Illustrations of Dissection of the Hip and Thigh

This gallery of medical illustrations concentrates on muscle of the hip and thigh. The first illustration was used as part of a research medical paper commissioned by a physiotherapist. Areas of interest that needed to be shown were the Lateral Epicondyle, Gluteus Maximus, cut and reflected to show the gluteus medias and then on to show the area of Gerdy's Tubercle.

All the artwork was originally hand drawn as a pencil sketch. The sketches were then scanned and used as the base of the illustrations. To create the colour work, a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop was used.
