Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Fusing the Japanese terms man (spontaneous, whimsical, distorted) and ga (drawing, painted, or printed image), Manga has become the hot style for comic book and graphic novel aficionados. "The Art of Drawing Manga" provides a stunningly illustrated history of manga, a discussion of tools, narrative structure and composition and it continues with guidance on character development, visual perspective and depicting nuances of light and shadow. You can find out how to move from frame to frame, change settings, imbue a protagonist with personality and much more. Every page is an inspiration!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, November 14, 2008
Honestly, this is one of the best books on drawing manga I've ever seen, and I'm really happy to have it. If you're looking for a book of how to draw manga style, I suggest you look for another book. :P This covers the history, types of manga, paneling, narration, perspective, backgrounds, shading, light sources, some expressions, designing characters, and there's so much more, but I won't bore you.

It's a great buy for anyone of any level. Whether you've just picked it up as a hobby, or are trying to make it big, this book has some great suggestions and steps to help you on so many different levels. This is the most complete book on creating manga I've ever had the joy of reading, and I think the best thing is: It's not boring to read. I hope any of you out there interested in this sort of thing pick this up. I'm really glad I did. :3
