For learning what the human anatomy looks like you´d best get a book like "Gottfried Bammes - The artists guide to human anatomy".

Also check out this (note that there are painted naked people and that some moron bosses might consider this NSFW) site. There are a whole bunch of excerpts from a Bammes book.

But what about Orky anatomy?

Orks? You simply take Human Anatomy and exagerate it.

If you want a more muscular comic booky anatomy. The Dynamic Anatomy series is really good.

I found this stack of sketches at work while I was cleaning out my cabinet.
The first one might be NSFW and the last one is a couple of days old which is why one has part of my Turkey Day menu on it.

Currently a work in progress. Inspired by a class mate who always has the songs in her head, the Kick ass Iced Earth song and having been forced to role play the character. I apologize for the suckass effects of having to photograph it instead of scanning it, but the scanner is busted.

Here is a sketch of the President's office from My Spacewolf Story.

Sorry for the necro, but I didn't think this was worth a whole other thread.

Here's some tank doodles I did about 10 min ago:

I'm glad you Necro'd, I really like a bit of the technical drawing you guys do. I'm also sad there haven't been and Buff Dudes or Goddamn Fruity Elves recently. I animate, so my drawings tend to be insanely unpolished before cleanup and ink, and the ability to get such nice clean lines on a single pass is still something I'd like to master for my own personal drawing. That is, without cheating and getting a wacom!

Do you use any reference for the mechanical/technical types or just freehand it from brain? Not to add discussion to the sketch thread, but still!

For me, it's about 50/50. I have a large selection of books on tanks and armored warfare, but I mainly just glance at these.
