INTRODUCTION

A sweaty brow. A nervous smile. A wink of the eye. These

are all ways to use facial expressions to convey emo-

tion in a story. In manga, a great deal of information about

the action shines through in the expressions and poses

of the characters. Manga (mahn-gah) is a style of art that appears in

Japanese comic books and graphic novels. The style is unique: charac-

ters typically have large, pronounced eyes and slender, angular bodies.

Drawing manga is fun because it allows you to create any kind

of character you want. There really isn’t any genre or style of story

that manga hasn’t affected. What can be tricky about drawing

manga, though, are the facial details. But if you follow the step-

by-step directions in this book, you can ensure your characters’

eyes lash “determined” and not “depressed.” Eyes are crucial. For

instance, a sassy girl might have longer eyelashes when she’s trying

to win the attention of the school heartthrob. But when he turns

her down, you could draw dark rings around her eyes to show her

unhappiness. It’s important to remember that every character

you create can be truly unique when you add emotive lourishes.

A pose can also say a lot about the character you draw.

Suppose you have created a cool mech warrior deep-space pilot:

Does he stand up straight and take charge of every situation,

or does he slouch with his hands in his light suit pockets, waiting

for the action to come to him? Conveying movement in a static

image can be hard, but with practice you’ll be able to make sure

your character looks like he’s springing into action and not crouch-

ing scared. So grab your gear and get drawing!
