Is This Art Book Worth It? Taco's Point Character Drawing Review

In this video, I’m reviewing one of the most popular anatomy and character design resources for artists: Point Character Drawing by Taco. Published by Lezhin, this book has gained a massive following for its "point-by-point" simplification of complex human anatomy. What’s inside? • Simplified Forms: How Taco breaks down the body into easy-to-draw shapes. • Stylized vs. Realistic: A look at how the book balances real-world anatomy with a stylized anime/manga aesthetic. • Bite-sized Tips: Each page focuses on one specific "point" or tip, making it perfect for quick study sessions. • Flick-through: I’ll be showing you the layout and content of both Volume 1 and 2. Whether you're a beginner looking for your first anatomy book or an advanced artist needing a stylized reference guide, let’s see if this belongs on your bookshelf!
