How To Draw Legs
oday we'll show you how to draw legs.
When drawing legs, acquaint yourself with the anatomy before you begin.
Study
how the bones are joined and how the muscles attach to them and you
will be able to visualize the structure easily as you draw.
Begin
by sketching the leg in its largest, simplest shapes. It may be helpful
to think of the leg as two pieces which divide at the kneecap with
muscles extending outward on either side as shown here.
When the major forms are blocked in accurately, erase your guidelines and finalize the form in terms of line. Add lines that indicate the placement of the kneecap, thigh, and calf muscle as well.
Begin
to shade your leg, keeping in mind that the overall form is
cylindrical, and so will have shading on either side and highlight on
the center.
Blend the shaded tones together to smooth the gradations, and pick out highlights where necessary.
