Recenzijas
I originally got this for my 8 year old granddaughter but found myself trying the drawings out myself! I have always struggled with getting proportions right so to have the sketches and written instructions going into great detail meant I was really happy with my finished results. There are over 50 illustrations to attempt with a variety of profiles and poses so plenty of choice. My granddaughter enjoyed the first section which concentrates on heads but found trying to attempt the whole horse a bit beyond her, but the book is aimed at 10 years and older so Im sure shell come back to it. -- Naomi Shaw * Amazon Customer * l have the dubious honour of having failed my art O-Level but this book was really easy to follow and my efforts using this book look almost professional. My grandsons loved making their pictures too -- Christine Andrews * Amazon Customer *
