Brush up on the latest digital painting techniques with the fifth volume in this essential series for any digital artist.
"This series of books always had an impressive pedigree and this volume carries on that tradition in fine form, covering a huge range of topics from weapon design to characters, monsters and environments. Any artist, whatever their level, will find much to inspire them here. As a contributor to a previous volume myself, my aim was not only to create inspiring images, but also provide the tools to create them yourself. I'm happy to report that this volume supplies that in spades."
Ian McQue - Art Director/Concept Artist
"Not many art books offer such a detailed insight into other artists's workflows. You might be a beginner looking for a step-by-step tutorial, or a professional in search of a variety of tips and tricks to speed up your painting process; either way, you will not be disappointed by the inspiration this book offers."
Blaz Porenta - Concept Artist at Outfit 7
"Another beautifully produced book from 3DTotal Publishing, bursting at the seams with valuable advice, tips, tricks and inspiration. I've found the Digital Painting Techniques series to be amazingly helpful and essential reading for many aspiring artists and professionals alike. The latest volume is no exception!â€
