Ok so trying to do this a couple of weeks ago failed, :( anyway we're here now so lets get going.
We'll start from left to right. First off we get our basic leg shape, in the same way we did the front we keep the same approach, the inside of the thigh will go straight down towards the ankle and the outside will arch towards the knee then the outer ankle.
This next part is harder to explain, but if you look at the direction of all the arrows you get a good idea of the same of the major muscles. From the main bulk of the buttock you'll follow it from underneath to the outer line of your thigh. (depending on the size of your leg will depend on how far you come out before arching back towards the knee).
What I forgot to mention in the last post is that each side of the leg, the muscles are not parallel , the muscles on the inside all drop a little lower than the outer.
If you notice I marked the top of the leg, this is part of the leg which you can feel at your hips, and a good indication where muscles, meet and what not.
Remember that the female figure is leaner than the male, unless your going for a hulking female.
Well thats it really, short and sweet. A very basic look at the back of the leg, I hope this helps in your understanding even a little. To get better go grab some anatomy books, and some workout mags with really pumped up dudes on it. Oh yeah and PRACTICE loads, one sketch a day minimum.
Let me know how you did, and if it helped in any way or didn't help and questions just ask.
