内容説明
Written and illustrated by a former Marvel Comics' artist with brilliant hand-done images throughout, this graphic handbook of cartooning is without equal. It's simply larger, better illustrated, and more in depth than any similar title on the market. In elaborate detail, it focuses on superheroes and their atmospheric world filled with speed and movement. Every aspect of creating cartoons is taught: the supplies, developing mood, and the techniques that endow characters with personality. See how to draw a variety of faces (female, heroic, cute, gaunt), and give the appearance of age. From the skeleton to the torso, to the arms, hands, and legs, follow every stroke that goes into producing bodies of all shapes and sizes. Finally, there's instruction on sending those figures into running, jumping, punching, kicking action in a fully realized scene. With advice so thorough, any amateur can become a professional.

Action! Cartooning is a comprehensive and well-organized drawing course likely to appeal to Saturday morning cartoon fans. This book thoroughly covers the fundamentals of cartoon anatomy, facial features, expressions, and action poses typically found in American-style animation and adventure comics designed for young audiences. Full of tips on how to improve rendering of specific parts of the human body from different angles and several pointers on how illustrate different body types and age groups, it provides all the basic tools a beginner artist might need to create his or her own original cast of cartoon characters. Bundled with some basic sketching supplies (also covered in the Materials section), this book would be a great gift for any budding artist.

Great book, great artist!

"Action!Cartooning", by Ben Caldwell, is a great book on drawing cartoon figures. I am a professional caricaturist myself (I own caricature concessions in a major theme park, and wrote the book "Let's Toon CARICATURES"), and a lot of the info Ben gives about "pushing" the characteristics of your characters, in order to give a clear, instant insight into their personalities, can be applied to caricaturing as well. There's a lot of great things about this book, and a lot of beautiful drawings. If you want to learn to draw good, cartoony action figures, then this is the book for you. It is so much better than any other cartoon or comic book anatomy books on the market, that is isn't even funny. I have recommended it to all of the artists I work with, and many other artist friends, already. I'd like to know what else Ben's done, because I'd love to see more of his work!

A treasure for the beginner or more experienced.

I recently changed my at style from manga-inspired to more "traditional" techniques. I first picked up Mr.Caldwell's Fantasy!Cartooning (another recommended purchase) and the techniques were so helpful and informative, I immediately looked up his other books.
Don't let the title fool you- this book offers more than just straight action techniques. There are a lot of basic methods that really boost your style, such as using body structure to portray personality, etc.
I don't think this is a book for total beginners or someone who doesn't know at least a little bit about anatomy and structure, but the language of the book is easy to follow and very informative.
Even more experienced artists can learn something from Mr. Caldwell. I've been cartooning (off and on) for over 20 years and I found myself experiencing a second renaissance after reading this great book. After a year-long personal slump I feel like an artist again and it's thanks to Mr. Caldwell.
