Anatomía artística 9: Mamíferos: morfología comparada

Rate this book
En esta nueva entrega de Anatomía artística, Michel Lauricella nos adentra en el asombroso mundo de la morfología animal. A través de más de un centenar de especies de mamíferos, conoceremos sus características anatómicas comunes y aprenderemos a establecer vínculos entre sus formas y funciones, además de entender cómo sus procesos evolutivos han adaptado esas formas a los distintos ecosistemas. Un sinfín de conceptos y observaciones de morfología animal que nos permitirán crear formas ficticias llenas de verosimilitud. Más de 500 dibujos anatómicos organizados en función de los medios de los distintos animales. Una amplia variedad de especies animales, desde topos y armadillos hasta chimpancés, ardillas, nutrias y cetáceos.

A wonderful addition to the Morpho series, my only complaint is that it isn't longer! I'd love to see more books on Mammals and possibly see this series venture into birds. If you have any interest in drawing animals and creature design I highly recommend!

I love everything about this book. As an amateur artist, it was great to see all the different forms. I will certainly be using it in my drawing.
As a scientist, the explanations of homologous and convergent forms and just evolution in general were spot on. This would be a great read for someone who wasn't even interested in art but just interested in biology.

¿Fue todo lo que esperaba? Respuesta rápida NO
Pero esperen, se preguntarán porque 4 estrellas, y la verdad es que aunque no fue lo que esperaba, tuve mucho contexto de diversas especies, como identificarlas y como poder dibujarlas sabiendo que los hace diferentes.
Aunque no tiene mucho de como dibujarlos, si tiene datos curiosos.

This is an excellent resource for the animal artist or for anyone interested in the comparative mammal study. It contains excellent illustrations and straightforward explanations of a mammals of mist every form.
