Great Guide for Drawing Anaimals

This book gives not only the basic shapes of animals but also the way to illustrate the fur and feathers found on most animals. A good reference book as well as instruction book.

Very useful book

This book really lifted my animal-drawings several levels. I think it has very well-explained step-by-step lessons. Both on seperate parts of animals leading to a whole animal-drawing. Lee Hammond has a certain way of leading you, so you feel comfortable and yet challenged all the way.

This book will inspire you to draw more!

I read Lee Hammond's book, "Draw Real Animals" and I think it was really really worth my money. She discovered a blending technique that makes drawings look real. What's nice about this book is that she presents before and after drawings of kids (and they look real). When I first tried her technique, I got INSTANT RESULTS! Before when I used to look at a paper and try to draw, I thought, "no, this won't work" But now, every drawing I finish looks like a masterpiece! Buy this book, it will inspire you to draw more!

A great book

Lee Hammond's books stand out above the rest and this one is no exception. I'm staring at my drawing of a tiger she presents in the book. It is so good that I can't believe I did it. If you want to learn to draw realistic animals get her book.

This is great! A+++

Oh My Gosh! This book is amazing! When I had tried to draw animals in the past, I always turned up with bunches of rough, uneven lines that had a sketchy appearence. After studying this book and practicing the techniques within it, I created this beautiful drawing of a horse which I have now framed. I always get lots of great comments about it and a lot of my friends ask who I bought it from, since they can't believe that I did it! I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to improve their drawing skills, or to anyone interested in bringing out their artisticside that want a place to start.
