Don’t see so much of #anatomyart here, pls say hi if you like medical illustration! Here’s an old piece I did last year. We all have around 1.8M gloms and they filter 150-180L of blood per day. - ThreadSky

I see you shaded the macula densa 🙂 this is incredible art!

Been reading up on those today along with how they are full of glucagon receptors.
