Cartoon Animation with Preston Blair, Revised Edition!: Learn techniques for drawing and animating cartoon characters (Collector's Series)

Great information about this subject and explains all their little important details.This is very helpful for all people who’s ant to study and learn anmiation.

I love this illustrator and style of animation! Bought this for my son who loves to draw. The pictures and information is great!

Purchased this as a gift for my daughter that is getting a degree in visual arts animation and she absolutely loves this book. Was a favorite amongst over 2 dozen other gifts!

Great for beginning animation practice

I wanted to get the book again because was lost while moving,I like this high end magazine format ,also the seller sent a thank you note which was a nice detail. The book arrived a bit bent(not too much though, was sent to the other side of USA ,understandable) great basic product if you want to start or keep doing animation .Thank you!

I love everything about this book and it is for all ages. Who love to draw! I had a first edition, but they have combined multiple books into an anniversary edition. I highly recommend!

I highly recommend the kindle edition. It's so much better I know many complain about the pictures looking smaller. In the kindle edition you can zoom on the pictures and they aren't blurry at all. Plus I think the kindle edition has more pages than the physical copy.

Traditional animation techniques are covered in this book. With the exception of some of the cartoon features which are quite dated, basic movement doesn't change so it's exactly what I was looking for. I don't know anything else to compare it to because I just knew I couldn't go wrong with an oldie but goodie.

This book is perfect! Very good condition. Feels like it was made yesterday.

Good book for learning and helped with uni study’s

見ての通りカートゥーンの描き方の本です。 擬人化された動物やそのまま動物そのもの、デフォルメの強いディズニー的な小人や子供キャラ、そんな感じがほとんどです。イケメンや美女の描き方は一切載ってません。 とにかく動きのある絵・表情のある絵を描くのが下手糞で苦手で藁にも縋る思いで買いましたがそれに関しては完璧と言えるほど素晴らしいです。どうしたら勢いが出るのか、動きのある絵になるのか、力の伝わり方が見えるのか、どういう表情になるのか とても素晴らしく分かり易いです。 もちろんすべて英語ですが絵だけでも説明が上手くて十分わかりますし、なんなら文章自体そんな難しい事はなくなんとなくわかります。 本来はたぶんアニメーション用の本ではありますが、イラストの教科書にも十分なります。 動物を描くのがヘタ、動きのある絵がヘタ、表情のある絵がヘタ、そんなことで悩んでいる人は一読の価値ありかと思います。もちろん絵柄や目指すものの方向性にもよりますが。 追記 買ってから気がついたのですが、日本語訳版が『アニメーション・イラスト入門』というタイトルでマール社から出てます 表紙全く違うから気がつかなかった…
