(26,710 posts)Ohhh, did I drag through one post College anatomy course, or maaaybe it was in college. While i had several life drawing classes in college not sure I had anatomy. Maybe I avoided it as an elective.
But then there was this after college course taught by this guy who developed this 3D mostly skeletal model. I say semi bc he added some subtle additional features.
But the idea was to use clay to model muscles, and attach them to this form. Thus building up musculature plus perhaps other certain features

His name is Jon Zahourek.
his site is the Maniken sysyem,
Anatomy in Clay.
There are several model now of the human form in different positions. They are around ? 2 1/2 ft tall. Plus, now: a shoulder; the hips, legs & feet; and a horse.
Now back then in the ? 80's i don't remember the model he showed us being that tall. And it was only one at the time. He did have the horse, but we didn't see it.
He made anatomy fairly interesting to me. Before him, it was it was nearly a snoozefest! 😑 So if you could get me interested- that's really saying something! 😄👍
