Geared toward doodlers, cartoonists, illustrators, and others looking to improve their craft, this book does what it says: provides step-by-step instructions for drawing people in various poses. Most begin with a rough scale and basic form to block out the shape, followed by increasing attention to details. Lecouffe ("10 Step Drawing" series) provides tips regarding which elements will be included in the final drawing, so that readers don't get bogged down in details that will not be visible at the end. Each step includes an illustration so that readers can follow along and emulate the work. The rigid 10-step structure means that some steps include a number of distinct changes to the drawing. Those looking to improve their understanding of light, shading, or composition to create original work may want to look for a more comprehensive manual. However, for readers who just want help drawing people in a variety of poses, following clear examples, this book might work. VERDICT Like paint-by-numbers but for drawing figures, this book will be helpful for budding cartoonists and those who want to draw people without a lot of instruction on technique.
