Unleash the Beasts
"For millennia historians, artists and scientists have
chronicled their ideas and discoveries of mythological and magical
monsters in encyclopedias known as bestiaries. From Asia to
America, Japan to the jungles of South Africa, the vast menagerie
of exotic and legendary creatures has populated the imaginations of
all cultures for centuries."
Beautifully illustrated and fantastically detailed, "Dracopedia:
The Bestiary" is a modern, but no less unsettling reimagining of
the ancient version. It is an A-to-Z artist's guide to animals of
the legendary world. Some, like the griffin and yeti, may be
familiar to you. Others--like the enigmatic questing beast and
ferocious manticore--may seem new and strange. Some may even haunt
your dreams. Inside the bestiary, you will find:
- Secrets of each animal's evolution--origins, habitat, anatomy,
diet and more.
- Fantastic illustrations created using pencil sketches and
digital coloring.
- Four-stage demonstrations taking you from concept and design to
under-painting and finishing details.
By drawing on the forms and features of more pedestrian animals,
you'll learn how to give shape to the bizarre creatures that roam
the depths of your imagination, adding to the bestiary of the ages.
