I was eager to look at this the moment it arrived and I am very far from disappointed! This author goes into detail covering basics like proportions to different character styles. I love that example scenes are used to demonstrate the techniques provided too. I would say this is an absolute gem for those looking to learn to draw anime. A big shout out of thanks to the author for the amazing work, I think this may just be the most helpful literature I’ve ever had on any art related subject. Can’t recommend enough!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for people that are mediocre at drawing

The book itself is big, sturdy and easy to understand. It isn't the best for people that are just beginning art and more for people that understand the basics and are in the middle of learning art. For those that do understand the basics this book is very helpful to push you to the next level of your drawing. It helped me exceptionally and I feel like my drawing has improved because of it.

This book shows the techniques of how to draw a person in proportion. It's great for my 11 year old son.

Insightful

The media could not be loaded. This book is for my 11 year old aspiring artist. After looking through the book together we found it was full of different tutorial style directions for recreating various anime characters. It has an area of focus on postures, faces, eyes, hair, etc. It offers plenty of variation in anime character styles, ages and shading styles. Overall this book is good buy, I believe an anime art enthusiast would get a lot out of it for sometime considering how dense it is.

Nice material
