Chibi! The Official Mark Crilley How-to-Draw Guide

If you want to draw chibi, this is a good reference.

This is another great drawing book created by, Mark Crilley. It looks as if this book is more for those who are familiar with drawing or at least familiar with Mr. Crilley's Youtube videos. It is more advanced. His book, Mastering Manga has details on how to section out and space every detail from eyes, to head, to body, etc. This does not. It's not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation.If you are looking for a more advanced book on drawing Manga/Chibi this book is for you. If you are a beginner and need things spelled out more, you can still buy this book as inspiration and buy his book, Mastering Manga for step-by-step detailed how-to's.

If course maybe my rating is biased because I love his youtube channel after finding it recently. Still there is something about how many examples he gives on chibis, not just one that has step by step then the rest are just one picture. There are quite a few chibis to draw step by step, there is a variety of chibis also. The thing that really clinched my into buying it though was examples on how to put your chibis (or could be any art) on merch. Not that I want to even sell it but I can use them for cards, or decorations.

I love this book. It gives great line by line instructions. If you are a true beginner, this book is for you. I am not an illustrator or artist by any means. Day by day, following the directions, I am getting better. I did a 21 day challenge and the improvement from my first picture to my last was remarkable.

Great. It's the kind of book you want to just sit down and do each lesson straight through, and then use for reference later on. Mark does a good job of changing it up and taking you through the process of building, not just drawing, the illustration. Like his other books, it's kind of a 'wax-on, wax-off' effect. Just do it for a while, and then you'll realize you're better at it overall.If you haven't checked out the author's (very popular) youtube channel, you definitely should. Very inspiring.

Love the book, just not the condition it came in. It was stated as new but has Bent bottom right corner, scratches on both covers deep enough to feel and clearly visible denting all over the book. Spine at bottom is scuffed and coming up from the book as well. There are also bends in the middle of the pages throughout the book.

The book arrived in good condition, except there was a large half torn off label stuck to the back. I was disappointed as it makes me think the book was a used return from someone else, and this is a Christmas gift.

Great instructional, we love Mark Crilley! Good shipping.Thanks! -Captain

Really enjoyed it and probably the best book of his if you are just starting out as the characters are simpler and more fun. I think if you are on or finished his second manga book you may find it a little too basic.

A simple book to follow and copy draw the examples for a 7 yr old upwards, although I'm using these books to teach my even younger grandson aged 4.

Accidently bought the kindle version then the actual book (which is what I wanted).. The book is great. Lots of beautiful drawings. Clear concise instructions. Exactly what I wanted.

Great book. The author is simply a genius. I cannot wait for his next book. I recommend this book to everyone who wants to learn how to draw chibies.

Bought for my daughters birthday. She will enjoy this so much.
