Study group - hips & glutes 3

Diagram of hip & butt musculature from the front, side, and back. Plus a row of those augmented with the basic fat pads that gives those areas shape

In the Love Life Drawing study group, we are now ready for the actual anatomy of hips and thighs, albeit a little bit simplified. I think these are some of the best bones I’ve drawn, and probably the best diagram overall. It’s fascinating to me the impact fat has on this area, and the way it accumulates in discrete, well known pockets. I saw a video just recently that talked about facial fat pads, which was similarly illuminating.
