Description
Book Introduction
“To portray a character with a unique personality,
“Before that, you must have the strength to draw the human body in a balanced and solid manner!”
A 12-month course in an art academy for entrance exams in one book
The world's most concise yet systematic book on human figure drawing techniques.


Mani, a YouTuber with 80,000 drawings and who has been teaching at an art academy for entrance exams for 13 years, has compiled his character drawing know-how into one book.
This is a technique book that will blow away all your worries in one fell swoop: those who want to draw people but can't even get started because the academy is too far away and they don't have time; those who have bought several drawing technique books but always give up halfway; and those who are hobbyists but want to draw people properly.
It helps you learn the basics of the human body, from the face to the whole body and core anatomy.
You can learn a wide range of character drawing skills by covering facial features, expressions, hair, and even wrinkles in clothing.
It contains tips on how to eliminate drawing hurdles here and there to help you draw more easily and enjoyably without getting tired.
