I always felt that photos did poor justice to the breathtaking dimensionality of skulls, so lets try something different. (Making animated gifs is something I’m somewhat new at, so bear with me here.)

This is a Gaboon Viper skull.

Gaboons are large (highly-venomous) African vipers, that hold the unique distinction of having the longest fangs in the world, with the ability to inject more venom than any other snake. There’s usually two (or more) fangs on each side. 

In the photo below, you can see a groove at the base of the foremost fangs, through which the venom duct enters the hollow fang.

After a few Google and deviantART searches I came across a couple things that may help: Fashion Drawing: How to Draw a CorsetHow to Dress a Lady I would suggest researching different styles of corsets and what their functions are. Understanding what the garment does will help your anatomical decisions. And of course, photo references are wonderful resources: Victorian and Edwardian Corset PhotographsCorset Boudoir Photography (semi-NSFW) Hope that helps! Edit: If anyone has some more helpful resources, my submit box is open: http://anatomyrefs.tumblr.com/submit

FEETS

Hey guys!! someone asked for feet, so here ya go.

To be honest though, I think the best advice for stuff like feet/hands is to literally just sit down and draw your own any chance you get. Seeing it move in space was super helpful for me.

Evolution Patrick Gries

“This project offers an atypical approach to viewing natural science. The photo series of Paris’ Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle’s collections of vertebrates presents these skeletons as sculptures and forces us to reconsider the boundaries between artistic and scientific objects.”
