That I think will complete the book. There's nothing on bones and you won't learn how muscle works, but this isn't an anatomy reference book. That said, having an anatomy reference book to go along will be extremely helpful. Let us help you learn how to get started!

And if you KNOW Hampton, explain to him he needs to do it. You may review all the shipping options for your address at checkout prior to finalizing your order.
Hi, is it the book on
Not only that, Michael Hampton also builds onto to those simplified mannequins with lots of clearly illustrated muscles. The muscle groups are visualised very distinctly in the examples. They are colour-coded to bring attention those that affect form when the body is in different positions. One thing that's missing is the mention of figure proportions, like how many heads tall a body, length of an arm, etc.

The treatment of the leg is a bit neglected, tough, and sometimes, his mode of joining muscle to bone just doesn't feel right (external oblique to thorax, for example). That's the problem with simplification, I guess. The many illustrated examples are aimed at helping students develop a feel for the form and volume of figures they draw. To that aspect, I think it does a very good job. We have over 27 years of experience packing and shipping collectible books.

A must for any illustrators library. @EliI would guess it's the 2nd edition since it was out of stock before.

At least with Vilppu he breaks down gesture drawing a bit but even his explanation is inadequte. Michael Hampton is an artist and long-time educator in the fields of figure drawing, anatomy, and and two- dimensional design. It looks better than most figure drawing books as far as I can tell but thats not saying much since most of them are abysmal, it seems that artists are just really poor at explaining their techniques.. Buy it, if you paint, draw, or 3D anything remotely human or non human in your art...you have to learn to draw the freaking body, face, hand, foot, all of it.

It doesn't matter if you can draw or not, with practice you can be the best. Learn with us, the future artists of reddit. The book does have head drawing but the focus is on the form rather than the details of the features, although the examples do show the details.
Michael Hampton Figure Drawing Design And Invention
It still covers enough for for anyone to draw a decent head. The approach covered is primarily concerned with the use of line, development of form, and the simplified design of anatomy. It doesn't go into contour drawing, shading and expression. This book is back in stock with a 2nd edition printing.
Reviews
The cover (shown below) is different and some drawings were replaced with new ones. @DanielYou can try contacting the author Michael Hampton at figuredrawing.info or see if there are stocks on his website. I'd say your verdict of 4.5 stars is accurate, from first glance. Hampton has put together quite an impressive method of building the figure. He takes a lot from Bammes' principles, and mostly, he succeeds in simplifying them enormously.
If you do not study and learn well this basic skill and EXTREMELY important skill...you will always look like a poorly skilled amateur artist....you know what i mean. Besides you can then amaze your friends and family with your ability to draw a likeness...a easy feat once you understand what to look for. The use of simple geometric shapes as drawing guides are simple to understand.
