Todays job? Design a window display board for the Forbidden Planet art and illustration guides. Nice.

One of the titles to work from was ‘Figure Drawing For All It’s Worth’, by the amazing Andrew Loomis. A stunning illustration resource for anybody who can’t draw hands… well… or any other body parts really. Alex Ross, Dick Giordano and Steve Lieber swear by it apparently. If you want to draw 1950s style smouldering babes, or have never been very sure about noses, step this way. A nice man at just here has free .pdf downloads of many of his outstanding books.

I’m hoping for a future free from hiding badly-drawn feet now.
