這週我們要探討的是下腿
這裡有上週的圖片
先來補充一下
我們有下腿和下腿的圖片
在Zoom Q&A中我們補充了一些圖片
我會補充下腿和其他部分
首先是下腿
然後是下腿
然後再補充下腿和下腿的圖片
先來做一個簡介
讓我們回到下腿的整個概念
從旁邊可以看到下腿的形狀
這就是下腿的肌肉
然後我們會連接到下腿的旁邊
這就是下腿的形狀
或是像冰淇淋一樣的形狀
然後在下腿的旁邊
我們可以看到下腿的形狀
我們可以說這是一個薄餅
這是下腿的形狀
然後這是圓形的形狀
我們可以把下腿的圖片留著
這樣我們可以看到前腿的形狀
這就是下腿的形狀
上腿的形狀
不然我們可以把它當成一個過程提醒
這是一個開始
這樣我們可以看到
一些東西正在建造
下腿的肌肉
這是很重要的
我們可以看到
上腿的形狀
這樣就完成了
我們來看看下腿的形狀
下腿的形狀
我們需要最大的肌肉
我們可以做到
我們需要最大的肌肉
像這樣
下腿的肌肉
接下來再看下腿的形狀
下腿的形狀
像這樣
下腿的形狀
This was the vastus medialis
This was the sartorius
Down to the tibia
This was the opening in the hamstring
Your two tendons going to the tibia and fibula
And then on this side, let's do the same
Sometimes if you want to, you can use instead of one big egg, you can use two
So like one egg here
And this might help you work through the gesture a bit more
And if you like using a second egg
Let's start it right at the bottom of the box
Which you can kind of see right here
And that would be stretching this leg
This leg is pulled out in a way
So you kind of line up the shape in the same way
But here I'm going to give it more of an S-curve
And I'm not adding structural fat yet
So we're going to have it
Kind of resemble more so just the muscle shape
And then when it's
Completed, it's wrapped
It's going to come out
And over to the
Real tibia tract
And then we have the shape
This is a big S-curve
It wraps with the muscle under
And then just kind of
Blends in with that
You can divide the shape up the same way
From the top of the sacrum
Find that
Cleus medius
And here go forward
Up over
The same thing when it ends
When you get to the
Outside of that
And then we could have a little bit of that
Tensor here coming down
And that would just be
Also kind of fusing into the big
Fat tract
Over
The vastus lateralis
And so we always put a bit of a
Half tone or a pinch there
Because of how much it influences that shape
So just be careful
That you don't see more than what's there
Sometimes we pull
Because this feels split up
Think that this is one muscle
And then this is one muscle
It's not, it's just that it looks like two separate things
Because this tract
Pinches it in a way that
Causes it to feel separate
So that's what's happening there
And then hamstrings
Are also going to be
Underneath the
I think with the shoulder
Of the maximus
Just clean up some of this
Side view
The side view same thing
Maybe here you could use the two egg idea
Or
Cashew shape would be good
Cashew shape meaning
Kind of getting the shape of the maximus
Going two directions
And then that's going to go here
Into the
The wrench
I'm just kind of ending that line
I don't see the sacrum
But I can kind of guess where it would be
So I'm going to make my hip this way
Go across
This is my pizza shape
The gluteus medius
And then back down
And that's grabbing
Retrocanter
So just the vena femur
This is the little space
For you to get your upside down ice cream cone
Which is the
Surface
And then this also
Goes into that
What we talked about
Last week
So astus laparalis is this one
Rectus femoris is this one
Maybe you would see
A little bit of the sartorius
Going to the other side
So that would be overlapping
To the inside of the body
Hamstrings are straighter
That's your bicep
Essentially of the leg
And then that one is
More or less done
So that gives us some context
Just the ideas that we've covered
In other lectures
And how they would all look
In this one
So let's go ahead and take a look at the lower leg
This will be a little bit easier
Just because we've done a lot of the
Hard work with the heavy lifting
But we are going to keep it to the same
Workflow
So in the lower leg you can see three shapes
Let's say
I want to learn an area
And if I need three shapes
Or three muscle shapes
That's really it
One of them
Is going to be the calf
Another
Is I'm going to put a uniform shape
On the front of the leg
That are your extensors
These are by the way flexors
They also just kind of constantly
Hold a tension in your
The back of your leg
And heel
And then I'm going to show something
That is basically a transition
Into the foot
Which is a tendon ramp
It's another shape that I use
It just happens here not to be
Muscle in the same way
That other shapes are
So let's go in order
Let's start with our calves
And then work down to the ramp
So from the back
Is the easiest place to see the calves
What kind of landmarks
Do I need for the calves
We need our fibula
We need to have your
H which is the end of the
Hamstrings
And then this is the crease
Of the back of the leg
We need to be able to identify
The placement of the ankle
We have our inside to outside
Remember if you have a hard time
Placing the ankle
You could divide this into thirds
It's usually
Medial ankle is the first one
Lateral is the second
And then the remaining space
Is your foot
You could break that up
What's really important for this muscle
Is that I'm able to find the heel block
So this would be
Your calcaneus bone
Which is just your heel
The big bone that sticks out the back
So the ankle
Is grabbing onto the structure
Of the tarsus
Which is the bones in your foot
And so this side
Would be the tibia
This side is the fibula
But we're going to get a lot of
Okay so let's start
With just one big shape
Let's make this an egg
That was just a big egg shape
And I'm going to
Just start
I'm going to feed it into that little space
Even if it's just a bit of an overlap
And then bring it down about
Two thirds
Something like that
I think this is a challenging area
Because the perspective is so narrow
That it's hard a lot of the times
To get something that looks good
With like a box or a cylinder
But sometimes I just create the shapes
And then overlap them together
Okay
So that is the calves
Now if we were to see the foot
In a different position
Like here the foot is raising
So the heel is picked up off the ground
That means that this is working
So part of the job for this muscle
Is that it's ending with a tendon
Excuse me
Here's a common tendon
This could be one of our shapes
We have one
Two
And I'm going to divide the inside
So this is your Achilles tendon
You guys know Achilles
The warrior that was
Almost invulnerable
Because he was dipped into
The magic river by someone
And they held him here
So by holding him at that tendon
They had their
Fingers covering it
And it didn't get covered
By the water like the rest of his body
So this is a weak point
So it's a really important area
You know stories are just a way
To give a reference to all things
That maybe we do or don't understand
Explain them
You also see this cut in horror movies
Monsters always try to get this
And they're both kind of similar
In the sense that they're explaining
A real vulnerable part of our body
But if this is
Ruptured in any way
We can't walk
So to help the Achilles
Quality
If you want you can make
You could give this even more
Of maybe a warrior type design
By giving it a bit of a
Like a sword shape
Maybe if you want a better
Iconic shape to remember
By way of creating a muscle
Give this a little sword shape
So that it feels like it's connecting
To the muscle above
Now going back to
What I was saying
That's the part
Now you know the position
To be clear
It connects the back of the
Calcaneus or the top of the calcaneus
And then the muscle attaches
A couple areas
One of the muscles in your calves
Attaches at the fibula
Then the other one
Attaches to the back of your knee
And that's why this little window
Or space is so important
Is that it has to get through that
To the femur
So part of position also is gesture
So this would be more of a stretch shape
Like I was saying over here
If the ankle lifts up
This muscle is going to
Splash
So we're thinking right
These are the same basic size
It's just that in this scenario
Over here
The muscle has flexed
And as a consequence of flexing
By attaching to the knee and to the ankle
It's been able to pull this ankle
Up a little bit
Or I'm sorry
The heel up a little bit higher
So now this is kind of
Up off the ground
So crucial to how we walk
Or just how we stay upright
So this is
Squashing
Getting more of a C-curve
This is a bit more relaxed
In terms of elongated shape
Or perhaps an S-curve
The last is the perspective
And part of that we can find
By looking at the parts inside
So for both of these
We have two
The shape
And then the dagger or the knife
But there's one more shape in your
Let's give it a color
Do the same thing
On the other side
So we have something
Identified there
So the calf is two muscles
One on top of the other
So from the fibula
I'm gonna draw this
Kind of as if it's see-through
You have one muscle
That goes in a diagonal
Across the body
Called your soleus
And this one's oftentimes
Harder to see from the back
Because it's a little bit smaller
So your soleus is like this
It might also end up being
A little bit lower
But it attaches under the tendon
So that sword that you created
It goes on the underside
But without
The other muscle that's there
This one would never attack
So now let's
Color that back in up here
Now this one that I'm trying to draw right now
This one is called your gastrocnemius
As flexor
And that one
Attaches to the back of your femur
In order to do so
It has to get to the femur
By way of this opening
So that kind of hollow
Or pocket that you can feel
Behind your knee
Or between your hamstrings
Is an important one
Because that's where this muscle ends
And it can be seen
To have a kind of separation
If you do a real close study
I draw on this one
It has two little fingers
At the top
One of each
On each side
It is grabbing onto the back of the femur
Remember we described the femur
As kind of like this bow tie
Or spool shape
And then these
Wrap onto each side
And that's how it will latch onto that bone
This here again
Being the flexor
So in terms of
The shapes that I'm seeing
We have gastrocnemius now
That's one
That's this more prominent shape
It has the
Split or looks like a triangle
At the bottom
And that's the muscle that creates the tendon
Or the tendon would be connected to
The soleus
Is just a bit harder to see
But it would in this case be under
Or in front
Of the gastrocnemius
That would be kind of
Not as visible here
Those are the three
And those are going to be
Most of your lower leg
From most views
Because again this is like the
We talked about the discrepancy
In width
From the front of the leg
To the upper leg
And back of the leg
We described that the front of the leg
Is wider
The lower leg
Back of the lower leg
This is a bigger muscle group
Than anything that's on the front
So even when you're dealing with
The front of the leg
The contour or the width of that leg
Is still the back
I know that's kind of a head
Or a screw for most people
But
It's a really helpful
Idea to keep in mind
So that you don't overdo the legs
But that would be done
That would be a completed leg drawing
From the back and notice how
We've maintained rhythm and asymmetry
All the way down
That idea of gesture is present
Even in
All of the muscles
So this here
It's one thing to keep in mind
Is that even your calf is high to low
This muscle itself is higher on the outside
Lower on the inside
And then that's
Offset with your ankle
Because your inside ankle is higher on the inside
Lower on the outside
Okay let's put this in another view
Let's do this same shape
Up on the front
And we're going to work with
Leave this here so that you can still see it
And I'm going to build it up
A little bit more slowly
So we're going to use this orange color
Which represents the soleus
Soleus starts from here
So it's on the back
So I'm not going to cover the bone
And it would start like this
It's going to go down
Nothing really covers the
Tibia too much
So this is a plane
And that gray area is mostly vacant
And the soleus
Is going to be continuing over here
And from the front view
It looks to me more triangular
So you can even put in like a little triangle
If that helps you remember it
But do notice that it's offset
So that's soleus
Then gastrocnemius
Remember that goes higher
So that's going behind the knee
This one starts much lower
So this here
Is going to be the
Larger calf that's on top
This is the one again
That's making the
Soleus tendon
So that's going
Going down here this way
And then we could do it
Kind of starting back here
Let's see if that bone
Is a little more prominent
So in this view you could start
Like I started with
The separate shapes
Just so you can see
A different perspective on how the muscles build
But what I would recommend
When you're doing your homework
Or working with this area
Is just to treat it as one uniform shape
Just like I did here
So just this single shape
I think is the best way to try to use this muscle
Most of the time
Commonly we would see the
Gastrocnemius on this side
But I think because it's turned away
It just doesn't have the same
We don't have as well
As good a view of it
So there's our calf
The other shape that we're going to have in here is
Extensor tendons
And when I draw those
So now that
I'm looking at this one
So let's say that the calf is
This is just one shape
Now the extensor tendons
The yellow
So you have a big egg
That kind of sits off the side of your tibia
And attaches down at an angle
Without really ever covering
The shaft of the tibia
And this gives us a couple shapes
So it gives us one here
And I just would caution
Everyone to be really careful
When adding this
Because you can all feel your shin
And you know that it's a plane
That doesn't have a lot of mass to it
It's mostly just a sharp plane
And sometimes when I see people
Adding these shapes specifically
They tend to get really really built
And so it kind of looks like
The front of someone's leg is exploding
But what I'm trying to get you to see here
Is that this is a muscle group
That sits over the bone
So this is the bone
And then behind that bone of the tibia
Is the calf
In this kind of broadening
Because everything here is still
Thin to thick
From front to back
Is what we have on our lower leg
And the calves is flexing
These muscles
So this is a group
I'm summarizing this as a group
They're extensors
So this
They run the gamut from muscles
That would maintain the arch of your foot
Extend your toes
You know
Extend your big toe
Or smaller toes
But it's a good introductory shape
To start to get familiar
With the mechanics of
The lower leg and foot
So that would be our second shape
We have one for the calf
Two for the extensor
And then because I don't want anyone
Isolating a muscle to a part
I want you to make a ramp
From the bottom of this one
That just goes down and into the foot
And I'm going to draw it here
As like an arrow
And this is why
The front of your ankle
Or the transition
From the front of your leg into your foot
Is curved and fluid
Because all of these tendons
From the extensors
Get cinched down
By what's called a retinaculum
Which is like a bracelet
Or an anklet in this case
And so they hold
All of these tendons down
And so it creates this smooth curvature
That just then flows out into your toes
And that would be done
So how can I double check
Well I would come up and say
Are all the things that I made on the
Leg and the back consistent here
And the answer is yeah
So if I do the abductors
They're higher as a curve to the adductors
Abductors are higher as a curve
To the quadriceps
Down, sartorius
Half
Outside to the inside
And then heel
So every muscle
Is in some kind of asymmetrical relationship
To the next
Just like our gestures
From the very first week
And that's why we did gestures in the first week
So you'd be sensitized to the way
Anatomy actually works
This is a massive, massive
Secret
To kind of developing
Consistent feeling of realism
Regardless of if it's
Photorealism or just a
Realism and character design
For cartoons
It's just this
Understanding and use
Of the asymmetry
So that one's done
We have our one, two, three shapes
Now let's
See from the front, the back
Let's also do the outside
So you can see all the same
So just some
Preliminary work
To set it up
Here's the tendon
Here's the patella
This is the fibula
This is the tibia
Inches down would be the tuberosity
Of the tibia
The fibula is very straight
Going down to the second third
Here
From the back view
The heel block
Can look like a box or a cylinder
Here's the design of the foot
I hadn't planned to go over the foot
But maybe I'll post a couple videos
That just give you the basics of it
If anybody wants to learn it
And so first thing
Let's design our calf
I'm going to do the same thing
As I did on this front view
I'm going to go through them as individual shapes
So that you'll remember what they are
But again when I draw it
You should follow the same process
Start with the biggest shape or your part
Position it
So that it has a gesture
Relative to the beginning and end
Where it connects
Lastly make sure that you're working
To get its perspective
Most of the perspective here
I've done with overlaps
This is in front of this
The T overlap is what's helping me
To set it up
First is the soleus
If we look at that from the side
The leg looks more like a sandwich
The soleus goes here
Goes from the fibula
You have to imagine this
Going diagonally across
The lower leg
To the other side
And then ends right here
Over that
Is the gastrocnemius
That goes higher
To the back of the knee
It's grabbing onto the back of that bone
I'm showing that it's moving there
With the overlap
It comes down
It's a little bit higher than the soleus
And then this is what's going to create
The tendon
Now if the heel were lifted
I would just squash that shape
Just like I did here
Now let's create our tendon
Tendon is going to be that sword
And it's
Down to the
Heel
And another area you could look
Usually the Achilles tendon
Is pretty noticeable
Sometimes there can be a little shadow
In the space of the tendon there
So that's done
So I would say
In terms of our remembering an area
This is still just one for me though
Because I could have
Also just done our shape
And then tendon
So that's one shape
Second shape that we're going to see
From the side would be
Sensors
The green one
Let's grab it
Let's move the same shape over
So I'm kind of thinking
Here
Make an egg
The only thing I don't want to have happen
And why I'm showing this one at all
Is I don't want
You have to avoid anything that looks too buff
For the lower leg
Or else this is going to look like it's broken
We could fill that in
And then that becomes
The tendon rank which is the third shape
And that's what's giving us
This curve design
Since you're
You're going to have to indicate
At least somehow this week
What I would do is
Just create triangles
If it's a profile
You can keep a triangle that's longer
If it's a front view
You can keep a triangle that's
Less wide
Sometimes I'll put a little
Not sure where the big toe is
So it can be a really simple
Indication
You want to have something there
So you don't just have
Legs without feet
And then this would be
If you have a hard time
Getting the proportion
The general rule is that
The height of the lower leg
You can find that height
And just kind of take
Where the halfway would be
From here
If you create a perfect box
From there
That should lead you to the length of the foot
So
There's also
Later on a more developed
Picture of this
Will fill in more muscles
Expanding on the extensor group
I don't think that's something that you have to do
But one example of that would be that
On the outside of your leg
You have a muscle called the fibularis
And that sits right on top of the fibula
It would be part of your extensor group
This muscle
Looks like a really long skinny eight
Just to give you an idea
Of the kinds of things
You'd be finding in here
If you were to break up the extensors
The long skinny eight
The same thing as the soleus
Or the calf muscle
In terms of the design
It's layered
So the muscles are stacking
This top one's on the lower one
And then this creates a tendon
That hooks under your ankle
So it hooks under there
And that re-directs it
And shoots it to the middle of your foot
And that's what keeps your foot arched
Because this is almost always
Kind of in a constant tension
And without that arch
It's pretty uncomfortable for us
Other things
That I want to look for here
In terms of the asymmetry
Let's double check our big picture again
Maximus is high
To the quadriceps
Which are slightly lower
Quadriceps are high
To the hamstring
Which is slightly lower
To the knee
To the calf
To the extensors
All the way down
So that would be successful
But if I can say that I've got my part
The positions, the perspective
And it results in this
Overall uniform
Feeling of rhythm and flow
Returns us back to our first week
In terms of the designs
That were really important to us
That is the most important
End result that we're looking for
So that's it
This week's a little bit easier
And
It's a bit of a break in a sense
Because we start the arms next
Which are way more intimidating
And confusing
So if you have questions
When you're looking at this
Write them down
And we can go over them at the Zoom Q&A
Or if you want to fill in other views
Maybe we'll leave that
So that we can do that together
In our Q&A session
So hopefully this makes sense
So the leg is a total
Upper leg, three shapes
Hip, three shapes
Lower leg, three shapes
