Comic books in 'Glasses / Dark Glasses'

1st printing.

By David Chelsea.

Drawing spectacular landscapes, fantastic interiors, and other wildly animated backgrounds for cartoon art demands skill at constructing correct perspective to fit the confines of a comic-strip panel.

An acclaimed cartoonist now shares his trade secrets for drawing illusions of depth, vanishing points, and other aspects of convincing perspective.

Readers learn how to use light and shadow in drawing cartoon perspective; deal with overlapping, diffusion, and convergence; master one-, two-, and three-point perspective; create extra-wide angles suited to a cartoon-panel format; and find shortcuts for suggesting spatial depth.

Softcover, 176 pages, full color.
