    Do a search on yahoo for "Loomis PDF" and you should find them all, they're not that hard to find.

    That download doesn't include Figure Drawing for All It's Worth. I still can't find a PDF version, ever though I have every individual page as a JPG. It's hard to print though in that format.
    Whatever you do, don't look at my Sketchbook and Painting Thread!

    Thanks acidkick. It looks like you're only missing "Figure Drawing for All It's Worth", check your PM in the next twenty minutes.

    You're the patron saint of Loomis.

    I used to have a physical copy of "Figure Drawing for All It's Worth", I got rid of it not knowing it was rare. I think I actually threw it in the trash when I was about to move or something. I'd like to smack that 11 year old version of myself right now.

    alright... i'm adding all 6 to one zip...

    as well as seperating them out into individual books... so you can download what you don't have...

    i just need this spread around...

    i'm putting them all on my site under a "loomis" directory

    http://acidkick.noobgrinder.com/Loomis/

    i wish there was a way to make this more public, so that people know where to go for these... maybe even get a few people hosting, other than me

    not to mention each book is about 30 a piece...

    Ah, ok, it's literally a file part. Ignore me. I'm a jackass.

    as this really comes up every month or so,i proposed to take turns hosting all of them continuously. here on ca.

    check this thread:

    http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45483

    the idea was:

    i just think it would be really good to have a permanent download place going right here on CA.org. all the loomis books. pdf. one place. one click. bam.

    im saying if peeps would like to set this up lets go. im not going to host continuously all of them. just a few guys with a site taking turns is all it takes.

    loomis comes up in soo many different threads here its ridiculous.
    we put the pdfs with a sticky in this section. and a discussion of the loomis techniques in another. if you want to talk about some pages or ideas then we do that there. its basic and advanced stuff in there, but almost all of it is essential.

    so - post here if you have a site and wouldnt mind taking turns hosting some of these. lets see if we can get this done.
