3.0 out of 5 stars Drawing Power VOLUME ONE: THE SPLASH PAGE, October 5, 2001
This review is from: Drawing Power Volume 1 (Paperback)
I was a little bit disappointed when I got this in the mail from Amazon. I did not realize it was one in a series of books, and this one being about the splash page.

Once I got over that disappointment I was able to enjoy the book. Inside is many drawings both of rough pencil sketches to finished inked drawings. It is good to see the process a good artist takes in drawing comics.

I was somewhat disappointed that he did not go into detail about drawing the figure, but at least their is a small section about it. I like the way he writes, real easy to read with good advice. "...it is important to remember that all muscles attach to bone. Every muscle must worm it's way over and under other muscles to find it's anchor, the bone.

He also goes touches a little bit about composition, perspective, shading, etc. This book will go well as a supplement to more detailed books, like a figure drawing book.

I will have to say I like the book, even though it has a few blank pages in the back. Page 52, 53, 56, 57, 60, 61 are all blank. Is this an artistic thing or a fluke?...
