give the man a break; it took him 16 years to finish one painting, imagine how long it would take him to finish an entire manga!

Was Leonardo Da Vinci truly the first hack fraud of his time?

I wonder what his method was to do this. Was he drawing as he was dissecting a body? He probably had to skin them and everything.

He most certainly did aquire his knowledge through dissection. The real genius here is that he was able to see these structures in death and then "see" and reproduce it in his art of the living. Bodies in death do not look the same as bodies that are living.
