Higher Academy of Fantasy. The guide to draw fantastic worlds. Hou D.

You are not just a complete allowance in the world of fantasy, but also an amazing artbook with fascinating illustrations and invaluable knowledge that the author decided to share. It tells everything that I would like to know about the fantasy world: what the first sketch of the old fish and black sleds looked like, how details on knightly armor are born, how landscapes and entire locations in fantastic worlds are created.

The author of the book, John Hou, is a professional artist and author of children's books. Among his works you can find illustrations for the book and movie trilogy of Tolkien and the books of Robin Hobb, the concept art of the films of Peter Jackson, Guillermo Del Toro and Andrew Adamson and much more.
