Anatomy Tutorial by Moumou

Don't worry non-French speaker, I'll translate it after few explanations in French first

..............

Vidéo exemple sur YOUTUBE (oh, y'a un gars à poil au cas où ça choque des gens) : [link]

Bon, tout est dit dans le tuto, j'espère que ça pourra en aider certains. J'ai remarqué que cet endroit grouillait de supers idées et de tutos mais en Français, y'en a pas des masses, donc je répare cette petite injustice.
En plus c'est une petite vengence personnelle auprès des gens qui pensent que, comme nous faisons du digital art, et bien, on ne sait pas dessiner, c'est l'ordi qui fait tout et c'est trop facile.
Et ce à quoi je répond : vous vous gourrez complètement bande de nioufs ! C'est du dessin à part entière, l'ordi ne fait rien de plus que ce qu'on lui demande à la force du stylet comme la peinture ne fait rien d'autre que ce que le pinceau fait et tout "digital artist" a d'abord tenu un crayon avant le stylet.

Donc voilà ce que j'ai en tête quand je dessine (sans modèle sinon c'est différent)...

Engliiish :

Okay, I owe you a little explanation. I noticed that this place was swarming with great ideas and tutorial but in French, not that much, so I fix this small injustice.
Moreover it is a little personal revenge from people who think that since we're doing digital art, we can not draw, it's the computer that does everything and it's too easy.
And what I replied: you've completely mistaken ! It is actually drawing, the computer does nothing more than what it is asked as the paint does nothing other than what the brush asks. Every"digital artist" was first a traditional one.

So, here's a quick translation :

Every step, I use a new layer...

1rst Step : Let's work on some basic anatomy. The body has a bulb shape moreover, male chest is wider than for women. On the contrary, the pelvis is wider for women when it appears more elongated for men (keep that in mind, it's important when you're building the skeleton of your character).

2nd step : We will quickly build the silhouette that will then enable us to locate the muscles.
You can also notice that the "skeleton" that I just spoke about is used to see the proportions on the body (as for hips or the bottom of the chest).
Then it's a matter of practice and taste. The variations in the proportions will change the middle part of the character.

Last step : details ... basically, you base your design on the "silhouette" we just finished, while adding curves and giving it a more human side.
This is where anatomy becomes more precise.

For men, the flank overflows on the top side toward the outside of the iliac bone (although it inward to the woman). The thighs are one of the most difficult because of the complexity of the muscles (look precisely to the drawing).

Okaaay now you can draw me a sexy calendar... or at least show me your results xD
