I had quite a bit of luck with shipping when it came to all I've ordered. The art of Blizzard even went to India and came back to me lol, there were some good samaritans in India post office I guess:)

Amazon and book depository and usually the same prince if I factor the shipping. The difference is that amazon is using a carrier, and not the mail system. Brazilian mail is eating up international orders, so Amazon it will be

If it can make a complete retard like me to put stuff in perspective and do enviro/architecture and backgrounds that make sense, then I need to buy it, even for like 200e

yup, I second the Framed Ink one. And books are so expensive here in Brazil that amazon is a blessing

Ok, if I think rationally, I would say that, as I virtually don't put my character in any space whatsoever, How to draw would be the best next buy

Now I'm looking at How to draw and I get all those ideas about darksiders artbook and stuff like that:)

It's hard, I need infinite moneyz:) I mean, I wanted to buy imaginative realism last time and I ended up with some artbooks instead, life is pain:)

i think its a good inversion, james gurney books are a bit pricey too, but totally worth it

28 Jan 23:09

Ah, it's hardback

28 Jan 23:09

28 Jan 23:08

I expected it to be cheaper, I mean, I don't know anything about it, pages and that kind of stuff, but I somehow expected it:) Maybe because those fancy artbooks cost twentyfive-ish...

28 Jan 23:02

Well, it's a bit pricey lol:) at least on bookdepository

28 Jan 23:01

Yes, I know:) I just wanted to point that out in case the book is leaning on presenting his artwork. Since it doesn't, yes, it's a win win:)

It's not about being a fan of his work - he is VERY knowledgeable and an awesome teacher. So its a win a win there :)

it also has 8 hours of video content

28 Jan 22:54

That does sound like something that could be relevant to my interests

28 Jan 22:51

EduardoGaray

i had to say its worth every penny

28 Jan 22:51

EduardoGaray

the book starts with the very basics and goes more and more complex

28 Jan 22:51

EduardoGaray

its really good to get started in drawing things in perspective

I keep hearing that Scott's book is like wonderful:) I assume it's about putting things in perspective. Is it really that good? I am not a fan of his work personally. What does the book offer specifically, I mean, what areas and in what way?

28 Jan 22:21

EduardoGaray

--

oh well, i have enough material for years just with how to draw alone
