How To Draw Manga Volume 21: Bishoujo Pretty Gals (How to Draw Manga)

It's really cute but like 90 percent of the book is anatomy. The rest is pretty useful but it's only like 10 pages like the neko, mermaid, winged, and robot girls but again, it's not a lot.

I have several of Hikaru Hayashi's books and they are all really good - this one is no exception. Lots of good reference material and instruction. Its not really for a beginner - but great for a bit more advanced artist. Shows how to draw hair, eyes, and many, many poses.

This product was excellent. If only the book was longer so the author could write even more!

This was a very nice book. It had plenty of reference material.

My daughter loved it

I'm not an expert mangaka, so I couldn't really use some of the things in this book, but even so, my art has improved dramatically. I still can't figure out the nuances of the poses, but the proportions of my characters, and the clothes that they wear are much better. Even if you are new to manga art I suggest this.WARNING:Naked women in sexy poses. Not a good idea for little kids.

Great art book! Not safe for kids though, lots of nudity.

I'm super happy with this book. Although it's not exactly for beginners, it gives plenty of information on how to draw faces and bodies. I use it to give me ideas and as a reference book, it's very convenient to have around, anytime I feel like drawing. I definitely recommend this one to anybody who likes drawing shoujo!!

This is an ideal book for those looking to draw manga girls that are clearly intended to be pretty. From basic structures to accentuations, this book tells you basically all you need to know to get drawing your own Bishoujo girls. Definitely recommend - if you want to draw manga, I would definitely add this book to your collection.

Fantastic

It's got a lot more than I expected, including many examples on different outfits ranging from basic school girl to dresses to towels, beachwear, and so on. It covers basic anatomy and how to grasp the 'pretty girl' look and a dozen hairstyles. Will definitely reference for the outfits.Book was definitely old and used. Smells a bit funky, but for $2.00 you can't go wrong!

I bought this book to help me teach anime drawing. Currently, I am teaching one on one private drawing class. I like this book, and so does my student. The drawings are decent. It teaches you how to draw face, hair, body, different poses with different clothes.Unfortunately, there are some drawings which show nudity, so I cannot show them to him. While I am teaching, I only show him the more appropriate drawings.
