3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as I had hoped. Nov 29 2003
By Jake
Format:Paperback
I got this book pretty much based on the front cover, I have to say. While that is my fault, it's misleading. I wanted to learn to draw nekos (cat-girls), which I couldn't find in the book. One thing though, there were some cool sections about Japanese mythology and monsters.

I do like this book, it just wasn't as good as I hoped. I still look through it when I'm drawing, but I think only one picture (chibi devil girl) actually has any elements from this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Tettering over the edge Aug 23 2003
By Crimsonvalkyrie
Format:Paperback
Don't let ANYONE fool you. The books at this level of "How to Draw Manga" series are not for beginners. Don't let anyone come and tell you that you'll get step by step instructions...because you won't. Especially not in this book.

BUT WAIT! Don't go off just because of that. This book isn't so much about walking you through things as it is about giving some EXTREMELY useful tips. While using this book I found myself looking back and saying..."Wait I ALREADY DO THAT!" And by paying attention to the techniques I was using for the genre unconciously I was able to refine and get better! If your interested in Occult, Horror, Fantasty, and magic based comics I'd suggest this book greatly. It's a nice RESOURCE.

Buy it as soon as you can. Just don't expect to have steps taken with you. This is a "Look at us do it and now YOU do it." Also for you strict pencillers out there, some of the inking techniques in this book can be applied to you. I don't like inking my work unless it's to certain parts. Never as a whole. So I mimicked alot of this in pencil. Hope this helps people! Bye bye!

5.0 out of 5 stars Yay!! Aug 14 2003

Format:Paperback
A whole variety of fun ideas and techniques offered. Everything from how to get that severed limb just perfectly gory looking, to drawing convincing backdrops of many moods.

One of the coolest facets of this book is the fact that they explain what various drawn japanese expressions mean. I watch animae a little differently now- pretty nifty, indeed.
