Tutorial 151 - Pelvis-Torso Relationship
🕑 Added 2016-06-07 08:13:18 +0000 UTCHere's a simple visual showing a few basic relationships between the simplified masses of the pelvis and torso.
From profile, we can see that if simplified into cuboids, the pelvis tilts forwards and the torso tilts backwards. These angles vary from person to person, sometimes drastically.
From the front, starting at the space between the two masses, the moving vertically up the torso, the shape tapers out to the maximum width and then tapers in to the top of the shape.
The pelvis follows the same rhythm, moving down from the navel area, tapering out and then in again.
Note, we can see this rhythm is almost inverted on the skin surface level. Moving up from the navel the torso broadens to the shoulders. Again, from the navel moving down, the waist broadens to the femur (top of the leg).
