What's good everybody welcome back to Cadillac cartoons and today I'm gonna show you how to draw the human leg And it's not as simple as you think it would But I'm gonna show you how to do it in the simplest way possible and that way you can get it right every time So let me show you I drew a semi circle up here, and that's gonna be the pelvis That's where the legs are gonna start and so what I like to do first now that we got this drawn I'm gonna draw a circle right inside of it But the circle is gonna be sort of towards this side because this is gonna be the bottom So I'm just gonna draw a circle towards the right side And then I'm just gonna draw a dot right here in the middle So to map out the shape of the leg, I'm just gonna draw a dot right here in the middle and I'm just gonna draw a line sort of curved out and that's the thigh muscle Let's make it a little bit longer and Then right here's a halfway point of the leg so that's where the knee is gonna lie and Then once we draw the bottom of the leg that's gonna be Sort of the opposite way so the entire thing is gonna be sort of an S shape And then now here is gonna be the foot so now that we got those drawn Let's start out and draw the leg so the back part of the leg here is gonna be straight And then the thigh muscle is gonna kind of curve out Like so Sort of like a parenthesis shape And then once we get towards the halfway point of the leg that's where the knee is gonna be so we're gonna draw the knee I'm just gonna draw sort of like another part of the knee about right here and then I'm gonna add some shading to it After we draw the knee it's gonna kind of be straight down from here So we're gonna make that part a little bit straight Because the leg only bends from the knee outward. It doesn't bend like this way sort of if that makes sense So when you're drawn so when you're drawing the bottom of the leg try not to make it go towards this way too much Even though this guideline kind of points to the opposite direction of where the knee bends Okay, so the back of the leg so now that we got this halfway point in we're gonna Map out the halfway point between the knee and the ankle. This is where the calf muscles come into place So the calf muscle comes in right About right here And then once we got that in place it kind of lines up with the angle so we can make that a little bit straighter And a kind of taper so you can make this area a little bit smaller down here And then down here we can start to draw the foot And then the ankle will be about right here And And then once we got the entire leg in place we already drew it up I want to take the right contours right right around here and I like to repeat that process only for the right side of the leg So the knee shape will be the same Everything on the right side of this leg will kind of be the same Just so I can make it look like there's two legs and they're they're supposed to be so Can just shade this other leg here since we're gonna see this leg the first and we can add shade into this other one that we drew And then let me try to erase these guidelines because we don't need them anymore And There you go. That's how you draw the human leg So if you like this video and you find it useful give it a like and a comment subscribe if you haven't and tap notification bell So you never miss an upload and I'll see you guys on my next video
