CorelDraw 9 f/x and design (Shane Hunt)
This book is awesome for learning those extra special techniques involved in illustrating and creating one of a kind images. It starts by covering the CorelDraw 9 interface and takes you through terrific tutorials on creating many different types of images and effects including explosions, cartoons, photo collages and much, much more.
The writer includes detailed instructions and files on the CD that comes with the book. I don't remember when I've had so much fun reading and using an instructional manual.
Not only was it easy to follow along with the tutorials, the graphical subjects of the tutorials made them fun and interesting. The writer took concepts that I consider complex and made them quick and easy.
The center of the book has a full color section that includes final images from all the projects in the book that is very impressive and inspires the imagination to want to do more. This book is not only a good tutorial on many concepts of drawing and applying effects but also a good reference to have handy.
The fonts were missing on the CD-ROM but you can find them at the official CorelDRAW 9 f/x and design Web site .
