@Adrienne Assinewai Dear Adrienne, postage from my studio in Brisbane to Canada is about $45. I would advise you to try Buteo in USA. Or if you can find a book store in your city interested to order my books from me I will send you a book for free. 😊 Happy New Year! Natalia

[@vincepreston9304]

Fantastic 👍

[@victoriadixon9464]

Thanks for your review. This book was written as part of a PhD submission by a lovely woman who did a Bachelor of Natural History Illustration. Just like me! Good to see the Aussies going global. Unfortunately the degree no longer exists - it has been discontinued. But it was fantastic. We studied things like traditional and digital botanical illustration, medical illustration, animation, visual narrative (storytelling through illustration) and much, much more. A spectacular experience.

[@Captain_MonsterFart]

Oh I would have absolutely loved to get an education like that. Envy!

[@zestysock8874]

That intro was smooth :O

[@DustinBlaise]

Thnx :) took us about an hour to plan and film and few extra hours to edit the intro together. We were trying out After Effects and we were new to it so it took us some extra time to get to the final product XD

At the moment, I am trying to draw winged animals and see what they look like! (So I have been drawing winged tigers for instance) I think this book will help my drawing of wings. Thank you for the suggestion! Please keep doing videos on how you draw your characters though, I really love watching them! ❤️

oh hey! I reached out to her on eBay last week, she asked me where I heard about her book and I linked her to your website, I wonder if that had anything to do with this book review haha

Thanks, but we have been in touch with Aaron much earlier - since he first purchased my book. Hope your book arrived safely, and please keep in touch! Natalia

Nice book! Thanks for showing it Aaron. I've been studying my anatomy by poorer means and one book I cant recommend enough is Ghetie’s Atlas of Avian Anatomy (not for artists though. Hours of sweat and tears needed to understand it)

[@spofsterr]

Thank you for this! I like drawing birds and I know some antonomy of it

[@sonyagr9613]

Thanks for this interesting book ! I will find it soon :D

[@gabrielvelozo8583]

That's almost unreal how a 40 USD book gets so expensive when buying from Brazil, more than 400 bucks and I'm far from being able to aford that, hope she release a formal shipping or at least that Amazon Brasil will one day sell it at a normal price .

[@Luxalpa]

It's crazy to me that in 2019 scientific knowledge is still not being available on the Internet. I can't buy this book in Germany, there's no electronic version of it because the creator apparently is lazy or never heard the Internet exists. It's really making me angry.

So much to learn from you

[@mix-up9003]

awesome dude thanks for the heads up, but it doesn't seem to be on amazon, looking elsewhere for it at the moment.

[@Specklezz]

Thank you so much for sharing this. Bought this book immediately as a bird fanatic, and I purchased your course a while back so glad to know what inspired you. Only problem is I cannot recommend : NHBS Books. I created an account and it immediately got compromises (password stolen within minutes) not sure if I have a virus or the website has security issues

[@Angels-3xist]

It’s interesting that if you learn the nuances of different but similar animals it might change how you associate their meaning or character in your work. Sort of like how flowers all have different symbolism in Chinese brush painting for example. This book seems like a good argument to learning some nuance if you’re drawn to the subject.

[@harin3272]

Best intro ever

[@kristym8641]

Hey Aaron, I draw birds more than any other subject, specifically parrots. Are there tips in the book for drawing parrots? Their feet are zygodactyl so 2 toes face backward, and this is one of the more difficult parts to master. They also use them to grasp objects adding more complexity. I am slowly making progress because my birds let me play with their feet and study them, but it's still challenging. Also macaws have a unique skull shape in relation to their beak and I would love to see this author's take on that if she has one. Thank you for the review, I'll keep the book on my radar!

[@eljuli1003]

Is there a way to buy from Colombia? I really wanna get it.

[@rydrakeesperanza5370]

2:02 huh, it really*is* the number of bones. I remember that the types (Aniso-, Zygo etc datcyl) were illustrated in pieces (1 for toe 1 (or apparently Phallux in aniso), 2 for 2 etc) but when looking at feet it didn't always look like it so I wasn't sure anymore.... As a bird enthusiast this book looks pretty interesting, even though I've already read a bird book, watched bird lectures and currently read a physiology book, still, as someone who likes to draw this could be interesting

[@maxwelladekoje1726]

Please review these two fantastic books, "Just Eat the Worm" and "Higher is calling" by Maxwell Adekoje. Thanks! Incredible read 📖 with massive nuggets for 2021. ❣ Happy New 🎊 year to all reading this.

[@the0black0bullet]

I have a pigeon. But he doesn't let me look at him a lot. He's so annoying. When he was little he was totally fine with me looking at him. But now that he has a pigeon family he doesn't care about me that much. I can still try to draw him like this tho. And also i took pictures every day when he was growing so I'll have references.
