To be CGed. Gonna be my third Cg. x3

Well now I know who to ask if I'm having problems with getting my drawings to come out right... lol

Interesting. Just wondering, what are the titles of the how to draw books you read? The books I have (I currently have 6 of their books) are titled "HOW TO DRAW MANGA" then what they are about. They also have volume numbers(or are outlined in a bubble filled in with yellow), at the very bottom on the side of the book (forgot what that part was called) it has the letters "JPT,"and finally at the top of the side it has a little chibi looking person with a litte square background of red.

PS. I only described mine to see if we were reading the same things, or if you had seen any books that look like my discription.

Edit: I will be posting a couple pictures once I can get to a scanner. sweatdrop

Mine look like

How to draw
xxxMANGA

I've got "Bodies and Anatomy" "Costume Encyclopedia: Everyday fashion" "Illustrating Battles"

Then I've got "How to Draw Anime and Game Characters" 'volume 2: expression emotions' and 'voume 3: bringing everyday actions to life'

Then I've got "Draw your own manga" 'all the basics' and 'beyond the basics'

Hey, we read the same books. xd

Edit: I have "Illustrating battles" "The Basics of Character Drawing" "Making Anime" "Getting Started"

I also have "volume 8: Super Basics," but I like the styles in the other books alot better than this one.

Time for art! My scanner's broke so I had to take pictures of them, but they're here.

^Avi art I made for someone.

Edit: Please leave any suggestions.

Wow Chaos! Those are really good. The only suggestions I could think of we that the arms on the 2nd and 3rd pictures looked a little strange. On the second, the arm coming in from the right seems a little out of proportion. On the third, the arms look great but they're kinda hard to spot with the wings there. They kinda just blend into the body. Next time you might try putting them out a little further so that her hands are on her hips or something, coloring the picture may make them easier to spot also. Other then that, I love them. I could never do anything like that; keep up the good work! ^.^

Thank you, I'll try to remember that next time. 3nodding
