Help Anatomy And Typology in modeling

#1

while i have been modeling too many ppl told me that i have been modeling totally wrong because i have to model in some particular ways not just adding random loops so i have been modeling totally wrong and it will be away too hard for the rigger to rig the characters…

I don’t even know what Anatomy or typology in 3D is…

So i would like anyone show me some information and where to study anatomy and typology?

Thanks…

The process you are inquiring about is called edge loop modeling:

An edge loop closely mimics how real muscles work, and if built correctly, will give you control over contour and silhouette in any position.

Some examples / theory by a professional artist (Pixar style):

Human anatomy is not something you learn in one sitting so you’ll have to find books on the subject,
Scott Eaton’s site is a gold mine:

Well it doesn’t matter how long it takes to learn those stuff, I have motivations to learn so…
I will be needing the easier way to learn that don’t wanna get stuck in a complicated way.

Thanks anyways for the help.
