How To Draw Manga: Colored Original Drawing Reviews of this title:
Eugene Ocasio - Aug 7 2004
Rating: Wonderful!
Great for everyone!
Though it is basicaly a shameless self promotion for the Japanese Copic brand products, the book contains a variety of step by step coloring techniques that are easy to follow and to learn.
It covers not just techniques for markers, but the use of pastels, air brush sytems, and other media.
The book claims that your drawings will come out looking like cels from an animation studio. If you're a careful and patient artist, believe me they will. Everything is explained step by step, and once these techniques are learned thay can be applied to any kind of artwork, even if you do not use Copic brand products, which, by the way, are great.
Is better to learn these coloring tecniques at home than in a high paying class.
The knowledge in this book is timeless, you won't waste your money, I highly recommend it!
