You lost me at 4:00 - 4:15. I'm not sure what those lines are suppose to be. That's the latissimus dorsi region but we didn't go over any striations when learning to draw it in the form video. I'm thinking maybe the teres major, but it looks so far away from the rib cage I can't imagine the scapula being way out there for the teres major to be positioned liked that.

Hi Simon.
If you are referring to the oval-like shape on the far right, it's actually the teres major (there is also a part of the muscle that is covered by the latissimus dorsi).
It seems very strange to me too, but it shows how much the teres major stretches when the arm is raised.
Anthony's muscles are so developed, that they bulge out, so they seem very far from the rib cage, but if you draw the humerus and scapula as we learnt, you will see the stretching.

I really don't understand the first example in this video. The model is able to have the inferior border of the scapula almost horizontal, but Stan draws it at barely an upward angle. Am I misunderstanding how the scapula is positioned in the model and it is being drawn accurately or is Stan taking some liberties and drawing it not as extreme?
Agree, the medial border of the scapula looks almost horizontal but that does not makes sense from what she is doing. It looks like she's tilting anteriorly, but I don't think that would usually cause enough movement for the medial border to be horizontal. From the reference I see the medial border of the scapula angling towards trapezius, then the superior border turns inferiorly toward the corocoid process and glenoid cavity.
