DESCRIPTION:
Eight styles of reflecting today's characters that represent a blend of such works as Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Death Note and Psycho, are presented along with specific sample works.. This book introduces the techniques needed to draw the ultimate bishonen (literally, "beautiful boys"), vital to Yaoi manga and presents how to draw the typically delicately delineated bishonen characters. Illustrations accompany the carefully explained, step-by-step drawing processes, which are designed to give even beginners a clear understanding of everything from bishonen sketching basics to practical application. Trends in design are also traced, exploring characters from the 1960s, including the work of Shotaro Ishinomori; characters from the 1970s as represented in Keiko Takemiya's The Song of the Wind and Trees; characters from the 1980s, including from the Captain Tsubasa series; and characters from the 1990s up to the present
"If paired with Drawing Bishonen, perhaps a misnamed set" according to Dana Williams. This book is pretty fabulous, I wasn't seeking it for the yaoi either, but to expand my use of male form in cartooning. This book accomplishes that, and more~It contains in depth construction tutorials on the youthful male figure, with great attention to hands and feet, with one of the "How to Draw" series better examples of under drawing and figure construction for proportion and foreshortening. An added bonus are a few guides on how to incor. Great for drawing Guys KBRose I found this book very helpful for learning to draw the male form. There were actually only about six pages or so that had yaoi-scenarios towards the end, but that is easily overlooked when you consider all the other information it has for you.After all, if you can't draw guys in the first place then drawing BL is even more difficult. Which makes all the great drawings this has and the instructions that go with an absolute must-have. And if yo. danielle said More like a how-to draw guys rather than yaoi. More like a how-to draw guys rather than yaoi. Was hoping for posing tip, how to emote scenes.Shipping was fast.
