5 out of 5 starsGreat book to improve skills
Delivered fast with no problems. As described.

Great book for improving your skills as an artist. Great information on inking, sketches, perspective, comic book tips, tricks, etc. All around good buy.



2 out of 5 starsNOT the book for aspiring young artists.
I have to say that I was disappointed in "You Can Draw Marvel Characters." While many of the illustrations are impressive, it provides little explanation and really seems to be merely an opportunity to show off and market the new Marvel comics to children. Its sections are rather shallow, spending little time on the rudiments and making only a vague showing of teaching children to draw. I would recommend Draw the Marvel Comics Super Heroes (Drawing Tools), which takes a much more patient, reassuring, hands-on approach to teaching children the rudimentsof drawing, and which will do doubt be more helpful.



5 out of 5 starsFantastic book!
Wow! This book is beautiful AND it really helps you to draw Marvel or any other character! A great guide for those starting in the world of drawing, and a good help for those who are farther along the path. The presentation is really breathtaking, the pages are big, colorful and detailed, and it includes transparent pages so you can see the rough work over the finished piece. By far the best "How to Draw Marvel Characters" book I've ever laid my hands on!



5 out of 5 starsGood for beggining comic book artist
If I had to compare this book to another one I'd say it's like a new version of "How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way". This is very good introduction of comic book artist's tools and techniques. The book really encourages to start drawing. There are good examples of human figure drawing, comic characters types, basic forms, coloring, inking and more. The explanations are clear and short - It's all about drawing. Tracing papers with initial sketches included inside show how the character is built from basics which is very helpful. Although the book covers all basics the Author advises a reader to learn basic human anatomy from additional sources which is a good idea.
I like this book very much.



5 out of 5 starsI love it!
I bought it because I am absolutely terrible at drawing men, and just wanted a book of references, but I didn't expect as complete a guide as I got! It's fantastic for anyone who wants to learn to draw, or even for anyone who loves to draw and has been doing it for a while. The overlays, especially the huge two-page spread overlay, is so incredibly useful.

I fully recommend it! If you're looking for a comic drawing book, get this one!
