Straight on and 3/4 Front Views

The quadratus lumborum can be seen in the 3/4 view on the side. It attaches at the 12th rib, transverse process of L1 to L4, the posterior iliac crest, and the iliolumbar ligament. It functions to help flex the spine.The external obliques can be seen in both shots. These attach to the 5th through 12th ribs, the anterior of the Serratus, the linea alba, iliac crest, and the inguinal ligament. Their function is to flex the spine, compress the abdoman, and allow a person to twist at the waist.
The rectus abdominus is also seen in both shots. They attach at the cartilage of ribs 5 to 7, the xiphoid process, and the pubic symphasis. Their function is to flex the spine as well as help a person consciously exhale. The navel can be seen indicated as a small indentation in the straight on view. The tendons are indicated by lined showing the "6-pack" and the white clay down the middle.

The spinal erectors are visible in both views shown here. They include the spinalis cervicis, attaching to vertibrae C2-C4 and C7-T2 which extend the cervical vertebrae. Also the spinalis capitis, which attaches to the medial occipital bone, and C7-T1, and allow the head to rotate. The spinalis thoracis is also included, attaching to T1-T8 and T11-L2, and extends the thoracic vertebrae.
The longissimus capitus attaches at the dorsal mastoid process and to C4-T5. It allows the head to flex laterally. The longissimus cervicis attaches to C2-C6 and T1-T5 which laterally flexes the cervical vertebrae. The longissimus thoracis attaches to T1-T12, ribs 3-12, vertibrae L1-L5, the quadratus lumborum fascia, and the lumbodorsal fascia. It laterally extends and flexes the lumbar vertebrae and rotates the thoracic vertebrae.
The iliocostalis cervicis attaches to vertebrae C4-C6 and the angles of ribs 3-6, which extends and flexes the cervical vertebrae. The iliocostalis thoracis attaches to the angle of ribs 1-6 and to ribs 7-12. It rotates thoracic vertebrae. The iliocostalis lumborum attaches to the angles of ribs 7-12 and the medial iliac crest. It extends and flexes the lumbar vertebrae and rotates the thoracic vertebrae.
2. To build the muscles, I would knead the clay to warm it up before rolling it flat and cutting it into the general shape I needed. I would then re-shape it as needed after it was attached to the model.
3. While building, I learned that this is a lot harder than I thought it was, and a bit more frustrating when the muscles are small, such as the ones in the neck.
4. I turned my frustration into a want to get the assignments done--sort of the idea of not letting the clay win.
5. The rate at which the clay cooled off and became hard to work was pretty frustrating, so I worked faster to have it in place before it got too cold. I also seemed to have trouble keeping the layers of clay thin enough so that the next ones wouldn't seem too bulky.
6. The problems I solved were having enough clay to create muscles in one piece, as well as working fast enough so the clay was warm enough to move easily.
7. In the next assignment, I'll probably try to work more clay at a time so one piece doesn't get cold while I'm kneading another.
8. Keep the clay you're using warm, unless you need to twist it. Don't be afraid to carve it off if you have too much clay, and keep the layers thin.
9. Building this model will help me understand the shapes of muscles better.
10. I looked at pictures I found on google.
