by Bryan Baugh (Author)
Swords and Sorcery is the seventh title in the popular fantasy comics series. Baugh provides an overview of successful fantasy adventure comics and the artists who drew them. The book then goes on to provide step-by-step instruction on how to draw the various characters and creatures found in these imaginary realms, with the underlying anatomy of a warrior to the underlying mythology of today's stories. The characters fall into 3 standard types: Heroic types: knights in armour, wizards, warrior maidens, great kings, magical princesses; the evil variety: the dark sorcerers, the orcs (or orks) and trolls and black knights; and the fantastical creatures and mythical beasts: the unicorns, dragons, giants, goblins, ogres and demons that fantasy fans just can't get enough of!
