"ai makes it so i, a not artistically inclined person, can visually represent something exactly how i imagine it"

that's valid buddy, don't get me wrong. however, ai is still stinky even if it's convenient. let me list some alternatives for you that aren't just "pick up a pencil" because that can sound a little bit belittling sometimes

make a moodboard of images that line up with your vision. even if it's not all in one art piece, it gets the point across and is really fun to do! use pinterest, google images, or even magazine clippings

find a free to use lineart of the thing you want and color it yourself the way you imagine. make sure you credit the original artist and get permission if you're going to benefit from it financially in any way

if you can, commission an actual artist! yes it's expensive but you are supporting a real awesome persons career that is quickly being replaced by ai!!!

find a tutorial of how to draw/paint the thing and follow it. even if it doesn't turn out perfect, you're learning something new

legs tutorial

a female-centric tutorial for legs <3

we start with bones.

as you can see, the femur juts out, and there's a gap between it and the iliac crest-- this forms what ppl know as "hip dips". some women don't have them.

here's some legs with different fat and muscle contents for comparison

but why are they *shaped* like that? (I hear u ask). well, muscles. muscles can Bulge or Wrap. Think of it as a garter on a thigh-- the thigh bulges, the garter wraps. the thigh then bulges gloriously around it.

here are some simplified representations of the important muscle groups in the leg.

the gracilis/abductor magnus is the "inner thigh". it bulges.

the rectus femoris is a part of the massive bulges we see on muscular legs. it's the middle one

the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis are muscles on the lower inside and outside of your thigh, and are the other bulges you see on muscular legs

the sartorius originates at the hip and wraps around the rectus femoris to terminate at the medial femur (inner knee-ish). it's the garter in this example-- it causes those bulging muscles to squish in the inner thigh.

the anterior tibialis and some other muscles wrap around the shin area.

the gastrocnemius is what we know as the calf. it's the meat of your lower leg, the bulging muscle we all think of when we think "calf"
