INTRODUCTION

I work in the concept art industry as a character designer and art educator. Design Your Own Anime and Manga Characters is written not only for those who approach art as a hobby, but also for those who are pursuing art professionally.

This book lays out the basic fundamentals and foundations while also offering tips for those who want to take it to the next level. At its core, Design Your Own Anime and Manga Characters is about creating characters step by step, with suggestions throughout for readers to try many things. Ultimately, I want readers to create characters in their own way, and not just copy the examples in this book.

Except for the gestures and joints, it might be hard to connect the process of going from A to B.

If youve just begun your drawing journey, know that one day youll be drawing the complex muscles seen on the previous spread. Starting with figures that are more efficient for drawing characters will make it easier for the future.
