Great Job, 12. Dezember 1999

I have been in the graphics and cartooning market for a long time. I also teach illustration and cartooning (privately & at varies schools and originizations) and have been doing so for about 8 years. I am always on the look-out for books I can refer to people/students. There are very few on the maerket which I will recommend. Most books start out correctly, however on page 2 it jumps about 2 years in knowlege and skill. This book takes it step by step and is a valuable reference source.

       Worth more than 5 stars, 20. Oktober 1999

Jack did it again, this book is perfect for anyone wanting to draw realistic and believeable people. This was my first book by Jack that after I read it, I wanted to get his other books! Topics range from drawing the head, the arms, legs, hands, feet, shoulders, and LOTS more! It even goes on with helpful hints when drawing clothing, male / female differences, surface anatomy, and other very useful tips. Jack Hamm got it all in this book, once you read it you'll see why it gets the praise it recieves!

       Best book on figure and portrait drawing at any price., 22. September 1999

Not only the best value, this is the best book available on figure and portrait drawing at any price. Each page is packed with examples and principles of drawing the human shape. Artist's anatomy, sample line renderings, and practice exercises...this book has it all. This is not a pretty coffee-table book, but if you really want to learn to draw the face and figure, this book will keep you busy for a long time. Master Jack Hamm's exercises, and you will really know how to draw.

       Great drawing book, 19. September 1999

This is a great book, definitely worth the money for anyone who wants to draw humanoids.

       This book will teach you something!!!, 27. Juli 1999

I have been illustrating for 16 years and all I did was browse through this book and I learned something! That's how good this book is! Detailed and easy, this book has something for every one. That goes for all of Jack Hamm's books.
