In Morpho: Muscled Bodies, artist and teacher Michel Lauricella presents a unique approach to learning to draw the human body. Bodybuilder athletes offer us an ideal repertoire of shapes and proportions for the representation of the superheroes and superheroines we find in comic books, animated films, cinema, and video games. This book is for those who are interested in the design, modeling, and animation of such characters, whether they're mythical, realistic, or fantastic.
Geared toward artists of all levels--from beginners through professionals--this handy, pocket-sized book will help spark your imagination and creativity.
Michel Lauricella is a French artist who has worked at various fine arts studios in Paris and at Gobelins. He currently teaches at Lisaa and Fabrica 114 and is the author of various drawing manuals.
