Anterior Disection of the orbital cavity
Moving onto the anatomy side, here is an Anterior dissection of the right eye. Unlike the ears where I started with the smallest bones and worked out. I wanted to start with the eye, from the outside and work inwards. After doing my sketch of my left eye, this seemed the next logical step.
Its a bit of a creepy image as well, which is always a good thing. A bit of a bombardment of new labels to learn, and I was going to write some of them down for you. But, when looking them up I have come across two excellent images relating to the muscles of the eye (obliques and rectus) which I am going to draw next. It also going to tie back to my drawing of the cranial nerves. so watch this space.
The drawing itself, is a bit elongated in my opinion. I think this might be slightly down to how I was copying it , with it being rested on my knee. I also tried a new sketch pad which I got from Rymans. Its called “The artist A4 sketchpad 180gsm” . It might be good for ink, as the paper is quite solid, but I had a real hard time blending on this. You can probably see, not even zooming in, that the blending is quite harsh.
Unlike the cheap boldmere sketching pad, in which I turned its downfalls to my advantage, I cant see this pad being used for much more than doodling. Save your money.
