SHOJO Sketchbook Draw Manga Characters with Markers. A Guide and Templates for Coloring

The way to the hearts of shojo manga fans lies through… color! Step-by-step descriptions and artistic life hacks will help you turn flat black-and-white illustrations into bright portraits of romantic heroes. Transfer the template drawing onto paper or work directly in this guide; stock up on your favorite drawing supplies — in our case, alcohol-based markers, colored pencils, and pastels — and off you go! Create bright, vivid images using simple artistic techniques, blend colors, add shadows, and give each image volume, depth, and dynamism — you will not only learn to copy finished references but also refine your marker drawing skills to easily create your own characters. Isn't that a reason to come up with a few sketches for your own manga? The eighth model is a bonus for the creative challenge!
