   I’m definitely going to check this book out. I love Tom Richmond’s work.

   I’ll buy it for sure. I’ve leeched off his great website for long enough!

   By far the best caricature lessons on the web are Tom Richmond’s so it’s only natural that this book will continue that tradition… Looking forward to it!!

   Cool cover, looks like it’ll be a good book. Speaking of books on caricature, is there anything out there on Mort Drucker besides “Familiar faces” by David Duncan (which is a nice book, but I would love to have more)?

   I saw his “dummy” copy at the San Diego Comic Con, and trust me, folks, this is going to be the caricaturist’s Bible in years to come. Tom has a great way of truly analyzing faces and poses and the teaching gift to tell YOU how it’s done. None of this “draw a circle, add two lines and Voila! The Mona Lisa!” crap. It’s detailed with hundreds of drawings and sketches. I’m not drawing much anymore, and I want one.

   Easiest prediction in my entire life: Tom’s book will become THE standard by which all future “how-to” books on caricature will be judged… The old gold standard was Lenn Redman’s book, “How to Draw Caricatures”, still a great resource, but it was published in 1984… Admittedly, Jim van der Keyl also has a fantastic how-to book on caricature, chock full of useful info and examples, however, I have to give the nod to Tom…

   Thanks for the votes of confidence, gentlemen. I will try to live up to them!
