Question:

Help with creativity?

I need help with my small comic books(They're ashcan I think.)
So, how do you draw manga? I need some kind of realistic drawing style, please help!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: If you really want help, you should look at a book that teaches you (since I haven't found any teachers who teach anime drawing. I like it too and I think it's possible to blend it with a slightly different style to make it more realistic. And some manga styles are realistic (you know, the ones that don't have the outrageously huge eyes and traingular mouths etc.)

There's a series by Tadashi Ozawa that I found pretty helpful. It's called How To Draw Anime and Game Characters

Here's vol. 1

Here's vol. 2

They go step by step on how to draw poses, how to add details, examples of realistic and exaggerated styles, examples of eyes, hairstyles etc. I think it's worth taking a look at.

Hope this helps!
