Hi!
I would like to illustrate my own microscopic observations since the microscope camera is not yet available.
I would like to know if you have heard any books/references that teaches on how to illustrate microscopic organisms (anything between bacteria to protozoan, and probably microscopic structures of animals and plants).
I would like to know your thoughts about this.
You may also share your favorite articles or papers that showcase amazing illustration works.

Re: looking for illustration/drawing guide
Rather than a temporary substitute for a camera, microscopy drawing should be considered an art in its own right, in many cases more useful than a photographic image.
Several manufactures offer drawing attachments, you should check to see if one is available for your microscope.
