This is a good beginner friendly book. I would say you’d be best knowing shading techniques and how to draw various 3D shapes and you’d be good to go. Supplies are minimal—pencils, paper, lightbox/tracing paper. Boom, you have your dragon. Or well, you could, but dragons take up about 40% of the book. The rest is for other fantasy and mythological beings such as griffins, unicorns, minotaurs, mermaids and more.

Note that the book doesn’t go into backgrounds or how to place your characters in a scene at all.
