Description Well, that took a while to put up XD But yes, here's my anatomy tutorial (*off-key fanfare*). It's leaning more towards a How-To in anime style than anything realistic but then...that's what I draw. I just hope it can help people anyway XD;;

If there's something missing or you have other questions about it, just comment away and I'll answer what I can xD; ^^



By the way, I'm well aware that there's a profile there in the Heads section, without any accompanying text. I actually forgot to remove it, because I couldn't think of anything to put there. Rest assured though, profiles will be covered in my next tutorial, clothing and hair XD (Because it actually has a lot to do with hair positioning *snickers*)

More detail on How-To in expressions will also be in it (I know I kinda skipped it here XD; ) as will a mini-tutorial on females.

Ooo, must favorite this for future reference! I really like your tips on how to do hands and feet. Those are definitely the parts I have the most trouble with, in addition to general posing dynamics. Thanks for the tutorial!

I told you this would come out very nice. You did a very good job explaining as you moved step-by-step, which is a vital part to making a tutorial. Hope to see another from you soon. :]

Oh, one thing though. You may want to add that this is a stylized anatomy tutorial as it is based off of your style and not the actual anatomy of realism.

This is great XD I never really get normal anatomy tutorials (they're just too complex and skippy), so yours is great XD Maybe it'll help me draw better at least some XD Now I just gotta get my printer working, working with 3 inches of room at my computer would be hard.

Well, it's not quite a `Cedarseed tutorial, but it's good!

Cedarseed tutorials related to anatomy:

The only one of the above I've ever used is the first, but based on that and her animal and bird tutorials, I am sure that the others are very good too.


I've found ~peganthyrus 's hand tutorial helpful too: [link]
