    Comprehensive, easy read

    Prefer to put a pen to paper more than create a digital line? Then this book might be for you. A comprehensive, step by step book detailing the ins and outs of the Rapidograph technical pen, the illustrations and descriptions of the do's and don'ts of the subject are quite striking, as well as very helpful to the novice, and a good refresher for the experienced artist. Taken as a series of lessons, the patience and technique to use the pen and its various features/options the book excels. I wouldn't personally sit down and consume it in a single sitting, as the techniques themselves begin to blur together in my mind... but when separated in lesson style chapters, it's quite compelling stuff. I got mine for $12, but it'd be worth the cover price. I love computers, but I do have to think ...
