Description
Book Introduction
Using various illustration techniques such as strength of line, light and shade, texture, and contrast
Let's draw a picture with more detail than just color!

"Black and White Illustration Techniques" teaches you how to add life to your drawings and express details without using color.
It shows the process of completing an illustration, from a rough sketch that expresses the strength of lines to shape description, color ratio, shadows, and point colors, and explains the techniques used in each process, so beginners can learn a systematic process, and those who are already drawing illustrations can learn more detailed expression techniques.
For those who want to draw illustrations but are unsure of where to start, or who want to draw better illustrations without awkwardness, 『Black and White Illustration Techniques』 will be a great guide.
I hope this book will help you experience the charm of illustration and improve your drawing skills.
