Having drawn the rib cage and the muscles of the upper torso in the previous tutorial, this tutorial focuses on the lower torso (or pelvic region) from a three-quarter, eye-level view. At the end of this lesson, we will combine the drawings of the the upper and lower torso to create an image of the entire trunk of the figure from a three-quarter view.
