5.0 out of 5 stars Only Book Of Its Kind, January 9, 2007

By	Nancy Kingston (San Clemente, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm thrilled that I finally have a book that tells how to digitally as well as manually color architectural and landscape drawings. It gives tips on using a scanner to get drawings or photographs into a layer of Photoshop and then how to manipulate the layers including opacity and filters. The technics for using markers and colored pencils to achieve realistic wood, rocks,leaves, water, and chrome are outstanding. Includes great tips on paper colors, and what to include or leave out of a drawing to give it visual punch. The entire 414 pages are drawings and tips specifically dedicated to the needs of architects, landscape architects, and interior designers though any graphic person would find tremendous value in this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book, February 19, 2007

By	Jennifer L. Napieralski "Interiors girl" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am an Interior Design major and my professor recommended this book for the use of Prismacolor markers. It gives you great advice on how to render (coloring using the Prismacolor markers to show colors and shadows) and different techniques so you can get the effect you want.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great update to a wonderful book!, February 20, 2009

By	Draw4Luv "Luv2Draw" (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews

The 3rd edition of Doyle's fantastic Color Drawing is far more than just a cosmetic update! The tried-and-true marker and color techniques are still there, but with new twists and tricks. From quick study sketches to final renderings, he will help you be a better communicator. Best of all, the author offers up loads of great information on editing and enhancing traditional drawings with Photoshop!

Every design student AND practicing professional should keep a copy of this right next to his/her workspace...
