## Description

The Complete Guide to Anatomy for Artists & Illustrators [Bammes, Gottfried] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Complete Guide to Anatomy for Artists & Illustrators

Review: Great pictures, really detailed - I own quite a few anatomy books (Morpho, Michael Hampton, Stonehouse's Anatomy), but Bammes is particularly great because he goes into detail of the anatomy at multiple angles, which is exactly what you want as an artist. In the pictures I've tried to demonstrate the degree of detail Bammes goes into, for example, the muscles of the lower leg, not only from front, back, left and right but also inside and outside when flexed. I also find his cross-hatched illustrations to be really charming - his simplifies what you see into geometric shapes, which is very helpful because in photos the bumps are not obvious or whatever. But the geometric ideal is great because it helps you identify the main bumpy landmarks, which you can then easily cross-reference with the muscle next to it. (For those of you who have watched the popular Proko videoes on anatomy you can see how Bammes has be been a great influence on Proko's work.) Other than that, I find his text a but extensive. Good material, but it puts me to sleep, so I use Bammes mainly as a reference book. His black and white photographs also are very old school, but as a guide for anatomy for drawing, Bammes' diagrams are top notch and I would recommend it to anyone very serious about learning anatomy for drawing. It's a quite an investment, but really worth it.
Review: The Best book for Anatomy Study! - Throughout the course of my life, I had 3 books on Human Anatomy for Artists. This one I consider the best because it covers all the aspects of understanding how the figure works and even more in-depth study, that I even didn't know was possible to find in the book for Artists.
