Advice and instruction from a leading fantasy illustrator guides
art students who intend to pursue careers illustrating computer
games, childrens books, graphic novels, and other related
media. This books opening chapter analyzes traditional
architectural shapes that include arches, columns, towers,
vaults, and buttresses. Chapters that follow apply principles of
lighting, shadow, and perspective to the architectural forms,
and discuss ways of creating surface textures and adding
dramatic atmosphere to illustrations. Readers are then guided
through a series of projects of increasing complexity in which
they create illustrations dominated by fantasy castles, palaces,
dungeons, and more. Here is comprehensive instruction in the techniques required for
capturing fantastic buildings, alien architecture, and alternate realities. More than 250
enlightening color illustrations.
