abs symmetric. This makes it look more organic and natural. And last note, don't try to outline all the details. Leave some gaps...

  • between individual abs and lines. This shows only subtle mass instead of being overly defined.

  • Alright, so to get comfortable drawing hands it's good to know the lay of the land. For instance, the top (fingers) and bottom (palm) half of the hand are about equal. The thumb also reaches where the fingers attatch and tends to point outwards. The middle finger is the tallest, followed by the ring and then pointer, with the pinky being the shortest.
