How To Draw Manga Sketching Manga-Style Vol 3 TP

Description

"Most artists have probably found themselves at some point starting off planning to draw an ""impressive"" character, but then becoming absorbed in the superficial appearance of the various body parts and other details, resulting in an over-drawn character that lacks focus. This results from an artist forgetting their original plan somewhere along the drawing process, the information to be conveyed becomes distorted, and the artist adds too much extraneous information. Sketching as an art form concerned with quality and volume of information requires three skills: communication, composition and portrayal. An artist must tap into these three skills while visualizing a clear plan. Manga sketching, which goes one step further, involves the skill of making the fantastic seem plausible. It also involves skills in determining the quality of the information to be conveyed and how much of it to actually convey. The last 2 skills form the focus of this book."
