Book Description

Manga Mania June 2, 2009

Chris Hart’s latest entry in his blockbuster series explodes with girl power! From fighters and princesses to magical characters and ordinary schoolgirls, manga features an array of female types, and Hart goes step by step through the techniques for creating them all, so that artists of any level can follow along. His huge cast of characters includes angels of light and darkness, a sushi chef, samurai, shopaholics, a pirate, a judge, athletes, and a veterinarian tending to a sick cute monster. And, since manga girls rarely sit still, aspiring illustrators will learn how to draw them in action, in a variety of situations.

More About the Author

Thanks for taking a look at my books, and this "Author Bio." I'm a competent tennis player, who also enjoys playing computer chess while I'm watching TV at night (Hey, it prevents me from channel-surfing). I'm keenly interested in M-theory, although i have become skeptical of it of late, despite Brian's Green's full-body gushing... I love being with my family, and even my extremely evil dog, a Welsh Springer Spaniel named "Rusty." Oh, yes, he truly is that evil.

As for my work, I'm the author of many How-To-Draw books, published by Watson-Guptill,the art imprint of Random House. Thanks to a lot of the wonderful readers (and you know who you are!), I have sold over 3 million copies domestically, which have been translated into 20 languages worldwide.

I'm fortunate to also have had 26 of the Best-Selling art books in the country, according to Bookscan.(Bookscan is the publishing industry's rating system for books, which is owned by same company that does the Neislen TV ratings.)

I also have my own drawing show on the Comcast Network, called, "How To Draw Action Heroes With Chris Hart." It's on Comcast's "Activity TV." I hope you like my books, and find them a valuable adjunct to your own imagination.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read!, August 7, 2009
By 
This review is from: Manga Mania: Girl Power!: Drawing Fabulous Females for Japanese Comics (Paperback)
It is clear throughout this wonderful book, that Christopher Hart really understands and appreciates Manga. The joy comes through in every page. He covers it all - different action poses, athletic types, various scenes and manga professions :-) You will be entertained for hours and yes, your drawing "chops" will increase exponentially!

I bought this for my nephew, he wanted the man stuff but I told him if he wanted to draw he had to draw both sexes. Shipping time was great. Pricing was good. Easy to do through Amazon best way to shop.

3.0 out of 5 stars a little sassy for me, July 25, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Manga Mania: Girl Power!: Drawing Fabulous Females for Japanese Comics (Paperback)
Bought this for a 9 year old. Half the book was a little too sassy for my liking. I returned it for a mellower manga book. Too much t&a for a 9 year old, even if it is a cartoon drawing. This book would be better for a teenager.
