This 'How to Draw" book is great. If you love Mickey Mouse and Friends (or not) it's interesting. And if you like to draw and did not know how they drew these characters, it's a wonderful teaching tool.
SO excited they still make "How To Draw" books, used them when I was a kid & am so excited to be able to get some for my kids now, especially with the current cartoons out there. I think that showing kids how to "build" a cartoon is so much less defeating than just expecting them to just look at it & draw it. These books helped me so much when I was growing up & I can tell they are already helping my kids get the hang of drawing w/out too much frustration. Sometimes I'll even sit down & draw with them from the books, such an amazing way for me to bond with them. Great learning tool! Photos posted are one I did & one my 6 year old son did (he drew it kinda fast, but it's still pretty good for a beginner).
This Mickey Mouse book is much nicer than another that I have seen in that it has a line up chart to see each character next to one another for height comparison. It also has more facial expressions and attitude notes throughout. It arrived from Hippo Books 12 days early and was in pristine condition. Thank you Hippo Books :)
This is a great book. My 8 year old loved it along with his mommy. It got everyone in the house drawing. I will be buying a couple more since both of my nieces also loved it.
Our little one is 6 years old and is pretty good at drawing. He enjoys Animation Academy when we go to California Adventure. I thought he would love this book but it is a little too hard for him. The drawings are pretty complex. I have to admit I was an art major in college and some of the drawings are challenging. Maybe he will enjoy when he is a little older. For now we will stick with the Richard Scary drawing books he seems to enjoy.
As a teacher I love these types of books. They make a terrific reward for my students when their work is complete. I find that although my students are in 6th grade they are still very interested in all things Disney. This book in particular is picked up at least two or three times a day by different students. Several kids have mastered the simpler drawings, such as the feet and hands for several of the characters, but are struggling with the bodies. Typically they complete their drawings by tracing the image straight from the book. Overall the book is wonderful and serves its purpose in my classroom. If you are looking for a book that gives more specific details about techniques Disney's artists use then this book is not for you. This book is definitely entertaining and will give your student or child a basic understanding of how to create the characters they know and love.
My daughter loves to draw. I started shopping for Christmas and when I ordered this I was surprised at how fast I received it. Very good buy. I can't wait until she opens it Christmas morning. Thank you!
A good example of how this art is so piece meal is this book. The goal of this book is not help an artist that wants to draw and learn Disney's techniques, uses of materials and layout. Instead it is to fracture a presentation of this art into tiny pieces the art for others to copy.
