that I just backed on Kickstarter.
First, How to Think When You Draw.
Which the author politely asked me (and everybody else who backed it) to repost/blog about on social media. I like his style, so I am. I first saw his stuff on Pinterest where people had pinned lots of his drawing tutorials. Very nice, short, to-the-point, purposeful and well thought out one or two panel tutorials.
Then I found out he was making them into a book. Which I promptly got on the email list for. He sent me an email before the launch day asking me to spread the word. Which I am finally doing. Sorry Lorenzo, I was trying to beat a deadline and couldn’t get to this until now. Hey, there are still 20 days left, I’m not that late.
Go to his blog, his deviant art page, and the Kickstarter to find out more. Lorenzo has done multiple book projects; both the regular publisher route and the Kickstarter route, and the book layout is all done and ready to go to the printer. So this is a Kickstarter I feel confident will go off without a hitch. Looking forward to receiving the book in my own little hands, and until then I can placate myself by doodling along to the deviant art/blog stuff.
After I backed How to Think When You Draw, Kickstarter recommended this other drawing book to me: Draw like a Boss . Which I hadn’t previously heard of. So I looked at it and realized that I really liked that book too, soooo I backed it. I like the idea that they gave it a sort of role playing game system to make it less intimidating and more fun to learn to draw.
This is the “final printing Kickstarter” so I guess a lot of other people liked the game format idea coupled with some pretty heavy duty classic masterworks art techniques. Since they’ve already had multiple printings of this title due to heavy demand, this project should go smoothly as well. I chose the sewn hardcover version for durability.
So go to the link, maybe you’ll like it too. Back the projects, don’t back the projects; it’s up to you. I just know that I’m glad when people let me know about interesting things so I like to do the same.
Oh, Last Word: Don’t go getting all spoiled just because I posted twice this week. If there weren’t time-sensitive things happening you would not have gotten Any posts this week. Remember I was trying to meet a deadline. Which I did. So There!
