The arm and hand handbook
Anatomy book for artists about arms and hands in motion!
Arms and hands have the greatest range of motion of all body parts, which means a massive number of possible positions. We captured the form of arms and hands in all significant poses.
Dynamic movements
The various arm and hand muscles get flexed and extended in dynamic movements, and their form changes with each position. Thus we get unique shapes for each new posture.
From every angle
For this book, we developed a new way to do 3D scans, which can capture all the nuanced shapes of an arm from every angle.
Whether it is flexed, extended, abducted, adducted, supinated, pronated, or in between – it’s all covered.
Female and Male
Explore detailed differences in surface forms of male and female arms and hands in motion and learn the anatomy behind them!
Each of us is different, and there are a lot of individual variations in males and females, yet you can learn general trends.
Simple to complex system
Start with simple shapes to build the complex organic forms of the arm and hand. This book features 1st and 2nd level blockouts of the upper extremities to help you understand their form.
Next to the blockouts, you will find color-coded muscle diagrams and 3D scans of realistic surface anatomy for various arm and hand positions.
Gain confidence
Understand bony landmarks and muscles that create the surface of the shoulder, upper arm, forearm, and hand to become more confident in your art.
These companies let us put their logos here. They also use our books in their everyday work.
