This exciting new volume in the Monster Book of Manga series features stunning art and detailed instructions on how to illustrate adventurous, bold, sexy, and self-possessed female manga characters.
The Monster Book of Manga: Girls includes more than fifty exercises that cover every female archetype in modern manga: the student, the Gothic Lolita, the athlete, the music idol, the warrior, the science-fiction heroine, and many more. It pairs advanced illustration techniques with step-by-step instructions, and features an original cast of girls, fierce and timeless enough to take the spotlight of any manga cartoon. This lush, full-color manual is perfect for beginning and advanced manga artists alike.
The first book to buy if you want to learn how to draw manga girls ! This is a huge book. It is also a heavy book due to the high quality paper that is used. The book goes through 9 themes; everyday, fashion, princesses, fantasy, magical girls, professions, sports, festivities, heroines.
There are more than 50 projects in here. Each project is a 3-7 pages section where every step is displayed, from the basic sketch lines to the finished drawing. The drawings are beautiful and detailed without looking too complex.
This is the best manga book I have ever purchased. There are other "monster" books in this series and they are all of very good quality. Together with "Sketching Manga-style", this is a book that really helps me becoming a better artist !
