How to draw the figure? # 3


9. Starting again with the head, and thinking of it as a cube
with front, sides, top, back and base, draw it on a level
with the eye, foreshortened or in perspective.

10. Outline the neck and from the pit of the neck draw a line
down the center of the chest.

11. At a right angle to this line, where stomach and chest
join, draw another line and then draw lines to indicate
the rib cage as a block, twisted, tilted or straight, accord
ing to its position.

12. Now draw the thigh and the leg which support the·
greatest part of the weight of the body, making the thigh
round, the knee square, the calf of the leg triangular and
the ankle square. Then draw the arms.
