In these images i've constructed various muscles on the thighs. This was more difficult than the neck and back muscles because of all the layering and covering of muscles there are in the thighs.

In this image you see and don't see several of the thigh muscles because of the layering of the muscles. We've got the Vastus Intermedialis which extends the knee, and the Vastus Medialis Which Extends the knee, displaces the platella medially and rotates the femur laterally on the tibia. And the Vastus Lateralis which are not seen because they are covered by other muscles of the thigh. The Rectus Femoris which flexes the hip, bringing the thigh against the thorax.

This view gives a better shot of the thigh muscles, we are able to see parts of vastus muscles in this image.
BACK VIEW
We start to see the Adductor Longus wrap from the bottom of the pelvis to the side of the femur. And this muscle Adducts and Flexes the hip. We also see the Adductor Brevis which also connects from the pelvis to the top of the femur which also flexes and adducts the hip. In the back we also see the thicker group of muscles which include the Adductor Magnus which adducts, flexes and laterally rotates the hip. The thinner muscle on the out side of the Magnus is the gracilis which flexes and medially rotates the knee, and adducts the hip.
