Beginner's Guide to Creating Portraits: Learning the essentials & developing your own style

3D Total Publishing truly has an impressive book collection. I didn't know one could get love bombed by books but it really happened to me, cross my heart and hope to die!

Their collections have outstanding quality, not only in reference to content, layout and design but also in the physical quality of the books themselves.

I find their content to be spot on and relevant to art today, as a multi layered medium that ties together hands on craftsmanship with the complexity of high level digital artistry. The books are rich in the “know how” and give a pallet of styles from a collection of professional artists.

I was surprised by the level of detail around their products, many books included a complimentary high quality print of the artist work, and some books were autographed by the artist themselves. What a treat!

Their customer service is impeccable and personal. I was really aware that there is a human on the other side, funny how the absence of AI can make a human feel valued.

Thank you for this book. It's overwhelming at first, but every chapter shows new ways to improve your portrait-drawing-skills and not only in one style! I particularly liked that you added a portrait and its explanation by Aveline Stokart, since her art is not the "traditional" portrait, but equally beautiful in her own style.

I like the book! It is massive and contains a lot of different styles, approaches and structure on building a portrait. It contains so much information, that you can use this for years to come, building your skill!

This book is amazing. It has all you need to learn how to draw portraits (with every medium and style) and how to manage lights, darkness and colors. 10/10

Awesome!
