Anime Tips on Technique
Instagram artist Yoai does a fantastic job drawing anime characters, and the attention to detail is apparent in Anime Art Class: A Complete Course in Drawing Manga Cuties. All of Yoai’s images are well drawn and colorful. Showing the lovely potential of drawing anime after years of practice. The materials listed are definitely the highest quality drawing tools, and Yoai sets up techniques for drawing success. With a clear and encouraging writing style. Though, this is not a beginner’s drawing book. The majority of the tips and tutorials are for refining technique, or improving drawing design and coloring. The first pencil sketches dive right into the primary shapes of each character. Then for consecutive tutorials, skips basic drawing shapes and instructions. Leaving the reader guessing how Yoai jumps from circles to amazing flowing hair, and draping clothing. Artists familiar with figure drawing can fill in the blanks between each sketch with rough drawing. Without further instruction it is really difficult to get each figure right. Additionally, this book focuses on drawing a few specific characters, and does not teach how to customize or free draw anime. This book is great little workshop that teaches how to refine rough sketching, and how Yoai approaches drawing. Yoai has an anime style that is fun to emulate, and there is a lot of helpful line and coloring styling in this book.
