Chris Patmore - All books by this author

Graphic artists who open this scintillating tutorial will discover the beauty secrets of cartoon bombshells, then learn how to give them active roles in memorable stories. Step-by-step illustrations show the basics of female anatomy and proportion, different ways to render poses and body shapes, and methods to exaggerate or simplify female shapes for special effects. Artists will learn to create convincing drawings of seductive supergirls, raunchy action heroines, sexy cyberpunks, feisty Manga babes, and many other types. Instruction includes methods for drawing attractive facial features, head-turning hairstyles, and fantasy wardrobes featuring eye-popping metal bikinis and skin-tight jumpsuits. The author also presents a historical overview of females in animation and comics, from Betty Boop to Tank Girl. He goes on to emphasize and explain the importance of storytelling in art and discusses ways to develop story concepts before starting to draw. Chapters that follow focus on—
  • Choosing art equipment—pencils, papers, brushes, inks, paints, and pixels
  • Selecting appropriate drawing styles to match characters’ personalities
  • Rendering different feminine types, from goddess to the girl next door
The book concludes with a brief survey of the business of commercial art, with advice on how and where to sell finished work, how to draw characters to order, and how artists can protect their rights. More than 200 flamboyant, full-color illustrations.
