Scores Of Images And Stepbystep Examples Illustrate How Variation And Experimentation Lead To Fresh, Original Designs For Otherworldly Beings, Their Environments, And Their Stories.Nelson Discusses How To Find Ideas And Borrow From History To Add The Strength Of Realism To A Fantasy World. In Describing The Best Ways To Establish A Habitat, He Offers Specifics About Climate, Terrain, Flora, And Wildlife. He Shares Insights Into Founding Societies In Terms Of Their Means Of Survival, Manner Of Warfare, Spiritual Practices, Style Of Dress, And Levels Of Technology. All Visual Creatives Who Work With Imaginative Material Illustrators, Comic Artists, And Writers Will Take A Lively Interest In This Source Of Inspiration And Practical Knowledge.In Sixteen Breezyyetsurprisinglyconcise Chapters He Covers Everything From Visual Problem Solving To Spirituality To Warfare To Transportation, Not With The Idea Of Giving The Reader Lessons To Copy By Rote But Rather As Prompts To Develop Their Own Original Concepts.
