In this complete coursebook, award-winning author and manga illustrator Shinji Matsuoka provides 80 full-color manga drawings by talented professional artists as case studies to show you how to improve and upgrade your own drawing skills. The illustrations serve as examples showing you how to use the time-honored principles of composition and perspective to create balance and stability, establish focus and direct the viewer's eye dynamically around the artwork. In hundreds of detailed notes and tips, Matsuoka also teaches you how to use color, shapes, framing, shadows and focal points to communicate your stories in a clear and engaging way.
