Practice identifying the facial muscles, and then sculpt these muscles one at a time onto a representation of the skull. A plastic skull will work, but you could also use a clay skull you've sculpted for previous assignments.

Contour Gauge with Lock|10+5 Inch Construction Rulers Measure Tool for Corners and Contoured, is a handy tool for checking complex 3D sculptures… like the shape of the skull from front to back, side to side.. and even a profile. Find them on Amazon.

If you want a 3D view of the entire body, bones, muscles, etc. try Essential Anatomy 5 app. It allows you to rotate 360 degrees up, down and around. Plus it identifies each of the muscles, bones. Great reference.

Hey very nicely done! this is a great exercise and I'm really impressed with how yours turned out. I still need to do my own version of this.

In this mini sketch I'm just trying to provide a reminder of the muscle groups since my drawing style is similar to Frank Reilly's. Since I learned about it from Court Jones and it is related to muscular anatomy, I decided to group the muscle masses (secondary) into B. Hogart's model and from there to smaller fractions... there are even much smaller parts of the anatomy that suggests a microgesture like the internal anatomy of the eye! A friend told me that there are things smaller than an atom.
