There are lots of wonderful pictures and examples. The only problem is, it goes from basic shapes and a few steps and then shows the finished product without a lot of help there. This is often where everyone needs the more help, with the finishing touches...

This artist is a great artist but not a good teacher. The steps jump from the start to a finished product with little in between. There is some good information about what to use for drawings but his instructions were lacking.

This book is very interesting and reminds us that God is there for us and he is just as fed up as we are. Changes are coming and we must keep our faith.
