Mastering Manga, How to Draw Manga Scenes Kindle Edition

Mark Crilley, doesn't waist time show and telling the basics on Manga layout. The instructions and imagery are easy to follow. The artist also seasons the pages with his "Can-Do" attitude, easy going charm, and sense of humor.I would recommend this book for those who have a background in art and even have developed their skill-sets and style in drawing Manga characters. If not, this is still a great instructional guide on the basics of composing layouts, using 1-3 point perspective for backgrounds, and even determining placement of sentences...... Or phrases...... And how they all fall across the page.All this to help keep your readers in the story and not puzzling over it's layout!

Useful as hell. Mostly you find books out there that focus on character designing etc but this is important too when drawing manga so I like it a lot. Thanks mark!

Another great book from Mark Crilley. Would have liked some more examples of scenes in perspective, but the basics of perspective is well covered. I would buy it again.

All of this information is already contained in his book "Mastering Manga"..it's the exact same information. Nothing new. If you have the book, don't buy this.

this is a true starters book, if you know the basics this is not for you.

This went beyond what I initially thought it would be. Two-dimensional images have always been a challenge for me; I could never figure out how the lines were supposed to go...and don't get me started on three-dimensional images. If you've ever had a challenge with that, then this book will certainly help.

Mark Crilley is a great artist I have watch his u tube channel for a year and have learned a lot from him. I would recommend this book very highly. :)

If like me you enjoy the feeling of having created a community of Manga characters, the natural progression is to have them interact with your own Manga world. Mark Crilley helped me to understand perspective ,something I failed to grasp at school. The scenery is as structured as the cast, this suits me perfectly. Mark walks us through at at gentle pace in a logical order. Towards the end of the book he guides the reader through making their art into professional looking comics. Mark Crilley is a fabulous artist. I always feel enthusiastic and feel I have achieved a greater understanding of Manga and art in general. If you have not seem him on YouTube yet check him out. A lot of the techniques can be seen happening in his videos. I have had lots of comments on how good my drawings are recently and I owe a lot of this to Mr Crilley. cheers Mark keep up the good work.

Wer sich noch nie mit Perspektive und Fluchtpunkten befasst hat, erfährt hier in kurzer Zeit worauf es ankommt, wenn man perspektivisch zeichnet. Ob mit ein, zwei oder drei Fluchtpunkten - die Einführung ist kurz und bündig und sofort umsetzbar, was mir besonders gut gefallen hat. Keine langatmige Theorie - sofort Praxis und sehen, ob alles so stimmt wie es beschrieben wurde.Wer sich das erstemal mit perspektivischen Zeichnungen beschäftigt, erhält hier zu einem fairen Preis ein gutes Einführungswerk.Sehr zu empfehlen.

Guida utile ai primi passi dei futuri fumettisti, con dritte tecniche utili e spiegate in modo semplice, anche per chi l'inglese non lo "mastica" perfettamente.

Excellent tutorial by Mark Crilley
