3.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful use of form, December 31, 2007

Lover of Truth "Jason" (Saratoga Springs, UT) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Modelling and Sculpting Animals (Dover Art Instruction) (Paperback)

This book gives a lot of form to our four-legged animals by showing musculature and how to apply that to the sculpture. Also reviews how they set up the armature for the sculpting and describes the use of "life" in the action. Wonderful reference for the lion, horse, bull, etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of a kind, December 14, 2007

J. A. Buhrer - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Modelling and Sculpting Animals (Dover Art Instruction) (Paperback)

This book, like Lanteri's other work, offers a depth of instruction and insight that is unmatched in sculpture books. In this volume, Lanteri's genius is focused on the subject of wildlife, and I am certain that you will not find better instruction on this subject for any medium than you will in this book.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Modelling and Sculpting Animals (Dover Art Instruction) (Paperback)

For those of us who really need help with getting the relative proportions of animals right, this is the best yet. Unfortunately, the selection of animals is somewhat limited, but if it fits your needs, there is none better.
