The sixth book in the bestselling Master Guide to Drawing Anime series, Expressions & Poses focuses on using principles of figure drawing to create anime characters and scenes.
In this new title, Christopher Hart combines two subjects he is well known for--figure drawing and how to draw anime. The classic concepts of figure drawing are a perfect place to start to learn to draw for the aspiring anime artist. This anime drawing book gives readers step-by-step instructions on how to apply basic figure-drawing principles to the anime style that fans love. Chris covers figure-drawing fundamentals--such as proportions, posture, and poses--along with the finishing touches that infuse anime characters with personality. For example, a simple hand gesture can define an entire scene! This figure drawing book teaches readers how to draw hands and gestures, along with faces, contours, poses, anime costumes and clothing, scenes, and more. Each lesson offers tips and tricks that will demystify the drawing process, giving artists a solid figure-drawing foundation that they can apply to the anime style and beyond.
Suitable for all levels, from beginners who are just starting to learn how to draw anime, to advanced users who want to hone their skills, this is the ideal resource for all fans of anime and manga drawing, and can be used on its own or with the other titles in the Master Guide to Drawing Anime series.
