Book Reviews of How To Draw Manga Volume 28: Couples (v. 28)

Book Review: Excellent book for couples studies!
Summary: 5 Stars

As an artist, I am always looking for books to make my life easier when looking for effective poses to use as reference. This book is exactly what I was looking for and delivered all I expected and more.

Drawing bodies can be hard and drawing two bodies together can be mind-boggling. This book really helps break it down into managable pieces and provides a myriad of poses to study. And some of the manga tricks are very helpful and different than the traditional drawing methods taught in college courses.

One of the best parts of the book is the fact the author included same gender couples in the studies, very important when studying the shape, contour and solidity differences of the male and female form and how they relate to each other in same gender and mixed gender pairings. The pages on the differences about how the arm lengths of men and women line up when wrapped around another body, which changes if the second body is male or female, is fascinating.

This book does contain nudity so the muscles can be studied and referenced so I recommend it for the serious art student or the self-taught artist who has already worked with life studies who is now wanting a book to continue these studies.

The book also includes poses of people in bed together so those inclined not to view these sections should not look at them.

This book does not teach basic drawing skills so the person purchasing this book should already have those skills before using this book.
