Semester 1 - week 12 - Muscular structure 2




Some more drawings that are showing the muscle structure, and the proportion of a muscular body type.
The first drawing is made with orange conte crayon, and it is showing how the back muscles look when they are contracted.  This is why I have used this medium because it offers the possibility to work fast and to obtain strong lines and contrasts which in this case is ideal. I have exaggerated some body parts for example the rib cage to emphasize the idea that  that part has some worked muscles.
In the second drawing the position is almost the same as in the first drawing but the muscles are relaxed so I didn't use such a powerful contrast and I also tried to use more tonal values.
The third one is from the front and it has some muscles contracted which I have accentuated more. I wanted to show the leg muscles and I have exaggerated the left leg more to show how it is positioned and that is contracted. The focal point is the left part of the body mostly on the arm and on the upper leg. In this one there is more negative space than in the other ones and this is helping with the silhouette.
