Product Description: From Frank Cho, the award-winning creator of Liberty Meadows and Zombie King, comes Frank Cho Women: Selected Drawings and Illustrations. This 112-page collection will showcase Cho's past and present illustrations and you will see why he's considered one of the top modern masters of the female form.
NICE collection of drawings A nice well printed collection of drawings, some nudity though so stay away if that offends.
Black and White! This book just have one problem... When you see the picture from the cover, you will wait for this beautiful color inside. But the fact is... just Black and White inside.
An excellent book. Frank Cho is one of my favorite artists. I started reading Frank Cho's Liberty Meadows comic strip and I really enjoyed his unique mix of "cartoony" animals and realistic humans. It reminded me of some of Bill Watterson's Sunday cartoons where he would represent Calvin as a realistically drawn adult.
This book, though, is not exclusively a Liberty Meadows book. It consists of figure studies, some nudes and a number of comic book covers. Most of the art is shown in finished form, but more interesting is where Mr. Cho shows the progression from rough pencil drawing to fully inked drawing. Mr. Cho is a truly talented artist and I look forward to seeing what he produces next.
SHWING! Frank Cho's art is truly amazing. Each page is a single illustration of a beautiful woman and they get better as you turn each page. Plenty of cheesecake to salivate over.
This book under-performs. I love Frank Cho's work. He has a crisp style; his lines flex and curve perfectly. It's hard to think of anyone outside of Dave Stevens who shows as much grace. However...
I dinged it one star for not having any color plates. All of the pages are black and white. An uncensored version of the cover is on the interior flap at a greatly reduced size. Compare this to "The Fantastic Art of Frank Frazetta" nos. 1 - 5 which not only had color plates but also details/enlargements of the paintings. Same with the three Frank Kelly Freas books: many color plates. The cover painting is so good that I was enormously disappointed when I openned the book and found only black and white sketches and finished drawings.
I dinged it another star for having almost no text to accompany the drawings and the small amount of text was insipid and patronizing. Little fragments like "note the thickness at her ankles. But not too thick," and "nice long calves," and "nice full hips."
The sketches and drawings are all outstanding, but not worth collecting in a hardcover book. It will make a good softcover book.
