Drawing: As Taught by Bart Sears
about 5 years ago – Wed, Mar 20, 2019 at 05:29:56 PM

Comrades, as some of you may know, Bart Sears recently launched his Kickstarter for Drawing Powerful Heroes: Brutes and Babes Volume 2, and today is the last day to get in on the action!

Drawing Powerful Heroes is a collection of classic lessons culled from the pages of Bart’s How to Draw column in Wizard Magazine. Each lesson has been revised and updated for this amazing collection. This second volume includes lessons on anatomy, finishing styles, breaking into comics, and much more, and even has five brand new lessons created exclusively for this edition.

The campaign offers a ton of great rewards, including original art from artists including David Finch, Meghan Hetrick, Aaron Lopresti, Tim Seeley, Robert Atkins, Graham Nolan, Andy Smith, and of course Bart himself. 

If you’ve ever wanted to learn to draw, or even if you’re a writer with a passion for visual storytelling, this is the book for you! Pledge before it’s too late! http://bit.ly/DPHV2KS
