Manga Mania How To Draw Japanese Comics - Christopher Hart > Reviews (3)

I found this book really helpful. It wasn't condescending like other tutorial books are instead it was very helpful. It gave you a drawing style showed you how to create a simple model using an simple wire example. Then simply let you go where you wanted to from there.
Other tutorials simply promote the reader to trace and copy what they show and never really help the user to expand thier knowledge and talents in creating thier own characters and ideas.
After reading this and doing some of the tutorials i found that i was better able to produce sprites for game production and that it helped me find a new-found respect for what i used to believe was simple trash novels. Now when i find myself reading manga, i appreciate what the drawer has actually created, a masterpiece.
