Skin off, just about every pose and angle one could want… pretty cool. Nice setup for 30 second studies.

Bit of surface anatomy: http://anatomy.med.umich.edu/surface/index.html#pelvis

Not full coverage, but what is there is reasonably well photographed, and well labeled.

I would also like to contribute and add this site
Face Recognition Database Listing

The images from MIT-CBCL Face Recognition Database are pretty good imo, I didn’t check everything out though.

Oh yeah, thanx alot 4 the tread :applause:

Interactive real-time 3D skeleton plus muscles, organs, etc. Click on any muscle/bone/etc. to see the name, hide it or make it transparent. See relationships between muscles, the bones under them, the skin over them. Wow.

You have to register an email address, it only runs in Windows using Internet Explorer, Flash, and the Anark player, and it’s only online. Ouch x4.

But… it’s free, and totally worth the effort. Amazing stuff.

Hi. For a number of reasons I have not been active in the CGSociety since 2007! I have modelled - and still do model - for local life drawing classes and sessions. I still have a private “imageevent” modelling site, which was used by Rebecca’s Artistic Anatomy and Figurative Art sessions. It seemed to work well and some of Rebecca’s students found many of my poses useful. However, some of the photographs of me were starting to appear on Google!! At my request Rebecca took it down.

However, my site IS still there at “imageevent”, and I am thinking of adding some more poses. I would still like to offer Rebecca and her students the use of this site for their work and for practicing their drawing skills. It can be found at:
www.imageevent.com/eyrebrush
This is a secure site, and is protected, by a password - for obvious reasons! If anyone would like the use of my images they would be most welcome. but you would need to pm me for the password.

I have no objection to members’ drawings being displayed. I would love to see them myself. :slight_smile:
