Fantasy Art Expedition: Draw and Paint Fantastic Creatures and Characters

Fantasy Art Expedition is a starter guide to drawing fantasy characters. It does so in a storytelling manner, as the title of the book suggest, bringing you to different places around the world and drawing the popular fantasy characters in that area. The introductory text for each area and the characters are pretty interesting.

The step-by-step lessons are easy to follow and involve drawing in pencils (no inking), digital colouring using Photoshop or painting colours with traditional medium. The instructions are clear and there are useful little tips here and there.

Well suited for beginners.
