Card Artist Work: From Dragon And Mecha Design To Character Design

Review(0)

Categories:Design Resources

The first and definitive art book and illustration technique book by Toshiaki Takayama, who has worked on numerous card illustrations, is now available!

Card artist Toshiaki Takayama's work began with Dragon Drive 10 years ago.
At first, drawing was done using Liquitex, but now it is digital drawing, and from the drawing method of painting inside the linkages of the lines, to the current drawing method of boldly painting the area without the links.
The trajectory of changes in the way he draws continues to evolve into a super-realistic world that is more elaborate, profound, and full of three-dimensionality, backed by Toshiaki Takayama's reliable drawing ability.
However, even though I simply had "certain drawing ability'', it was not something I could easily acquire...

This book is an art book and technique book that reveals Toshiaki Takayama's attitude as a worker: "What do I do if I don't aim for the top as a card artist?'' as well as his way of life as an artist, his way of thinking, and his drawing methods and techniques using the keywords of dragons and creatures, male and female characters, and mecha and robots.
A rich collection of beautiful illustrations by Mr. Duel Masters, Sengoku Taisen, Lord of Vermilion, Battle Spirits, and other major card games, along with tips on how to draw coolly.
A must-see book for those who aim to become illustrators!
