Inside you will find simple illustrations that cover the necessities of drawing cool stuff. Specific exercises are provided that offer step-by-step guidelines for drawing a variety of subjects.

The varieties of texture and pattern that can be included in an artwork offer another layer of interest and depth to a design.
