Course Description
If you are a beginner at drawing, this is the perfect drawing lesson for you. This is a step by step course on how to draw a human Torso. It's one of the most important parts of the body. If you are dreaming of the day of becoming a comic book artist , concept artist, or illustrator; this is a MUST. Learning the human figure is one of the most difficult things you can learn in all of drawing. This lesson breaks down the hardest part of the body....the Torso.
Let's go over what's in the course.
-Supplies
I show you the supplies that the lesson uses. The supplies, while important, are pretty easy to obtain. And I talk about affordable supplies that anyone can learn with.
-Torso Structure ( an easy way to draw it)
I go thought the general structure of the torso. By structure I mean the simple shapes that make up the portions of the torso. this is VITAL and will get you to draw nearly any torso correctly, even before anatomy.
-Torso Anatomy (front)
I walk you through the anatomy of the front portion of the torso. This can be very complex, but I break it down as simple as possible, so that you can replicate my thought process on your own. Learning How to Draw is based on learning in small digestible chunks.
-Torso Anatomy (back)
Let's Go through the back of the torso. There is a large amount of small, complicated muscles in the back that we have to break down. I try to group them easily for you to memorize so you will never be confused by them again after this lesson.
-Demonstration of Process
This is where I go through the entire process of thinking out how to draw the torso drawing, forming the shapes for it, thinking of the muscles on tip and posing the torsos. I take you through this with me. This is in many ways the most important lesson in the series. Take this one to heart and refer back to it in the future.
- Final Art Advice
So now that you learned to draw this incredibly complicated part of the human body, where do you go from here? how do you apply this knowledge. I don't want to just teach you and run; I want to give you the next step of your drawing roadmap. This is your story, so keep in mind your journey is only starting.
The drawing lesson is short and compacts so much information and learning into just a half hour. You can cut several years off your learning time just with this course. You'll draw comic book bodies with so much ease because you will know the core component. If you can be drawing the human body like a pro!

well I went in to this course with a good attitude. I've had many anatomy courses that are more detailed and intense and at the same price, seems to me this course is so basic that it doesnt have to be broken up into so many parts, its about an hour long, instructor draws and names the front and rear superficial muscles. this is more a short review than a class. I really feel that the courses are divided up to increase monetary sale. I say this because this course is sooooo quick and simple. I bought the arm anatomy video as well thinking the instructor would offer anatomy of the arm and how to draw it in different positions, and how to plot the muscles in deep space or in perspective, I might be expecting too much from the course and maybe for this I'm sorry.
