LOL. I haven't used them yet as I haven't got that far so I took a look and you are absolutely right!
I spent ages looking for what I thought would be a good set ( cause the good sets are really, really expensive ) and these were relatively cheap.. I just assumed these were 5 different templates.
Well, god knows what I am going to do with them now. I can't afford a better set. Maybe I need to mix and match some cheaper ones.
I'm in the same situation, I bought what I thought was a good set off amazon and they turned out to be tiny lol.
Think I might just have to try free handing at this point as I've just reached the wheel challenge!
Just need to tell yourself, 'It will make me a better artist.' :-)
Just a thought, it would be quite easy to create a template in a vector program. You could then print on cardboard and cut, or you could use with a light box. Might be a cheaper alternative. Think I might do this if I ever get to that exercise.
Here we're getting into the subjective - Gerald Brom is one of my favourite artists (and a pretty fantastic novelist!). That said, if I recommended art books just for the beautiful images contained therein, my list of recommendations would be miles long.
The reason this book is close to my heart is because of its introduction, where Brom goes explains in detail just how he went from being an army brat to one of the most highly respected dark fantasy artists in the world today. I believe that one's work is flavoured by their life's experiences, and discovering the roots from which other artists hail can help give one perspective on their own beginnings, and perhaps their eventual destination as well.
