A complete sketching solution for beginners, hobbyists and artists looking to brush up on their drawing skills, with tuition by pro artists.

The Sketch Workshop is 3dtotal's answer to the question: 'Why can't I draw like that?' Designed for beginners and hobbyists, it's a fun and innovative way for people of all ages to find the inspiration to pick up a pencil and draw. Different to other books in the 3dtotal range, it is 50-percent a workbook in which you draw and 50-percent a project guide with instructional text and reference images for drawing anatomy and characters. Created by a number of top industry artists, they share their tips and tricks and help you grasp the fundamental elements needed to craft beautiful sketches.

Inside, you’ll find pro tips for improving your drawing techniques, plus references and templates to help you hone your craft.

Very practical do-it-yourself book

This sketchbook covers both the main shapes and the details you need for character design. I like how the various chapters make the reader aware of how the chosen details support the background story of the sketched characters. The templates let you practice on your own, while pointing out tips and tricks along the way. All in all, definitely a nice, low-priced startingkit for aspiring character designers.

Highly recommended and at a great price

I would recommend this book to anyone looking to further their knowledge of character design. There is a good range of styles. The explanations are clear and to the point. I particularly like how the artists breakdown areas of their work and explain why it is drawn in that fashion. Highly recommended and at a great price.

educational method

Found this one very interesting, different than other method of sketching.I am a miniature painter, and need some more help to learn how to draw some item... characters, weapons, landscape...found it well done, with lessons, and drawing area on the same book.
