Morpho: Fat and Skin Folds: Anatomy for Artists

Ideal for artists , interested in figure study . But the book is too small

Must have book for those who want to learn about anatomy. Very helpful. Recommended the entire series.

I like this book a lot, I bought it specifically so I could learn to draw my body type as well as other characters and my own characters. Unfortunately, the majority of the people in this book are huge, a lot bigger than myself and a lot of those characters so it's a bit difficult to figure out how to size down the body type itself.I really enjoy morpho and his art books a lot, I hope he can bring out more for varying bodies.

The only bad thing about this book is that it took a long time to arrive, delayed indefinitely until I wasn't sure it would ever come! This wasn't a huge surprise however as I had searched the whole internet for this book and it wasn't possible to get it delivered to the UK.Eventually it got here though, and it's an excellent little guide to a lot of things that artists are never taught about anatomy: how fat and skin fall and sit on the human body, a weird oversight given most humans have fat in some way or another. An ideal resource for artists who want to represent how people actually look. The book is also very plain and matter-of-fact without any judgement about what bodies are better or anything, which is refreshing.

Exactly what I was looking for, shame there are so few books like that.Very accessible, you can learn from it regardless of your level, explanations are clear and very helpful.Bonus: it's very small and portable, which I was surprised by because my other books like that are very large and it can be annoying.

It's a really useful addition to any artist's reference book collection.The only reason I am giving just 4 stars is the size. The book is tiny so some of the drawings are hard to see.

I got myself into a rut of drawing the same shaped people over and over again. This book gave me inspiration and help to progress. Fantastic little book to keep handy by my desk too.
