Description: Draw fierce manga warriors with this step-by-step guide, from heroic samurai to legendary battle stances!
Review Quotes: This series provides step-by-step guides for drawing a variety of objects and creatures. Each book begins with a brief overview of required materials and a short introductory paragraph, different for each subject. The majority of the content consists of illustrated steps presented without accompanying textual explanations. The authors offer no guidance on breaking subjects down into basic shapes or addressing proportion and scale, which may make it difficult for young artists to follow successfully. As a result, readers may struggle to achieve satisfying results. The back matter includes a glossary and suggestions for additional resources. VERDICT The lack of instructional support may lead to frustration for beginning artists. Not recommended.--Cathy DeCampli, Haddonfield PL, NJ "School Library Journal"
