What overflight

Apart from the first pages paraphrasing the basic rule of human anatomy (muscles, proportions, as much knowledge as we can find the rest in many other works ...), the content remains poor: Many drawings heterogeneous, with joggers, wrestlers, Zulu, hikers that make merry messy ... and very little explanation. Only good points. Representation on pages 6, 8 and 9 of the articulation points of the body by small circles connected by the guidelines of the muscular system (the "Directors coefficients" This is what the author should have develop in his subsequent drawings, this would have a little matter) and the bottom of each page, the postures of the character movement, represented step by step
For the rest, it's really more than average. One learns to nothing. The author is content to add small notes gleaned cookie cutter, no guiding principle, basic reminders reproduced to copy and paste (On the laws of perspective, lighting, all that could be found elsewhere ...) and sometimes completely out of the subject (as we important that "comics" Americans excel in the art of shortcut view or there is more contrast on the belly of a runner who were overweight). Many details without interest, therefore. In the words of a customer (zapiros, about another article), one finds here "a lot of tricks, none will be really usable."

I found the book very disappointing, especially as the coverage seemed promising. I feel that the author wanted to save too detailed explanation of a complex subject, providing a wealth of drawings mostly not very interesting, with tips for the less sketchy. There are many accessories, tracksuits, shorts, bags, shirts, hats, utensils in-do you-in-voila, perhaps to furnish poverty ... but comments it tells us nothing. It finds no technical basis proper, even if the book has a structure and if it addresses various body movements. The rules that govern interactions between antagonistic muscle groups, for example, are virtually not discussed here. The technical basis of which the designer would need are ignored. Only bits of explanations. Which would have the interest to the drawings scattered throughout the work, it would show every time at work mechanisms invisible to the naked eye, how they fit together, they counterbalance , they "interact" (with diagrams of cinematic genre, to speak on "technological" language, the author has started doing page 6, 7 and 8, before stopping abruptly) ... instead of dwell on pants and jackets yourself floating. Gallery people strolling page after page like in a supermarket is also more like a sociological inventory of the contemporary world (with some musketeers and gladiators here and there to make more picturesque) only to strictly technical illustrations. So in the matter, I think we can do much better to treat a topic of this magnitude.
