Super Pose Book - Nude [Japan Import] Tankobon Softcover – May 1, 2012

Here's the table of contents:はじめに・・・4 introduction体のバランスとプロポーション・・・5 balance and proportioning of the body立ちポーズ・・・6 standing poses座りポーズ・・・76 sitting poses膝をつくポーズ・・・92 poses on one's kneesイス・箱などを使ったポーズ・・・102 poses using things like boxes and chairs寝ポーズ・・・127 lying poses続編のお知らせ・・・143 series advertisementAs an example to the size of poses you can generally expect to find throughout this book: in the standing section, the highest number of pose pictures on a page is 4, with one being a series of 4 alternate angles after a full-page pose, and another being a half-page pose with 3 alternate angles running down the other half of the page. Some poses in this book have as many as 5 or 6 alternate poses on a single page, but there's only a couple of those.Standing poses take up the bulk of the book, with only a handful of sitting and the knee poses. The chair/box poses and the laying poses have the most interesting range of angles. I feel vaguely like they want me to buy more of their books so I can collect a wider range of pose reference photos, but I'm okay with that since I plan to use these to help level up my drawings skills.The book is censored, but I hadn't actually noticed until I got to the sitting portion, since the model is unshaven. The censoring is most obvious from angles where the model's vulva would be clearly exposed due to the angle of the pose.When I bought it (new) it came with both a dust jacket and an obi, if that sort of thing matters to you.

I recently started learning the human anatomy for my digital art class, and I had become quite annoyed by the typical muscle placement type books that were filled with text and had no real images. That is when my instructor told me to get a reference styled book that contained poses. I already had the proportions memorized, but when it came to drawing dynamic poses it took ages for me to even begin working. After a while I checked at a local bookstore then here on amazon I found one. I was a little skeptical about it only having one review at the time, but I'm glad I bought it. The shipping was early in the expected time zone and this book provides various poses at different angles, and now I have a grasp of different styled poses. I'd recommend this book to anyone in need of learning poses.

The model is very pretty and smiles for all the poses in the book. It is a really good reference book for drawing the female figure. It is also a little modest, and the publisher has slightly blurred a couple of places where the genitals show. This is a cultural thing, I assume, and meant to keep the model's virtues intact. This doesn't interfere with drawing, and she is not shaved like in the American pose books, which adds texture to my thinking!

I was not expecting this to be as good as it was. This was an excellent pose book for models and photographers who work with models, far better than any of the previous books I have in my collection. I actually expect to be able to use this to help new models out if we get stuck in thinking of additional poses at any point in a shoot. Very clean shots, well organized. Excellent book.The only negative I can even think of is that it appears to all be one model, having a few different models would have made it even better, but even so it is an excellent reference book.

Fabulous book, along with one other in the series that I have thus far purchased. Beautiful, clear color photography throughout, extremely useful variety of poses and overall a level of quality that you won't find in many of these pose collections. A little costly, and the model's face seems a little on the cute side--that is to say, a little immature--but then I think she falls exactly in line with the Japanese idea of feminine perfection. On balance, I have no doubt that I will continue to buy from this series as often as I can afford it.

I love it!! It’s such a great reference material book, that I’m gonna buy the others! The angles and poses are great, and the picture quality is top notch, so you can really get the details you’re looking for with the hands and feet.

I just recently purchased this books and it's amazing the amount of poses it has, it gives me a clear idea of how the body moves and works. If you're into manga this gives you a clear idea of the proportions you're looking for, the price that is listed is a reasonable price. The amount of nudity is really clear although the genitals are blurred but it does not affect the quality of the photos.

Great quality, great book, very well packaged. Shipping took quite awhile, but that was expected.

Book is well done, photographed. Clear photos. Good poses.

Die Bücher sind echt ein Super Referenzmaterial um Zeichnen zu üben. Nur leider etwas Teuer. Wäre toll wenn man die Bücher auch direkt in Deutschland Erwerben könnte hätte gern noch mehr davon :D.

先輩に勧めらて購入しました。ポーズであったり、明度も高いので、５～１５分間隔でラフデッサンをしました。頭に体の特徴や、シルエットが残りやすい気がします。最初は書籍版を購入しましたが、使っているとボロボロになったのでkindle版を購入しました。ありがたい本です。

最近マンガやイラストを描く人向けと称するこうしたヌードポーズ集は数多くありますがそのなかでもこの本はおすすめできる一冊です約３００カットとありますがひとつのポーズを四方からとらえているのでポーズ数としては１００弱くらいでしょうそれでも少ないという印象はありませんしひとつのポーズを四方から見れるので資料的にわかりやすいですポージングは日常的な動作というより美術的造形的なポーズなのでマンガやイラストの参考にはなりにくいでしょうむしろ美術的なデッサンなどに向いていると思いますモデルはＡＶ女優の小倉奈々さんですがいやらしさを感じさせないさわやかな写真ばかりですまた小倉奈々さんのプロポーションがとても理想的です巨乳でもロリータでもなく肉付きも乳房の大きさもちょうどいい感じです写真撮影もいい腕だとおもいますライティング（照明の当て方）が適切なので肌の質感や、その下の筋肉の盛り上がりなどがよくわかります美術の勉強を本気でする人にとってはデッサンは実際にモデルを前にしてやるのが一番だとは思いますがこれだけ質のいいモデルさんを自由にポージングさせてデッサンできるだけの機会と費用を考えたら二次的資料と割り切っても十分価値はあると思いますもちろん普通の人がヌード写真集として鑑賞するにも耐え得るレベルですただしきわどいポーズ（Ｍ字開脚とか）はないのであしからず

漫画作成用の資料にヌード、グラビア等の本を探しており、この本を見つけました。このシリーズの幾つかの見本を見てその中でこれが良いと感じ購入決め手は胸の下の影です、こういう言い方が正しいかわからないですが漫画的な胸と言いますか、丁度いい胸の張りで資料としてもってこいでした。体全体も綺麗な方でポージング、アングルも多く参考になります。一般的なヌードデッサン等の本は完全な知識用の本が多いですが、こちらは撮り方がある程度官能的で「見せる」というのを意識している感じで漫画に使うのにとても有効に感じました。
