I already have a copy of the book, so I’ll pass on the contest. It’s rather handy, especially if you do superhero work.

What’s with the weird perspective?

Looks like an attempt to demonstrate foreshortening, a common element of a lot of superheroic comic artwork. It’s an important skill for any artist, but, yeah, it looks a bit freaky in more ‘realistic’ photographic reference.

Thanks! That first one, the guy looks like Mr. Fantastic, with misshapen arms. Freaky! What’s with the weird perspective?
