Anatomy for 3D Artists: The Essential Guide for CG Professionals

Very informative and well illustrated for 3D sculpting.

I haven't finished this book yet but I am quite pleased with it so far. I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes human anatomy and proportions but this book is providing me with quite a lot of useful information that's helping me improve my work. This is definitely worth to buy if you're a beginner 3d artist and wants to improve your knowledge on human anatomy. It's also quite easy to follow even for someone like me whose first language isn't English.

If you are a game designer or even an animation student this is definitely something you should have as part of a book collection. My teacher had told our class to all look into this book or purchase it for ourselves as it will help us to understand the human body more and get the correct proportion for 3D character designs. Overall it’s a interesting book to study from.

Great book for learning anatomy for a 3d Artist. I am making my first zbrush models. This really helped me to get a real factor to my modelling. I scroll through it to see how to make a certain area now.

Excellent book Full of images with clear explanations about the human anatomy Fully recommended!!

The only art anatomy book I've found that is actually useful for drawing, instead of setting you up to pass a medical exam.

A very useful tool for understanding human anatomy when beginning to sculpt the human form.

Very informative with detailed references along the way. It has been helping a lot with my understanding of anatomy and assisting in my daily sculpts directing me where I have gone wrong many times. Bad parts: The physical whole quality of book itself was poor. The binding glue or adhesive isn’t strong and within 2 days of having it the front and back cover has come off. I’m probably going to have to glue this back on because I can’t be bothered to wait for the return process and delivery of the book once again when it should have been decent quality to begin with. For the price you pay you would think the quality of glue holding the thing together would be great. Not happy.

O livro traz breakdowns de artes de profissionais da área, dando dicas de como iniciar, onde focar, planos do rosto/corpo, macetes gerais, referências de anatomia, dicas de softwares (ZBrush/Maya), ainda acompanha fotos de ecorche masculino e feminino na frente e no verso, assim como passo a passo de processos mais complicados, como criação de expressões, gesturing, mãos e pés. Não esquecendo de que é um livro para character artists, então ele tem sim algumas dicas de produção como retopologia e topologia para animação, mesmo que poucas. O foco maior do livro é no processo artístico da anatomia para a criação de personagens convincentes e realistas. É essencial que todo artista 3D tenha esse livro na sua estante e sempre faça a consulta antes e durante a criação de um personagem.

Arrivato in anticipo ed in ottime condizioni. Un ottimo pezzo in più da aggiungere alla propria libreria per artisti tradizionali e digitali. Molto chiaro e visivamente e graficamente efficace, con immagini esemplificative, studio e analisi di alcuni casi esemplari (si parte da una base generale di apparato scheletrico, proporzioni, muscoli e marker in base al genere e poi si approfondisce prendendo in esame casi specifici e distretti muscolari, valutando anche il corpo in varie pose/posizioni) Speravo in qualcosina in più per la sezione sulla topologia, ma ciò non sminuisce affatto il valore del volume e l'ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Consigliato.

Enfocado completamente para artistas 2D y 3D, excelente calidad de material. Definitivamente una lectura obligada para cualquier modelador, animador o rigger. La información está muy bien estructurada las fotos e imágenes ayudan mucho, aborda por separado el cuerpo masculino y el femenino. Excelente libro.

A very good guide to help you get a good surface anatomy knowledge of humans. It really helps to learn the basic landmarks of anatomy. It has various methods to sculpt the human figures, Like from scratch and from zsphere also it has been shown how to sculpt human body.

The Book covers the field of human Anatomy and gives a lot of reference to use for sculptings. Besides showing the different muscles and other important landmarks of the human body it also provides the reader with a lot of tips and tricks. Easy to read (even for me as a german) with a lot of pictures showing the worksteps en detail. In the front- and backcover there are also referencecards included showing the male and female proportions and naming the musclegroups. For me as a 3D-Artist the most useful book on human anatomy I know so far. Absolutely worth it!
