Product Description

How to Draw a Dragon: "Cautiously approach the dragon, offer it a piece of candy or a little sister, and draw while it happily munches away."From the artist behind the wildly popular NeonDragonArt.com, DragonArt will help you create mythical beasts that awe, delight, and disturb the sweet dreams of little ones. Armed only with your trusty pencil and ink pen, you will begin your artistic quest by conquering a super-easy dragon that even the densest of wyvern could draw. With pace quickened by this cool achievement, you shall forge bravely onward to discover simple secrets and spiffy tricks for making your creature friendly or fierce, sorrowful or cynical . . . drawing them from all different perspectives, in flight or at rest (so vain, those dragons—they love to strike a pose!) . . . and incorporating various styles of heads, limbs, wings, horns, frills, scales, tails and other details to make your particular beast original, believable and so darn groovy.Because dragons enjoy having others around to terrorize, disembowel and occasionally hang out with, this book will also teach you how you to populate your alternate universe with a whole cast of fantastic creatures, including mythical griffins, guardian gargoyles and deadly basilisks.All this within the curiously compelling, beautifully beastly, and brightly colored pages you hold in your hands, which by now are no doubt trembling with keen anticipation. So quit dragon your feet! (Ugh, wyrms hate puns!) Buy this book now and make your wildest, wickedest, fire-breathingest fantasies come true!

Format:Paperback
I'd wanted to learn to draw dragons and other fantasy creatures for ages, and when I got this book for my birthday I was thrilled, but when I started to work through it, it was better than I imagined as, on top of the step by step break down of how to draw various different dragons, features of dragons and other fantasy creatures, I was very pleased to find tips on how to draw the different things, and also how to make your own unique pictures, making it ideal for both those interested in just drawing the dragons and for those who are more interested in the technical side of things, such as bone structure, muscles etc. I would reccomend this book to those who like fantasy creatures and to those who consider themselves as a good or bad artist (myself being in the latter category!) You will find yourself drawing good dragons in no time!

A Dream of a book 30 Dec 2005
Format:Paperback
This is an absolute must for anyone interested in drawing dragons and other fantasy creatures. The drawings quide you through everything step by step and really inspire you to create your own fantastic creatures. I can't wait to get started. I really recommend this book to anyone with a multitude or, like me, a minimum amount of talent.

Format:Paperback
I have always been good at copying other peoples dragons, but when it came to creating my own I found it difficult to make them look realistic (as much as you can make something that's fantasy look real).

However, this book is great as it takes you through each stage step by step, allowing you to learn through practice. I am still amazed at how easy it is to create your own realistic dragons, and other mythological creatures, and I now wonder how I ever found it difficult. I guess the old saying is true - "It's easy when you know how!"

I would recommend this book to anyone wishing to get their own fantasy world down on paper. You will want to get the paper and pencils ready before you open the front page!
