Re: another newbie
Welcome to the forum!
 Ron Smith's books "Scroll Design" and "Advanced Scroll Design" are the bibles of scrolls. Not sure on what are the best references for animals but I do know that books on pen & ink drawing are what you want to work with - like with engraving in pen & ink you either have a line or you don't. No smudging / smearing / blending allowed.
