Customer Reviews

Manga Rocks

I bought this book and 500 Manga Creatures for my daughter (aged 13). She absolutely loves them, and she draws Manga almost every day, and is getting better, better, and better at it. I would like to see 500 Manga Props, as this would complete the series. I just don't understand why these books cost $50 in Australia, and approx. $15 in the US. Great books - I would definitely buy more from this author!

Great

If you don't have the Manga ClipArt book, then get this item. if you do, don't get this one because you'll have duplicates of everything. This item is a better package deal than the Manga ClipArt book (not the female one, that one is very good and has unique art).

Good Reference book

if you interested in coloring manga picture than this book for you. Also you can see diffrent character sytles. Good resource for beginners.

Great Color Manga Illustrations

The illustrations in this book are in full color, with very nice paper and a few little touches (like getting started tips for using Photoshop Elements) that are great. I was just looking for some inexpensive clip art to touch up some designs, and was very pleasantly surprised by the unexpectedly high quality.
