Press Release

Buddy Scalera is about to give professional illustrators something to cheer about.  The comic book writer (Deadpool, Richie Rich) and photographer has shot 1,200 pictures to utilize as photo reference in drawing superheroes.  Collected in his new book,  “Comic & Fantasy Artist’s Photo Reference: Colossal Collection of Action Poses,” which  arrives September 26, 2011 in bookstores and online.

A 320-page oversize trade paperback being published by IMPACT Books, the book collects the best of Scalera’s hard-to-find pose-file and adds dozens of brand new pictures and art tutorials. “Colossal Collection” is Scalera’s fifth educational book and the second book from Scalera shipping in 2011. Scalera’s “Creating Comics from Start to Finish,” shipped in May 2011.
The “Colossal Collection” features a best-of style group of anatomy poses from Scalera’s first three photo books, which include: Comic Artist’s Photo Reference: People & Poses (2006), Comic Artist’s Photo Reference: Women & Girls (2008), and Comic Artist’s Photo Reference: Men & Boys (2008). The pose file book boasts an all-new cover by fan favorite artist Amanda Conner (Power Girl, Black Cat, Vampirella) and Paul Mounts (Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, Ultimates).

Exclusive new photographs include poses from fashion designer Ridada Elias (Chiguna.com) and actress Zoe Labella. Scalera also includes never-before-seen photographs that were shot for the original books, but were not included due to space. And, the book features brand new art lessons from Michael Avon Oeming (Powers) and Thom Zahler (Love & Capes).Also included are classic art lessons from Mitchell Breitweiser (Captain America), Sean Chen (Wolverine), Paul Chadwick (Concrete), David Hahn (Spider-Man), Matt Haley (Wonder Woman), Jamal Igle (Superman), Josh Howard (Dead@17), JG Jones (Wanted), Rafael Kayanan (Conan), Mike Lilly (Batman), Greg Land (X-Men), Terry Moore (Strangers in Paradise), Fernando Ruiz (Archie), William Tucci (Shi), and Mark Smylie (Archaia).

That sounds kinda cool. Those books are good reference material as far as poses go. A couple of months ago I bought two of Mr. Scalera's books, Comic Artists' Reference: Women and Girls and Comic Artists' Reference: Men and Boys. I gave them to a friend of mine as a gift. It's always good to have reference material, and these books, are some of the best out there.
