If you could only have one Anatomy book, what would it be, Bammes or Goldfinger?

+1
The thick anatomy book has most of the drawings of the other booklets. Outside of fat body, muscle body, animals, and clothes.
This board loves to recommend Simplified Forms though. And the Hands one sometimes.

Bridgman was an anatomy autist, he'd pull finger bones out of his pocket to stare at them before he started eating in a public restaurant and he'd use a long stick with a burnt end to mog student's entire drawing in 30 seconds.
All the Bridgman books are his student's recreations and note takings.

What you're learning from bridgman is similar to Vilpu's "feel the motion" type advice. He creates a rhythm that you can build a further foundation from.

Both bammes and golfinger are great to pull up and reference when you feel something is quite not right with your pose.
Anatomy 4 sculptors is a very powerful tool since it can also help you build stronger poses, showing both squash and stretch in muscles, it is especially useful when you are dealing with high energy action poses rather than your average studio/atelier poses.
If you are an animator or major coom artist, anatomy 4 sculptors is great, supplement with Bammes, Goldfunger, Bridgman.
Even better is Michael Hampton's figure drawing book, if you are just starting out with the human figure, Hampton's book is the true beacon in the dark.

False. Ron Lemen lies. Absolute deceit.

This was one of my first art anatomy books, and looking at the plates helped me immensely when I was learning. I still refer to it from time to time.

This. The book has no equivalent and people bitch about it because they read shitty scans/reprints of it.
