In fact, the necessity for anatomical knowledge in character design is far beyond that of the traditional arts. The digital artist must not only know human anatomy to model the figure, but he must also have a thorough understanding of the how the joints articulate and how the body deforms. Sadly, there are few opportunities for students and professionals in the digital arts to receive structured training in traditional artistic anatomy. This course is designed to bring the anatomy lessons from the traditional academies to the professional digital artist. Over seven lectures, the course provides an intensive introduction to artistic anatomy and a method for continuing study beyond the classroom. The course notes follow the lecture order and cover the body starting from the torso and moving toward the extremities. The notes for each lecture begin with plates covering the musculature. The plates are followed by a description of the bony landmarks and major surface forms of the region. The notes continue with lecture images that illustrate the area being investigated. Space is left beside each image to annotate and take notes during lecture. Finally, each lecture closes with a practical exercise designed to help the artist apply the anatomical principles being investigated. “Hundreds of people talk for one who can think, but thousands think for one who can see.” – John Ruskin Ecorche drawing over digital sculpture.

I will be well pleased if you avoid monstrous things, like long legs with short torsos, and narrow chests with long arms. “ -Leonardo Da Vinci “The pose, proportion and construction of the figure should receive our first attention, and placed to a hair’s breadth. before the parts themselves are analysed” -John Vanderpoel Proper proportion is the starting point for building any well constructed figure. When constructing a realistic human figure proportions are even more important. You can produce a figure with fine musculature but without accurate proportions it will appear grossly incorrect, even to the casual viewer. To simplify the assessment of proportion when constructing a figure reference systems are helpful. For centuries artists have recorded their own concept of proportion, usually reflecting the tastes of the time. One of the most accurate and detailed of these canons is that of Dr. Paul Richer. Orignally published in his book Anatomie Artistique, it has become a standard reference for artist. Lecture 1: Proportion and Skeleton Plates by [Richer1890] The following plates show Richer’s canon of proportions for the human figure. The canon is based on the 7 1/2 head figure. In addition to dividing the figure vertically into head lengths, the plates present information showing the useful distances between bony landmarks and also body parts of equal length. It is helpful for the artist to internalise these proportions
