In a different approach to his best selling Art books, Christopher Hart gives us "The Manga Artist's Workbook". The book includes step by step contruction techniques with tissue paper for budding artists to trace as well as grid paper for practise sketching.Hart discusses (visually)facial expressions, proportions, poses, figure maneuvers, eyes, and hair styles. His art books cover these topics very well, but when you want to grab a pencil and draw, this book rocks. Tim Lasiuta

This book was awesome. It has really high quality drawings, that are pretty good manga drawings. The book is made with a really high attention to quality. The coverage is only for the basic manga aspects. This book is definitely one of the best how to draw books.

This review is from: The Manga Artist's Workbook: Easy-to-Follow Lessons for Creating Your Own Characters (Spiral-bound)
The Manga Artist's Workbook is a mix between a How-to-Drawbook and a Sketch Pad. It goes over head positions, eyes, eye expressions, hair, body form, hands, clothing, and more. In the midst of informing you on basics and essentials to this style of drawing, it has tracing paper and graph paper to help you learn the lining and spacing. Often times the book gives you an example drawing and asks you to either recreate it or recreate an aspect of the drawing on a partially finished example. It has mini-lessons to complete to help you to learn this type of drawing that are comprehensible and fun. Before I read this book, I didn't know anything about Manga, and couldn't draw it. Now if I use a picture of whoever I'm turning into a Manga sketch, and this book as a reference, I can draw a half-decent person. As I can't draw people whatsoever, this is as good as I'm likely to get. I expected to learn how to draw a happy person looking straight at me, aka. a basic character, nothing special. But I learned different views, emotions, and the whole deal! This book exceeded my expectations; it was the best How-To-Draw book I've read.
