Amazon Customer: I really learned a lot about the different methods used for making art look realalistic through the use of different techniques used for filling in light and dark areas after drawing a piece of art. This book will also serve as a good reference when needing any questions answered regarding what and when to used different techniques used for shading.

Steve, Oldham.: The only downside to this book is a few grammatical errors in the text. As common understanding can easily unpick these, this is a minor issue.
There is a lot of knowledge and experience in these chapters which, if treated as lessons and projects to be practiced, will deliver an in depth understanding of how to use a variety of shading techniques to improve your artwork and to create a more engaging style of work that is consistent in the quality you can achieve as you develop your own style. I found this really useful to me and would recommend this to anyone seeking to improve their drawing and shading skills.

Sheila Asante: Very good book for beginner. It goes into the different types of pencils, what pencils work best with which type of paper, the types of drawing paper and techniques of drawing with pencils. I would recommend this book to beginners wanting to learn to draw.

Me: Very detailed tips on shading. Useful. But topics seem to jump around . First project is quite involved and complicated. Next one much simpler. Then complex then silly. I'm not sure what age group she is writing for. Mostly adults I think....

ScienceDivaScienceDiva: This is a how to book that delivers on what it says. I have the electronic version. There are some typos and some repetition, and as an ebook, the diagrams are not as easy to see. On the other hand, the lessons are concise and well explained. I particularly like the sections in which she answers questions from her students and shows samples. I am including my first practice drawing; some are better but I felt it was worth it. :-)

Placeholder: I bought this for my very talented teenage daughter who is trying to expand her drawing techniques from anime to more "realistic" drawings. She is learning a lot from this book.
That being said, I have seen books with better pictures and more examples, but this is a good starter book. The eye examples in this book are spot on!
She is very happy with this book!
