Constructive Human Anatomy Final

The quarter is almost over for me.  This is also my last quarter as a student.  This quarter I took my last two classes for my Art History minor which were Ancient Art and Architecture and Art and Archeology of Rome (which covered the beginning of Rome to when Constantine was emperor).  I also finished my Sequential art classes with my last elective which was Constructive Human Anatomy.  I have learned a lot from this class and am very glad I picked it as my last elective.

Over the last four weeks we did a project in which we had a partner, and lucky for my I had the awesome Heidi Black as my partner.  It was awesome working with her as we both had a very similar work ethic, I feel.  We were given a model and in class put on muscles of the back, front and upper arms.  We met up many days to do the lower arms, and whole legs, and finished a week ahead of the due date of the project.  As Reference, on the picture below I did the side that is further away from my foot (the left).


That was one project, the final consisted of two parts that each student did on our own.  We started this around 7 weeks ago.  One half was building an ecroche based off of a pose a model did for us.  We ech had our own pose that we came up with for the model to do.  Then we built an armature, much like for a maquette, then built up primitive (simplified) forms of the skull, ribcage, and hips, then added the bones of the arms and legs, then the muscles of the body (minus hands, head, and feet).

Muscles:





The other half of our final was to draw all three stages in 5 angles, as well as a 3-quarter down-shot.  It felt odd, but nice returning to good old pencil again.  I had forgotten how much I used to like to work with pencil and am glad I got to again for this.
