Product Description

Product Description

At last–the first guide to drawing comics digitally! Artists! Gain incredible superpowers...with the help of your computer! The DC Comics Guide to Digitally Drawing Comics shows how to give up pencil, pen, and paper and start drawing dynamic, exciting comics art entirely with computer tools. Author Freddie E Williams is one of DC Comics' hottest artists and a leader in digital penciling and inking–and here, in clear, step-by-step directions, he guides readers through every part of the digital process, from turning on the computer to finishing a digital file of fully inked comic art, ready for print. Creating a template, sketching on the computer, penciling, and finally inking digitally are all covered in depth, along with bold, timesaving shortcuts created by Williams, tested by years of trial and error. Step into the digital age, streamline the drawing process, and leap over the limitations of mere physical drawing materials with The DC Guide to Digitally Drawing Comics.

The book focuses on the method of producing a digital comic book rather than drawing techniques. There are lots of other 'How to draw' books to help depending on what style you want to use.
The tips, tricks and digital/pencil hybrid processes are brilliant and explained superbly. The underlying techniques can be used with other image software but the book relates to Photoshop.
It's not the magic key for producing digital comics (if there is one I'd like a link to it please) but it will put you in a much better position to create good-looking comics quicker.
The book is aimed quite high so beginner's might struggle although it might teach good habits sooner.

The title of the book gives a pretty good idea of what it is about. After you read it, you really feel you can do what the author tells that he does from the starting point to the finished product. The explanations are thorough, but written in an understandable way, as if the author himself were talking to you while showing what he does on the computer. The book is well structured and full of figures, so that you know exactly where you can find everything and how things should look like.
