Product Description

This complete guide shows you how to draw your characters with the right proportions and perspectives when performing all sorts of actions.

With 480 body positions, movements and hand gestures and over 1,100 illustrations to guide you, this book helps you draw your characters with the right proportions and perspectives while doing all sorts of different things:
  • Making hand gestures ranging from a peace sign to a heart to a fist bump
  • Sitting, kneeling, crouching, walking, running or jumping with legs extended
  • Putting on gloves, pushing up glasses, taking a drink or fixing their hair
  • Executing flying kicks and complicated martial arts maneuvers
  • And hundreds of other different actions and movements!
