I'll help but I'm hoping that more people contribute to the thread. Most of the tutes I have are from /ic/ so I'll really just be repeating what was posted in prior threads.

To me who can't draw at all all these tutorials look like this:

>>1561080
this is as simple as it gets

the reason is because you don't see the process, you only see the images.

This somehow doesn't look good to me. It's so 90's airbrushy.

why not?

>>1561156
A lot of reasons.

There are a lot of reasons why not.

>>1561159
just for you

My mother just walked behind my my back.

>>1561145
am i the only one who thinks that this looks wrong?

>>1561166
there's a reason why 4chan is 18+ kid.

I don't live in the US. It's not considered to be a shame here if you live with your parents, it's actually pretty normal to stay with them until after university.

>>1561185
sure, it's 'normal' if you don't have any friends, faggot. no one to witness your pathetic life.

looks like....

you just got told

>>1561199
It looks like you've got some issues to project and strange reasoning skills. But let's not shit this thread up any more, shall we?

jap version

doesn't really count as a tutorial, but it might help people trying to understand musculature.

>>1561149

>adductor

Isn't it "abductor"?

>>1561309
Adduction and abduction are opposing actions, like flexion and extension. Google the muscle names next time.

anything on the limits of the twists/turns etc the body can make? (ie how far can you bend your spine, twist your torso, even subtle things like the wrists)

Thanks.

Don't have a tutorial, but there is nothing better than getting up and doing poses yourself once in a while. This is like making faces while you draw expressions. It's helpful even without a mirror, as you will be relying on your proprioception.

Always exaggerate a little bit; the human body can achieve positions in motion it cannot necessarily hold when stationary.

>>1560960
the lower left is a bad simplification that the artist is able to work in their style, but it's no good for emulation. The back of the hand is not a square box. It curves and arches with the knuckles.
>>1560962
you will intuitively understand the rhythm of the body (curve->straight->curve, etc) after learning some proper anatomy. Also, this is only a cheat sheet for that one angle, since it doesn't consider volume. Legs look quite different seen from the front, or when the figure is seated.
>>1561134
just look up actual body-builder photos
>>1561145
process ok, anatomy off
>>1561152
>>1561154
>>1561158
the actual pelvis is okay, which is why it's odd that the outline is placed without regard to the landmarks the pelvis creates.
>>1561160
>>1561163


I've marked all the "tutorials" I think are useless or might actively set beginners back.

Most of these have the problem that an artist is illustrating anatomy in a cartoony style. If you need anatomy reference, use a book or a model or even a photo of yourself, not some shit you found online.
>>1561149
Even this, which is decent apart from shoddy linework and - foreshortening, has nothing on a good reference work.

A lot of these look like personal reference which found its way online. It's okay and good to make personal references. The danger lies in copying the mistakes other people made in theirs.

>>1560962
correct me if im wrong but aren't those straights actually S curves ?
at least according to hampton and Mattesi.
nothing on the body eally seems like a robotic straights

>>1560960
Reminds me that I haven't checked for Starfighter updates in months, t-thanks OP.

>>1561711

Depends entirely upon what you are doing. Hampton uses straights as well. He only really uses C-S alternations in muscle groups with high activity. Otherwise, you can really just follow the bodies natural rhythm. There is a lot of leeway with art, and at the end of the day, you should focus on what looks correct and appealing.

>>1561151

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

>mfw I'm a medical student and artists know more anatomy than I do by about a thousand percent

Th-there are just so many muscles ;_;
