Book Reviews of Manga Clip Art: Everything You Need to Create Your Own Professional-Looking Manga Artwork
Book Review: Soooo worth it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this with the intention of practicing digital painting, and it is so worth it! I've read reviews (here and other sites) of people saying that they had trouble with the CD, that images were "missing" or files wouldn't open. Here's what I have to say about that: I have Vista, and thus far have had absolutely no problems with opening or reading files. Yes, the files are HUGE (the characters are mapped as Photoshop layers), so it takes a second or two for them to open. As for "missing" files, as the book explains, and the CD shows, some of the specific character traits are filed under other character titles. Overall, this is a completely fun and useful tool . . . it allows me to create wonderful characters (I can't draw at all!) in no time. I would highly recommend this as a source for other computer artists and anyone else with a basic knowledge of working with Photoshop (or Elements) layers.
