More How to draw Manga books - Sketching Manga style

I own Vol. 1 and 2.

Vol. 1 was my B'day pres.

But I've been longing for Vol.3, Unforgetable characters. YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

They were not easy to track either and Ebay, Amazon and a few other places had them selling at a crazy price since its publisher, Graphic-Sha had stopped prinitng.

Luckly, a new company has licenced this series and its called PAGE ONE.
Still hard to find though. Not until my best friend found out that Kinokunia in Singapore had them in stock and at $37.34 (singapore dollars).

Totally excited, I immediately went and bought them while sending heaps of hugs and kisses to my best friend. They had Vol. 1,2 and 4 as well . Purchasing Vol.3 , I purchased 4 as well.

And now, they have arived today. Flipping through them, the content is great.

Vol 3.

 Vol 4.

I wasn't able to post up as much examples but you can see some futher examples of these books at these sites I found a while back before I purchased the books.

My B'day Present!

Yay! I've always and am still a huge fan of the 'How To Draw Manga' series by Graphic Sha but I found out recently that the company had stopped printing their books and its really hard to track down a particular book from the series and especially for a cheap price.

Anyways, before they stopped, they released 4 or 5 volumes on a new series titled 'How To Draw Manga ; Sketching Manga Style' and it features really good updated pictures and great drawing tips and advice.It also includes some computer graphic tutes. I got Volume 1 as a B'day Present. Vol.2 I own already as I got it from Amazon. But nowadays, vol.2 sells at $100(USD) or more and Vol.1 too. Though I really would like collect them all. Vol.3 has got to be the most wanted for me.

Sorry if the photos look bad. the book is still reletively new so its hard to fully open it without making a crease on the front of the book (along the spine). You all know what its like to get a new book and wanting to keeping that condition.

Enjoy the pics though. :)
