The thickest book on figure painting AK Interactive has published – 488 pages at 33 × 23 cm. It was written by Kirill Kanaev and is built as a reference rather than an evening's reading: it works from the basic pillars up to the most complex techniques and shows each one on actual models. If someone is to own a single book on figures, this is usually it. The text is bilingual, English and Spanish side by side in the same copy.

Frequently asked questions
What language is the book in?
Bilingual – English and Spanish, both in the same copy. No Slovak edition exists.
Is it suitable for a beginner?
Yes, though it is a large first investment. A beginner is often better served by a thinner AK Learning title, with Figures F.A.Q. coming later as the one place to look anything up.
How does it differ from FAQ 2 – Fantasy Figures?
Figures F.A.Q. covers figures as a whole across genres. FAQ 2 by Arnau Lázaro concentrates on fantasy – NMM, OSL, volumes. They are not competing titles; they complement each other.
