How to Draw Monsters!

(No humans were harmed in the making of this book.)

Looking for a way to unleash your inner beast? It’s easy with these wonderfully weird and relatively harmless creatures.

Head inside the Monster Factory to:

   • Draw 43 fun and feisty monsters step by step!
   • Learn to draw different eyes, mouths, horns, legs and feet, and then mix them up to invent your very own, unique and scary creations.
   • Create four breeds of monsters, including freestyle, alien, mashups and robots.
   • Spot monster-making inspiration all around you, from animals and insects to jelly beans and toasters.
Inside are some of the most likeable (and freaky) fiends you’ll ever encounter–from Stephanie, who just wants to hug, to Patience, the bug-eating rock, to Peeperpillar, a cute caterpillar-parakeet. They come from the quirky minds of three professional monster artists, here to share their secret techniques and character-building tips. With a fun, anything-goes approach to monster-making, they show you how to bring to life the monsters running wild in your own imagination.
