Hey everyone, Sinix here.
It's time for another episode of Anatomy Quick Tips,
the series that is here to give you some useful observations
and help you feel more comfortable with
drawing people from imagination.
Today, we'll be talking about arms
and also dont be alarmed but
this all-arm video puts us near the end of this series,
only two more videos remain
regardless for now let's just focus on these upper appendages
This probably wont be the funniest video in this series or anything
but it will be definitely be the most humourous
so roll up your sleeves and lets get to work
starting out with structure
weve alreday covered both shoulders and hands
in other videos
so we just need to make sure we can bridge these things together
im sketching a quick front side and back few of the shoulders to start
seeing a shoulder and torso without the arm
always reminds me of a little lamb or something
but anyway were going to focus on
the skeletal breakdown of the arm first
of course we have a single major bone
in the upper arm
and two in the lower arm
connected at the elbow
but as i draw that, the first thing i actually want to point out
is that things arent in a perfect straight line
you can even take a moment
and try to see this yourself
just hold one arm out straight
and close your opposite eye
now do your best to look directly straight down
the barrel of that massive gun you call
your upper arm
if you line up your sight from shoulder to elbow
