520 $a"Epic battle scenes beneath thundery skies, hand-to-hand combat between good and evil, the massed forces of darkness lined up against those destined to vanquish them, a lone warrior facing up to a monstrous foe, a slender young heroine wielding a magical sword: this is the stuff of some of the most exciting and dynamic art in the fantasy genre. How to Draw and Paint Fantasy Combat will show you how you can create all these scenes, and more: start the easy way by copying some of the scenes in the book, then work up your skills in the "tutorial" sections until you become great at sketching out dynamic figures from scratch, getting the hang of techniques that will stay with you as long as you keep on drawing"--Publisher's description.
