Anatomy Models

its not worth it
learn from life/photos instead
or if you are at a museum, sure the sculptures are awesome
but if you need a 200 dollar sculpture for everything you want to learn to draw (in one pose) then youre gonna be bankrupt pretty soon

Also it's hand cast in resin, stands 7in tall.
Shipping to my country is around $50.

Well that is how I've been doing it until now, I just thought having it on hand would be useful.

There's also this guy's stuff I was looking at, prices are a bit lower and he has some interesting species (models show both muscles and skin).

Honestly I kinda like these for their looks as well as for anatomy study.

Am I the only one who strongly dislike the whole split muscles showing on one side/ with skin on the other kind of anatomical models? I find them very unasthetic and visually messy to look at. I'd rather have the whole figure flayed for symmetry.

practice with sktechfab 3d models

White people will fucking buy anything

>>2808950
Don't own 3d software on my laptop nor really want it; want something I can just reach for instead of getting into a program

I think Jun's one like that chimp look pretty nice. Especially as references for chimp anatomy is pretty fucking slim on the internet.

Jeez, you can buy a live dog for that much money

>want something I can just reach for instead of getting into a program

If the convenience of not spending literally 15 to 30 seconds opening a program is worth $200 to you just buy the damn model, but it's a giant waste of money and your money would be better spent on almost any other resource (like an animal anatomy book).

>>2808922
just make your own model out of sculpey, you'll learn the anatomy much better that way. The guy you're planning on buying from made that to learn anatomy, you should do the same.

Well to be fair drawing from life and viewing a physical object is different than looking at a 3d model.
That said though, I've learnt alot about canine anatomy by referencing 3d dog models in a current project

>>2808948

The point is to see the underlying surface anatomy and how the skin wraps around it on the same figure.

I do have several animal anatomy books. I like the idea of having an anatomical statuette on my desk both for aesthetic and study purposes - being an aspiring creature designer - I just wanted to know if $200-300AUD is the "standard" price for a 7-inch-tall hand-cast model with high quality resin.
I also wanted to know how often people refer to their own models for drawing different angles and such.
I own a fox skull I bought years ago and I've found it highly useful even with access to internet and paper sources.

I don't really have an interest in just jumping into an entirely new medium that I have no interest in right now.

>>2808922
My professors has several of these and they're really nice. Stuff like that seems to be pretty expensive since it's very niche.

If you can't afford them they're great. Otherwise do this >>2808989

Long shot, but do you know where your prof buys them from?

sketchfab is a website, you just search what you want to see like pinterest with 3d models. Keep up with the tech fgt

Interdasting

>>2809063
I like it, where's that available?

>>2809003
buying that statue vs making your own is like buying someone's notes instead of going to class. It might contain all the information you need, but you won't understand it as well as if you actually did it yourself. If you're already good enough to start getting into animal anatomy you're probably already good enough to pick up a new medium when it's important for your progression.

>>2809122
Making your own and using it as a reference is a terrible idea. Any errors you make you'll internalize.

>>2808948
It's meant to be practical. It's also far more aesthetically pleasing honestly

Does anyone have any dog 3d models? I have daz and a few doggies, they are ok for main proportions but I was thinking something with more anatomical detail like the sculpture in OP:
