A highly realistic medical illustration focusing on a human arm and leg bones affected by melorheostosis. The bones appear visibly thickened, irregular, and larger than normal, with clear, layered bone growth resembling melted wax dripping down the side of the bones. The image shows a side-by-side comparison with a healthy bone for clarity, highlighting the difference in size and texture. The color palette includes neutral bone colors with subtle shading to show the abnormal contours and ridges. The background is clean and minimalistic, with faint anatomical grid lines for a scientific, educational feel. The overall mood is informative and precise, conveying the key visual characteristic of melorheostosis: progressive bone thickening that makes bones visibly larger and irregular.image
