What began as a Japanese translation of Human Atlas is now JINTAI 3D, with Z-Anatomy models, peripheral nerves, quizzes and experimental joint motion. But most of my time now goes into checking whether the names and explanations are actually correct. Part 4 of the series.
BodyParts3D, published in Japan in 2009, was found by a Belgian medical illustrator, rebuilt in Blender, and grown into Z-Anatomy by engineers and translators. Then in 2026, an AI post on X led me back to it. Open source isn't free stock: it's a relay of other people's work. Part 3.
