Popular manga artists Junka Morozumi and Tomomi Mizuna guide you through a series of carefully graded lessons to build up your skills gradually. Each pose and scene has a star skill level, so you can build your way up from 1 to 5!
- Learn character poses ranging from standing, walking and running, to signature manga poses with expressive movements, 2-person poses, and so many more!
- Practice drawing from various perspectives and viewpoints
- Trace and draw directly into your workbook and learn to master the basics of manga character poses faster than you could imagine!
Each page presents a classic manga pose, from walking and running to jumping for joy, in three different steps:
- A simple outline of the body, to practice drawing features and basic anatomy
- The defining elements of the character (like clothes, hair and facial expression) highlighted for easy tracing so you can practice placing them onto the basic body outline.
- The finished drawing (for inspiration).
Beginning manga artists are in good hands with Morozumi, who lectures at art academies in Tokyo, and Mizuna, whose work has been exhibited in the U.S., Europe and beyond. If you've been looking for an easy-to-use guide to drawing manga, The Manga Artist's Handbook: Drawing Basic Manga Characters is the perfect place to start!
