Next, soak up Brett's unique way of building up detail and interest in drawings, and how he researches and implements unique and fascinating elements that catch the eye. As the book progresses, build up confidence in tackling tricky tasks such as creating perspective, drawing hands and poses, and succeeding at effective colour and lighting. All of this can be absorbed at a glance thanks to the visually engrossing exercises, meaning you can get going as soon as you open the cover.

Those looking to improve their drawing skills can follow the book from start to finish, enjoying ongoing improvement and ending with a huge boost in confidence and talent when the final page is reached. This is an unmissable opportunity to have an expert's knowledge at your fingertips for years to come.
