Supercharge your drawings with the power of photo reference!

Almost every professional comic artist uses photo reference. Finding really good photo reference is crucial to capturing accurate lighting, foreshortening and body language in your drawings. Sure, you can surf the 'net or flip through catalogs to find a few poses . . . or consult generic photo reference books with static poses and flat lighting. But to draw a character consistently and convincingly over an entire issue or series, you need a serious reference library.

In this book, there are over 500 awesome-quality, color photos–all created specifically for you, the professional or aspiring comic artist.

Inside you'll find:

  • Handsome, muscular men and gorgeous, fit women in dynamic poses
  • Extreme angles, foreshortening and complex body mechanics
  • Poses including jumping, kicking, punching, standing, ducking, lifting, flying, sitting, smoking, drinking, kissing, screaming, laughing, cowering, shooting, sword-fighting . . . and more
  • Superior lighting that creates dramatic, muscle-revealing shadows
  • 7 fantastic art demos by professional comic artists
Unless you have a team of superheroes willing to pose for you, Comic Artist's Photo Reference: People and Poses will be the most important tool in your photo reference library. Get started today drawing the pictures that will launch or advance your comic book career!
