First try at Arms

So the arms!

Arms are very complex and difficult as planes changes alot and muscle create a variation of deformation. If thats not harder enough. The arm can twist, bend, flex and relax in a wide range of articulations so knowing the foundations are key to getting arms to look good.

So the test this week is to develop the arms in 3 poses! 90 degrees superannuated (palm facing body), 90 degrees pronated (palms facing away) and finally arm at 0 degrees pronated. This will cause a lot of problems as the arm twists which causes certain muscles like the bicep to relax when the arm is pronated as the tender is being twisted away from the muscle so it won't work as well.

Top image shows my 90 degrees superannuated so far. Already, there is a long list of reworks.

The images two the right show the areas that need work. The actual placement of the muscles seems ok, but the shape is off and is making the arm look strange and chunky. Also needs a smooth over as the muscles are blocking out and making it look strange.

Final Image shows the general reworks that needed all over. I have outlined alot of the silhouette of the model as at the moment the chest seems huge and some of the muscles are giving off the wrong shape. (sorry for bad image but photoshop seemed to hate me for that moment).
