HitsujiroboHow to Draw Manga Furries: The Complete Guide to Anthropomorphic Fantasy Characters (750 illustrations)

This book has been an excellent reference to depict anthropomorphic characters w/ distint species-specific characteristics.Combined w/ my practice of 2D & 3D shapes (circles, squares, triangles), & my anatomical studies through Love Life Drawing on YT, I've been able to make great progress.However, where the book excells in explaining the details that separate different species, & different styles of drawing these characters, it only shows you how to draw them in a few limited poses -- by necesity as it covers several species & helpful details on how to draw each, & variations of each.So unless you have enough experience drawing characters, or understanding of drawing 3D shapes, or understanding of human anatomy, you will have to work harder to make use of the information.This is a fantastic supplement to help you delve into the niche of drawimg antrho characters, but it's in no way a replacement or skip drawing fundamentals.

I had the Japanese edition on my wishlist for the longest time and I certainly am glad I waited as I am more confident in my english. beyond the hand with mini goat hooves instead of finger nails which look pretty cursed (don't worry, the other 3 goat hand designs are cute), I, as an intermediate artist found this to be genuinely helpful.Certainly, this is not a book for beginners (assuming you're actually going to use it, buying it for the pretty art is still well worth it) and it focuses more on how to structure your characters and provide examples of how their anatomy could look in a style that is relevant to what is out there on the market, say Brand New Animal or Beastars.At the price, I would easily recommend this to my friends, whereas with the japanese edition with the $30 price tag, here in the west, fell a tad high for me.

This book is great if you want to increase your artistic knowledge. The lessons are simple, even if you don’t have any drawing experience it’s easy to follow. For those who are more advanced, it shows the bones structure of each animal you’re trying to study or draw. It also has a wide range of animals from birds to sea creatures. Over all I’ve had a great experience with this book 10/10Though there’s a problem with the shipping to beware. When I received mine the delivery person just shoved it in my mail box and the book was all folded at first. Thankfully it wasn’t permanent now that I have it for a few months it’s back to a regular book.

Its nice but I wouldn’t suggest it for beginners, so, before you read this book get good at drawing non anthropomorphic (furry) characters

There’s no damages and it’s really good quality! I recommend this book!!

Very Nice
