The must-have workbook companion to the mega-selling Step-by-Step Manga, by celebrated manga artist Gecko Keck.
This practical workbook with drawing prompts, practical manga tips and space to draw can be used alongside Step-by-Step Manga, or as a standalone drawing guide, and is the perfect tool for beginners.
All the key drawing elements are covered: Gecko Keck explains the techniques required to bring manga characters to life on the page, from an exploration of the essential tools and materials to creating outlines and hatching, sketching key facial features, capturing movement and perspective. Keck reveals his own secrets for conveying emotion, as well as adding depth to characters through hairstyles and fashion choices – right through to mystical or fantastical details such as animal ears – and even tails!
Space to draw and practise throughout: Provided throughout are a variety of drawing prompts to get you started. This includes partial images for you to complete or add further detail to so that you can practise specific elements such as hair or clothing; simple faint outlines for you to build on; and some completely blank spaces for you to experiment with.
Take it further: Discover how to create a world around your characters using considered colour choices and graphic effects. Then put all your skills into practice to plan out a graphic novel of your own!
