2021-07-21 16:10:27 +0000 UTCI think NIMA of this guy called Ross Draws, really helps inspiring you to create a new world by yourself! And it's beautiful af
2021-07-17 23:16:27 +0000 UTCAnatomy for Sculptors by Uldis Zarins is pretty thorough when it comes to that kind of thing. I would also recommend Nathan Fowkes' portrait book.
2021-07-17 22:29:01 +0000 UTCsome parts are darker ** not cooler lol

2021-07-17 16:49:24 +0000 UTCAnyone knows of a portrait book that explains well the temporal area /cheekbone area in different ppl ? That area to me is kinda hard to visualize . The part near the ears is lighter and some parts coolest to the eyes are darker and it’s so different in everyone :)

2021-07-17 03:58:13 +0000 UTCThe "Sketching from the imagination" series is really helpful for me. So many great artists are featured in each book and their styles are so interesting and diverse. Highly recommend them

2021-07-17 00:26:09 +0000 UTCThe only art book i have (other than Nima) is actually a 21 Draw book called the "Illustator's Guidebook" and it is interesting! If it wasn't for it i would've not been able to draw guys better than i do now and it help with my anatony problems with girls too! It also teaches character designing , perspective, and composition

2021-07-17 00:25:37 +0000 UTCThe art book for the spider verse movie is the coolest eye candy I have!

2021-07-17 00:21:15 +0000 UTCI learned with the George Bridgeman Complete Guide for Drawing from Life, also Drawing the Head and Figure by Jack Hamm, also Michael Hampton’s Figure Drawing Design and Invention. As for artist art books, this would include Akihiro Yamada, Shinobu Tanno, Jun Suemi, Boris Vallejo and Frank Frazetta
