This book has a variety of nude and semi-nude drawings of women to help you practise your shading skills by using a reference picture to copy from. Although the book does not give step-by-step instructions on how to shade, this method is enjoyable and will improve your drawing skills. Each drawing has two shading choices to choose from: 1) A simplified shaded version for beginners or for a first try shade. There is also a definite outline and a ‘graphite shading scale' to help you compare your shading to the original render. 2) A more detailed shaded version for the final shade or for more advanced shaders. This version also includes a very faint outline as a guide and a ‘graphite shading scale' to compare your final shading to the original render.
