Dog Anatomy Drawing

Skeleton - I'm going to dissect this dog anatomy from bone to flesh. Let's observe the skeleton of a basic generic dog. Notice how the bones of a dog aren't as complex as say a human. Though this isn't an exact replica of a canine skeletal structure,

Organs - Here's a simplistic breakdown of a canine's organs. Notice there isn't much here, just the basics. This reference would be great to use if you're drawing again, gory scenes or some sort of macabre which requires references of canine organs.

The Muscular Anatomy - Here's another breakdown of the muscular components that dress the dog. Study all the various tendon discolorations and the way the muscles intersect with one another.

Description: How long have you waited for something on the anatomy of a dog? Well, this has actually been sitting in my tut folder for a week, I just had to get the energy to actually make the steps and and anatomy drawings of the dog before I uploaded this lesson. I wouldn't even call this a lesson because it's basically everything about a dog from the inside out. Of course I made a German Shepherd because I have German Shepherds. I had a lot of fun with making this anatomy drawing even if it did take forever to make. Thanks guys and I hope you all have fun and I also hope that this comes in useful.
