More about people illustration

From close-in portraits of individual faces through to wide panoramas filled with characters engaged in all manner of activities, people illustration is a broad and vibrant category. People illustrators work in a variety of styles and use a range of techniques, but what they have in common is they can all draw believable and relatable representations of the human form. Whether the artist creates loose, figurative line work or detailed, anatomically correct renderings, the ability to illustrate people is a rare and valuable skill. A talented illustrator will bring people from different cultures around the world into your campaign, seamlessly.
