I recently bought this book and I can't find a proper way of practicing this, it seems like this is a demo book or some shit like that.

You may want to expand on your post and to explain what's bad about it because it's very likely none of us have ever seen it.

I'm the spirit of 2010. I have never seen this book talked about back then.

>comics
Why do /ic/fags ever think they are going to make it in the comic industry? You realize it takes like 10 years to be competent enough to create any industry strandard comic work right? And even then the comic industry is dry as a fucking lake now. By the time you finally make it no one will give 2 shits about your little shoymale shit. Get on the anime bandwagon before its too late bitch.

Well, you'll see...
The book is about composition is n comic and illustration.
Actually it's a pretty famous book.

I thought here on /ic/ I could find guys that found that book useful to increase their skills.

I read it for reference and a theory behind composition, then I started to copy composition from everywhere with that theory in mind.

>> No.3824208

The book is for you to get the idea of why things work anon and how does it work. It’s not a homework book. It’s a explanatory book. Think for yourself. If you think of drawing (and specially composition) as music that you can learn just from repeating the same excercises over again without some thinking behind it then you may as well play piano.

Also wtf if you read the whole book the beginning literally has a guide on how to do composition.

Think of it like a study guide to supplement your own exercises.

Tbh I use it as a reference of what not to do with compositions. They're all so gormless, predictable, boring and, quite frankly, amateur.

I've _seen_ the cover in dozens of "essential /ic/ books" pics but I've never _read_ it and that probably goes for most people on /ic/. I'll probably never read it in the future either. Which doesn't say much about /ic/'s quality since it's just a book. You're the real faggot here, and the guy I replied to of course.
