About this book

100 CHARACTERS. 6 STEPS EACH. 600 STEP-BY-STEP DRAWINGS.

Tired of drawing books that show a circle, then — somehow — a finished character? This book never skips.

Every character starts as a plain circle and grows one honest layer at a time: construction guides, face outline, features, hair and clothes, details, and a clean coloured finish. Nothing moves between steps — the face you draw in Step 2 is the exact face you colour in Step 6 — so you always see precisely what each step adds. That is why beginners actually finish these characters.

Inside: 20 faces · 20 hairstyles · 20 full bodies & outfits · 15 chibi · 15 action poses · expressions — plus a Japan Special chapter: samurai, kimono beauty, shrine maiden, ninja and festival dancer, drawn with the same 6 steps.

And after every character: a practice page. Trace the faint guide, then draw your own version in the empty frame. 100 characters, 100 practice pages.

All you need is a pencil and an eraser. By character 100, you will not be copying any more — you will know the method that draws any character you can imagine.
