Mega Manga Characters cover

Do you want to learn how to draw manga characters from scratch? Then look no further! Aimed specifically at beginners, this book includes examples from the main genres of manga characters and will teach you how to draw different characters in distinct poses. Starting with simple exercises and gradually getting more complicated, there are sections covering Kodomo (child), Shonen (teenage boy), Shojo (teenage girl) and Seinen (youth) characters to practise.

To help you along the way, there are clear step-by-step instructions, with 10 exercises for each genre. Friendly chibis also pop up every so often to offer tips and advice to keep in mind while you are drawing. Extensive advice on finishing techniques ranges from colouring by computer, using pen and ink, paintbrush, felt-tip pen and pencils, both in black and white and colour.

For the best start to your manga-drawing journey, this book will inspire you to explore and improve your skills.

Midwest Book Review Feb 2021
Written for beginning artists, Mega Manga Characters is a guide to drawing characters in various styles of manga (Japanese comics). Artistic conventions for characters in kodomo manga (comics aimed at children), shounen manga (comics aimed at young adult boys), shojo manga (comics aimed at young adult girls), and seinen manga (comics aimed at adults) are all discussed and demonstrated. Step-by-step instructions and colorful illustrations make Mega Manga Characters a hands-on instructional treasure for budding artists interested in creating their own manga-style scenes and stories! Highly recommended.
