5.0 out of 5 stars To the Brazilian., Oct 2 2003

This review is from: Color Drawing: Design Drawing Skills and Techniques for Architects, Landscape Architects, and Interior Designers, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
Hi, I knew about the pens you are looking for. You can buy that pen in this amazon site, and I guess this book gives you the color name and number too. If you still don't get the pen, or don't know what to do, you can write me at "torontofriend@msn.com" I will try to send you some of those pens if possible. o.k. About the book, it's really great!

This is the best book I have found on architectural drawing, it is worth it's price. Too bad markers weren't cheaper, you would think they where made by Autodesk!

This review is from: Color Drawing: Design Drawing Skills and Techniques for Architects, Landscape Architects, and Interior Designers, 2nd Edition (Hardcover)
I recently purchased this book for an architecture class and boy has been helpful. There is a wealth of knowledge between these pages. Architectural color rendering is broken down in a step-by-step process that is easy to follow and understand.
