The information on the heart made it seem like there's two separate hearts. I think it would look cleaner if you had the heading say "the heart" and describe the left and the right sides of the heart instead of saying left heart and right heart. Also the superior vena cava is feeling left out

Yeah, I tried to put in the SVC and subclavian arteries and brachiocephalic veins but things got too clumped up at the top, so I excised them. Next time, I'll plan the structure ahead of time

I understand. It's like drawing muscles too. If you draw all of the muscles on a person it's going to look all mutated and non-human. I just thought I'd bring it up because the SVC is just about as important as the IVC. Otherwise that poor guy on your diagram wouldn't get any blood back from his upper extremities! 
Maybe there could be diagrams separating the upper body and lower body. I like the direction you're headed in it. It would be interesting to see different kinds of injuries in other tutorials because it's not a very explored subject.

Hmm... good idea! I might do one on all sorts of battle damage, or I might include that in a section of my 'drawing fight scenes' tutorial that will come up sooner or later. Let me write that down...
