What is the model doing here? They are not sculpting him are they? I'm curious to what the model is doing in relation to the sculpture.

It is extremely helpful to have a model in the ecorche class so that students can learn to recognize the muscles as they appear on the living. The model can take different poses and move around so that students can see the muscles in action.
