I received this book from a Goodreads giveaway. It is a huge hit in our household as my daughters are fighting over it. The book makes the drawing look easy. I'm even going to try to draw some. A great book for everyone learning to draw.

the images to draw are very cool but a little beyond my skill level. There is also a good selection of different creatures to choose from including cute and scary

How to Draw Fantasy Creatures: Dragons, fairies, vampires and monsters in simple steps, by Paul Bryn Davies, Jim McCarthy
Some weird and funny creatures here. The only problem is that these illustrations are so detailed it is almost impossible to learn anything in just 5 steps other than replicate & imitate.

I won How to Draw Fantasy Creatures by Paul Bryn Davies and Jim McCarthy from Goodreads.

Imagine creating a fun, personal comic book for your child or grandchild. Get creative with Paul Bryn Davies and Jim McCarthy's How to Draw Fantasy Creatures. This inspiring book is broken into four categories: Dragons, Fairies, Vampires, and Monsters. Each section offers a variety of characters in varying styles. For beginning artists, each character starts with a very basic shape upon which the artist draws. For more advanced artists, the final, colorful artwork is sure to inspire more creativity.
How to Draw Fantasy Creatures is perfect for anyone who wants to create his own artwork in this genre.
I am excited about exploring the other How to Draw books in this series!
