Medical Illustration Photoshop Tutorial: How to Draw Muscles

Annie
Written By Annie Campbell

Over the summer one of my Youtube subscribers asked me if I could do a few small tutorials for them: 

“...Btw, would love to see your process for drawing other major body tissues like fat, muscle, connective tissue, etc. even if there are no brush shortcuts :)...”


I thought that it sounded pretty fun so this was my Photoshop tutorial for how I draw muscles for my medical illustrations. Hope you enjoy and if you have any suggestions for future tutorials feel free to email me or drop me a message on my channel.
