Customer Reviews

Great!

I love this book because it has more characters and differences between mystical characters, ie the difference between fairies and elves. It also has basic instruction for how to draw flowing dresses and such, which is needed when you draw mystical creatures alot. Highly recommended!

Fantastic!

This is an incredible bbook. It is extremely imaginative and very thorough. My 8 year old is hooked on it and wants to bbuy more of his books. Chris Hart makes it very easy to draw Japanese comic characters.

Hart does it again!

Chris Hart is a master teacher...anyone who wants to learn how to draw Japanese comics needs to know Chris' books...and his latest does not disappoint. His step-by-step instructions, detailed illustrations and great organization makes this book a must have for anyone interested in this highly specialized area of drawing. I would find it hard to believe there is a better book on the market than this one.

Fantasy Worlds

Great book. I got lost in the world that Mr. Hart created. There are enough monsters in here to scare the bravest among us. Drawings and color pictures were top level. Kept me engrossed for a long time. Highly recommended.

Top level guide book

This is the best. Just discovered this book after a college neighbor of mine recommended I try one of Hart's Manga books; The book is so rich not only the technique but in the creature personality as well, which adds a whole new dimension to my(?) characters. The background images, the scenes are so descriptive - one can almost hear the sounds. Harts guidance encourages exploration and confidence in following your own imagination. My illustration have reached a new level with this book.
