Manhwa—Korean for comics—is fast becoming the next big craze in Asian comics. Many fans of manga don't realize that their favorite comics, like Priest, Ragnarock, and Island, are actually manhwa, not Japanese manga. This tutorial helps artists master the differences between manga and manhwa, including less focus on big eyes and more on expressions and personality, replacing spiky hair with a more natural look, and drawing characters that don't typically possess magical powers but are instead fierce fighters made of flesh and blood. Artists learn through a step-by-step process how to draw the entire range of manhwa characters-from the extreme fighting-machine heroes and giant beasts to the sexy women, anti-heroes, and evil warlords.

it is a good book, but it doesn't give you enough detail to learn anything but the difference between manga and manhwa....

I got this book because I draw manga but decided that I wanted to do something a little different. The first few pages were great! They clearly showed the differences between manga and manhwa. Then he gives you a lot of pages for you to copy the drawings on and practice. Great idea! Except that its virtually all manga/anime stlye. It seemed just like some of the author's other how to draw manga books. I got this book because I DID NOT want a manga book but that's exactly what it turned out to be. If you're interested in drawing MANGA, this book is actually not too bad.

I like Christopher Hart, he's an amazing artist, but this particular book I have from him (and I have plenty) did not meet my expectations. Honestly the 'manhwa' drawings he has in this look like manga from the 80's. And though at the beginning of the book he does show the differences in manga and manhwa, he doesn't really keep to those differences through out the book, until the very end. It's a great book to reference what genres are used in manhwa, but not really how they are drawn and what they tend to look like.

Excellent Instruction

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 23, 2004

I am new to Manhwa although I've been a fan of Manga for quite a long time. Now I am a fan of Manhwa and especially this book. The comparison between Manhwa and Manga is excellent. I can assure you that if you follow the steps layed out by Christopher Hart, you will be an expert by the end of the book. I highly recommend this book. I've seen other books and this is by far the best.

WOW

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 9, 2004

I enjoyed the detailed comparison between the manga and the manhwa styles which will surely help me going a head in my career. Through out the book I found easy steps to draw lively, dark, villains, hip-hop, male & female characters in many positions that fit any mood and scene.

The book also has a great section on designing a comic scene; getting into angles, shots, sequencing and more.

Don't show step by step. Just pictures of what the author did or draw (Most of them - Few step by step pics). Not for beginners!

Not what I'm looking for.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 19, 2013

Certainly this not what I expected. Yes, it has many good examples about characters but if you want to learn how to drawing manhawa figures this book is terrible and unuseful. If you are looking for suggestions on the anatomical construction of the faces and figures, you will be greatly disappointed. Bad item.

Manhwa Mania: how to draw korean hmm? I must say I was hoping for a new style of drawing to add to my skill set but this book is one part how to draw Korean comics and four parts how to draw Manga which is quite dissapointing because their it an extensive collection of these types of book in the world already, so as I was quite annoyed to have found the contents of this book to be mostly, sorry I mean practically how to draw manga which Mr Hart has also written.

CONCLUSION:
For a beginner, this would be a great starting point; but if you would like to acquire the skills and knowledge of the Korean drawing style known as Manhwa this would be a miss.
