NOTE: I'm not trying to push any sexual identity agenda or statement with these, so for those calling this tutorial "cis-sexist", keep in mind that tutorials such as these are much easier and simpler to explain this way to an art-education audience.
I got so many inquiries about a male tutorial, so thanks to everyone for their patience. As with my female tutorial, I don't intend to offend anyone with these, so please don't get offended for some reason. These are very generalized body types, so there are a million types in between these.
I may do up some more intensive anatomical tutorials based on my schooling and others' methods.
As before, there are many illustrators out there that know much more than I do, so I highly suggest studying their work and methodology:
Frank Frazetta
Tanino Liberatore
Steve Huston
Michael Hampton
Moebius
John Buscema
Burne Hogarth
Andrew Loomis
Milo Manara
Paolo Serpieri
Phil Hale
Nishimura Kinu
Jeffrey Catherine Jones
Barry Windsor-Smith
Bernie Wrightson
Bengus
YOU CAN ASK ME FOR MORE ILLUSTRATORS IF YOU NEED INSPIRATION IN OTHER AREAS.

Yeah, I remember thinking the exact way about Adam and Dog, very well done.

I come to realize certain people tend to think too hard about certain matters or details that are extremely moot. There's still that sort of prudishness we tend to use a lot over how we depict ourselves in any art.
In the case of animals, I feel there's this attitude to want to see them in the most anatomically correct way possible, when in fact, most animated takes of normal animal designs tend to still favor that gender-neutral look besides secondary sexual characteristics that cartooning makes possible. I hate to say I don't favor seeing animals look too realistic or need to have those parts at all since I see that every day normally. It's easier to look at animals and not think of them as overtly-sexual beings as some make them out to be.

O....k... didn't really answer my question...

I did. I basically said that I'm not going to bend over backwards to satisfy one person's request.
If you can't handle looking at genitalia, go find another tutorial.

Who said it was bending over backwards, you act like I asked you to demean yourself, I just thought it wasn't needed calm down

That would mean I'd have to go and erase some things I drew, just to please the sole one person who complained about it.

Adding too much muscle also result in random pouches, blocky guns, random lines on the face, and small eyes?

And your feet will develop a mind of their own and find random objects to hide behind.

Wow, what a great tutorial! Your drawing skills are awesome, and all these examples here about how muscles and fat should be placed are really helping me... Same thought for the female one, of course! I love figure drawing.^^

THnak you for sharing
Male body types are often underestimated when it comes to learning anatomy
A quick rundown of the different types, with or without muscle, is golden

Yeah, it would seem that most underestimate the diversity in males especially when compared to female diversity.

This is a really nice tutorial. Thanks!

Great tutorial, really helpful. The tutorial itself and the list of artists you added. I'll for sure look them up.

thats really cool...good to see you mentioned fat cause i think people forget about that, even on the muscular guys. i think adding mid section fat to a muscular character makes them look even more powerful.
as far as your list, I've been really into serpieri this year, he's just too good. very detailed but effortless looking at the same time and he's able to get a shit ton of depth in his figures and compositions.

The bodybuilders that are obviously on steroids ironically look rather whimpy to me, haha.
Yeah, his work is amazing, I just wish that he didn't draw so much porn, it can be so offputting when you have to look at THAT much, haha.

looking at the midget makes me wonder who would ever draw a midget? in other words want to draw one?
👍: 0 ⏩: 3
Well, they help in drawing fantasy archetypes such as dwarves and whatnot.
Ha, I'll draw anything if you're looking for a commission!

that's surprisingly small minded, dude. Could you please be a little more tallerant?

Shit, i didnt intend to make a pun out of it but i think you just won the internet today
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wow, that's surprisingly smaĺl minded.
Firstly, they're Little People, not midgets. Midget is a term from the 1940's and is considered derogatory.
Second, does the name TYRION Lannister or Peter Dinklage mean anything to you? How about Warwick Davis? Tony Cox? Verne Taylor? Had it not occurred to you these people might want to draw these people as fanart?
