Product Description: Traditional anatomy books aren't enough. Comic artists need a reference that covers the kinds of dynamic poses and lighting effects that make comics extraordinary. The third book/CD-ROM set in the best-selling Comic Artist's Photo Reference series, Men & Boys features over 1,000 photos of males of varying ages, ethnicities and body types in poses designed specifically for the comic or fantasy artist. Artists will also learn from the pros in four step-by-step lessons based on photos from the book. The companion CD-ROM includes photos as well as short videos and bonus material.
Comic Artist's Photo Reference: Men and Boys (Comic Artists Photo Reference) This is another fine product from author Buddy Scalera. He included a nice assortment of models and the poses are very useful. Since I've purchased Scalera's previous books, I knew what to expect, and I wasn't disappointed. This book will be used often.
A Super Book for Super Hero Artists I am one of the models who worked on the book, and I can't tell you how excited I am with the final product. First it is awesome to see the photo of me on the cover draw masterfully into an action hero. I have several friends who are artists, and they tell me this fills a need where other photo reference books fall short. The action poses, and expressions are just what comic book artists need, for the cross between realism and fantasy that is the art if the comic. Mr. Scalera not only supplies a wide range of high quality photos, but also demonstrates how to use and combine them for professional quality comic book artwork. A great tool for pros and aspiring artists alike!
