dissapointment
i recieved this book this book in the mail and had been eagerly awaiting its arrival. i don't know how else to express it other than i was very dissapointed. i have see Michael Doyle's fist edition of his Color Drawing and my original intent was to buy the second edition of that, but when i saw this book with its raving editorial review i decided to try this one instead. i mean who could turn down a book with a review like "the most complete guide and study of color rendering of interiors ever compiled" and "exhaustive in its coverage" i thought that this book was going to be wonderful. i think that i might have found it useful if i had never even picked up colored pencils and markers before. There was very little rendering of total interiors just objects or things that might go in an interior. If you are really looking for a complete source then i really wouldn't recomend this book, only a just starting out beginner might find it useful.
Color Rendering Tips
I was introduced to Wei Dong's book in an Interior Design class on Presentation Techniques. It is an excellent book for all but the most experienced Interior Renderer. It focuses on the use of color markers and comes complete with practice exercises that help build your skill and confidence. I highly recommend it!
Excellent step by step guide for beginners.
I purchased this book to supplement a text I was required to purchase for a rendering course. I'm a beginner so I don't have much experience in rendering and need to see visual steps as well as finished products. This book provides step by step explanations and visual expamples of how to render a variety of objects from basic shapes, furniture and material finishes such as metal, wood and marble. My only negative comment pertains to the price. I received a paperback book but the description here on Amazon states "Hardcover". I think the price is a little high for a paperback bound book but the content is worth the investment overall. This is a book I plan to keep and use for future design projects.
