About this ebook

The ultimate guide to creating chibis!

They populate manga with chunky bodies, oversized heads, and huge expressive eyes. They're schoolgirls and schoolboys, magical girls and mad scientists, fairies and fighter princesses, cyborgs and sci-fi secret agents, bikers and bad samurais, robots and rebel leaders. They've even got chubby pets and zany monster sidekicks! They're chibis!

Excruciatingly cute, highly stylized, and beloved in all manga genres (fantasy, magical girls, shounen, anthro, sci-fi-, and more), without them, manga would barely exist. And now you can learn, step by step, how to draw virtually every chibi out there, how to "chibify" ordinary manga characters—and how to invent your very own designs! Covering facial expressions, those iconic manga eyes, costumes, character interaction, and story settings, Manga for the Beginner Chibis has it all.

My best friends friend got this book. I thought it was just another cheap drawing book, so I asked to borrow it for the night to test it out. His friend is awesome so she said yes......... so I took it home that night. After i did my hmw, I sat down, grabbed the book and started to draw, i started to see how they explained what to do....... I am so glad i got the chance to try it.................... I am in 6th grade and I think that it is a great gift for kids in 7th, 6th, 5th, 4th, and even 3rd graders. In my opinion it is the best manga book that I have seen so far.....................................................if you decide to get this book then... good luck ! <3<3<3<3<3 HAVE FUN <3<3<3<3<3
