Figure 10.17 The torso built up with more strokes. Notice that the head and the trapezius

muscles are now suggested.

Figure 10.18 The left inside view.

The strokes are used to represent the

overall outline or silhouette of the leg.

5. After further work on the torso, you can see how
   the strokes are laid out in a simplified manner
   to represent the overall form. In Figure 10.19,
   single strokes represent the abdominal muscles
   and the oblique muscles of the midsection. I have
   also added small balls for the fists.


6. You can isolate strokes by Ctrl+Shift-clicking
   on them. This will hide all other strokes and
   allow you to mask just the visible stroke. Here
   I have masked everything but the back of the
   arm. I can now use the Bulge brush to suggest
   the mass of the triceps muscle on the back of the
   arm (Figure 10.20). Figure 10.21 shows the back
   of the figure where you can see strokes for the
   mass of the triceps as well as other major muscle
   forms of the back. Notice that I don’t try to cap-
   ture any detail—just general form.
