Studies Photo-set: The Torso (front)
🕑 Added 2021-03-28 10:01:01 +0000 UTCWelcome to our second Studies photo-set, this week focusing on front of the torso - we've selected a variety of close ups of models with significantly different body shapes, presented both as straight up rotations and varied poses to demonstrate the potential articulations of the ribcage and pelvis, to see the tension of the core muscles and the behaviour of the soft forms of the torso. These photos are cropped from the original hi-res photo files, allowing you to see the body in more detail than you would in our full-figure sets and providing a resource from which you can observe the varied articulations of the body. By making studios from these close ups you'll be able to gain a greater insight into the forms that underpin the human figure. Lance's tutorial videos and blogs will help to set these images in context, so we recommend looking over those resources to support your drawings.
