Summary: Great Book
Comment: I bought this book for my 10 year old son who loves star wars and loves to draw; he hasn't been able to put it down. The book is very explicit and shows you in a very graphic manner how to draw characters, machines, and others. Very good indeed I'm glad we bought it.

Summary: Not as good as the Youtube videos
Comment: The quality of the Youtube videos surpasses the quality of the book; expectations for the book after watching the videos weren't met. Ideas for future additions might include expanding on Mr. Bush's acrylic painting techniques (future book, perhaps:>); you may enjoy the rudimentary instruction, but in my opinion it didn't align with the superior instruction given during the videos.

Summary: High quality book with lots of information
Comment: I purchased this book for my nephew because he loves to draw and is a Star Wars fan. I was amazed at the quality!

Spiral bound, hardcover, with transparent flyleaf pages for many of the illustrations, this is way more than I expected for my $14.

Our nephew loves the book, and really enjoyed showing me some drawings he's made using the suggestions in the book. Our other two nephews who don't draw also really liked reading it just for the 'insider' Star Wars info.

A great find!

Summary: Tough for kids...
Comment: I bought this for my son's eight year old birthday because he loves the How to Draw books. This one is the hardest I have ever seen. It's is aimed at a teenager in terms of drawing ability.
