Expert drawing instructor and storyboard artist Tom Fox knows exactly how to capture the figure in poses that are both dynamic and true to human anatomy. The book details the central figure drawing elements and techniques that are essential to every artist of every skill level. From understanding the XYZ axis and basic skeleton, to thinking in 3D space and creating mannequins of all levels of detail, the book deals with everything the reader needs to know before moving on to the figure itself. Tom presents in step by step details exactly how to add the muscles and depict truly believable poses.

Every part of the body is presented in detail, with easy to follow breakdowns of the torso, arms, and legs, and the often tricky head, hands, and feet. The author also shares insightful, game changing anatomy tips, many learned from years of working for major clients in the entertainment industry and teaching others to draw the human figure, both in person and online. This combination of experiences and skills make Tom an outstanding author of this must have book for artists in all areas of figure drawing.

  • Aurore Otimi

    Beaucoup d'explications sur la construction d'un squelette, plus que les muscles ou comment ajouter de la chair et des plis sur le corps. Il n'y a pas beaucoup d'explications sur le visage et les cheveux non plus (1 ou 2 pages). Les structures exemples sont très

  • Emily

    En ouvrant ce livre, j'ai été très choquée par les erreurs de proportions, de perspective et les traits particulièrement hésitants de tous les dessins proposés en exemple. C'est vraiment laid, d'autant que les mains et pieds sont "intentionnellement" (d'après l'auteur)

    I’ve been after something like this for ages. I do comic book style art so anatomy can either make or break an entire picture. I have plenty of anatomy books, and plenty of comic art books which are too centred on recreating certain iconic poses with not much else, and so because I’ve been making a lot of progress with my art using 3dTotal books I figured the anatomy book would be worth a shot. Only just received it today but the information is presented in a very understandable way and the pictures/diagrams and explanations together will be perfect for me to practice. Will it turn me into a great artist? Can a book EVER do that? Will I be able to understand how anatomy works/looks better in order for me to apply it in my art? Yes, I’ll understand it and if my work doesn’t get better then it’s down to me and not the book. Very happy with this, 3dTotal keeping up the consistently good publishing, will not hesitate to recommend

    The detail that’s included is fantastic. Highly recommended.

    This is the best anatomy book I’ve ever read. Perfect for learning (at all levels) about how to construct the human body. Highly recommended for everyone!

  • Mary

    I love how detailed the information in the book is and how simple the explanations are. For someone who barely understands human anatomy, it's a great book to start with!

    El libro está repleto de inconsistencias y en cada página se contradice.Los dibujos están mal hechos, en ocasiones no es clara la forma y eso para un libro de anatomía es importante. En la mayoría de los casos trata de defenderse diciendo que menos es más pero si estás escribiendo un libro sobre anatomía, lo menos que podrías hacer es tomarte el tiempo de detallar tus esquemas. Aunque este libro es único en donde trata de simplificar la complejidad del lenguaje anatómico, no es un libro para principiantes en lo más mínimo. Es peligrosamente engañoso.EDIT: Le di una segunda oportunidad al libro debido a que aunque sigo pensando que los diagramas pueden estar mejor, es un libro que no vas a poder copiar y pensar que vas a aprender anatomía. Entendí que el libro te obliga a pensar en la forma geométrica, en tu interpretación de la forma. Te obliga a interpretar e imaginar la forma simplificada para colocarla en el espacio tridimensional. Cosa que otros libros de anatomía no hacen. No lo considero un libro de referencia por ser un libro lleno de sketches, sino un libro de estudio con el cual puedo jugar con formas simples que imiten la anatomía.Sigo pensando que este libro NO es un libro para principiantes en el tema.
