Forearm Muscles Study
Created
June 9th, 2026
Last of the arm muscles which means I'm done with the first pass! This definitely feels like a section I need the second pass on. Lucy asked me why I draw questions marks next to all my studies when she thinks they look good and it's like... I feel very uncertain if I'm actually... drawing correctly. Like for starters with these I struggled with remembering the extensors and flexors and such, I could kind of figure out the ridge muscles but I didn't quite understand what muscle bodies I was looking at. Admittedly the forearm is a lot of information there's a lot of muscles there but still it feels like I'm just drawing lines I see. Which is another part of why is that I feel like I'm not understanding the forms. Every one of these I pretty much sketched completely differently from the others, and some made me feel I might've just been drawing the contours rather than the shape, I don't know why I feel like I struggle with breaking the body down into simple shapes. The wrists in particular I had difficulty with breaking down into that box shape because I was struggling to figure out the angle/perspective on them. I don't know I can only keep trying I guess.
