If you want to draw anime and you use a book, DO NOT buy the "How to Draw Manga" series by Ben Dunn!!
His girls have really skinny waists and these Tsunade sized boobs. The guys are really girly, too. His style annoys me.

I know and I think he's a pervert when I look at his drawings.

There are a few other guys who have sections in his books and they are much better than he is. Why aren't they doing the series? Why horrible Ben Dunn?

I taught myself how to draw and developed my own anime-esque style reminiscent of Katsuhiro Ôtomo and Tetsuya Nomura with a more american feel.

I just looked at my manga collection and tried to draw the characters. I'm pretty good now...my style is now a cross between Fruits Basket, Shaman King, and Rurouni Kenshin... but my favorite drawings are my collection of Tao Ren sketches. I <3 drawing Ren.

I taught myself how to draw and developed my own anime-esque style reminiscent of Katsuhiro Ôtomo and Tetsuya Nomura with a more american feel. I taught myself, too. At first, I really wanted to draw more realistic people, like Final Fantasy. But then I fell in love with Yuu Watase's art, so now it's anime style. What does mine look like? I don't know enough artists to determine a cross. Here's a sample (note: I drew this a while back) ClickyWhy did I use pencil on that?? Here's one I did just today: Clicky AgainI think it's hard to tell when you do fanart.

Le sigh. XD
My friend wants to learn to draw. She's not that bad right now and she could do very well, but everytime she draws something and she doesn't like it, she gives up.

My mom hates most anime, except Fruits Basket. I mean, she doesn't mind if I watch it, but she only watches the GIRLIEST ANIME. (I like lots of fight scenes) And we were watching subbed Shaman King and I had to explain EVERYTHING TO HER! sample dialouge: Mom: So...why does the weird guy in the girly pants doing with that spear? Me: He's trying to beat people up *doesn't feel like explaining all of Tao Ren's past and his current goals* Mom: Oh. Why does the blue haired guy ...never mind... dad: *walks in* Awesome! Shaman King! *sits down* mom:...hehe! Me: You actually got the joke? Mom: No, that short guy makes me giggle. *outcast and her dad exchange glances* Me and dad: O....k....

Lucky! I have to watch most of it on the internet cuz my dad hates it. Bah. of course, if my mom saw something besides naruto that I've watched, like say... something that wasn't even that bad, like, FMA, she might not like that to much...
