Hey yea I love you and can you do me a favor and just do like a really quick thing on how to draw like satyr legs. I want to draw my boy but I can’t draw he leggies. You ain’t gotta but I would love you even more. Thank you sm 🖤💜💙💚💛❤️💟💓💗💖💔❣️💕💘💞💝🎀
BEFORE ANYTHING: This is how I personally do this. Other artists will have other ways, other styles and other references, so expand your horizon looking up to them too!
BEFORE ANYTHING²: I’ll have to trust you with the basic anatomy understanding!
Those are human legs doing things human legs do, and that’s on the last one is a suggestion of the bones, aint anatomically correct but i just need y’all to visualize it.
This is anthropomorphic leggy! Also with bones suggestions! did you see the catch? no? (I used deer legs as references!)
See now? With luck we’re mammals so we sorta have the same bones in different ways, and use it as advantage!
In fantastic anatomy, there’s not much rules because, well, it’s not real so there’s no book teaching you how to properly draw those. like centaurs, they have two toraxic boxes! 4 LUNGS??? 2 STOMACHES? Doesn’t matter, does it? it’s belivable, and it’s what matter!
I repeat: It’s only belivable, and it’s what matter!
Also the muscles will work sorta on the same way (see the blobs). On the satyr ones, the purples are smaller, just as the brigh blue one, since this part is smaller than the thighs and feet, meanwhile it’s usually longer on humans!
It’s more about understanding the shape then drawing the leg over it, because this makes you understand how it was supposed to move even you don’t have a real anatomy satyr leg in front of you, or dunno, octapus merman, go wild my buddy!
This is how i usually doodle them before even getting the anatomy right, usually i just need the idea of the leg before actually starting
GET. YO. FRIGGING. REFERENCES.
yES YOU HEARD ME RIGHT. References always. Disney has a lot of stuff free for you to look at, and fantasy is a common theme, there’s thousands of other tutorials and artists that also do this, and it’s good to make sure you saw at least 3 or 4 more, never hurts learning more about what you want to make A++!
With reference, you’re not tied only to deer legs, but dogs, elephants, crocodiles, birds, snakes?, anything! It’s really important!
