Stop reading Loomis and start reading Hitokaku if you want to draw anime/manga

Does anyone have an English translation? You can copy the pictures but so much is lost not being able to read the words.

If I tried to do Loomis and didn’t read any of it I’d struggle and fail

Unfortunately no but In the book he literally says just to sit down and copy the book lol. I still think you can learn some things even if you cant completely understand

Every single page is basically Loomis except he completely ignores the most critical part of the construction which is you do not construct on a flat plane but rather a rounded one. You have to give him credit for foreshortening the forms and keeping it in perspective, but unless you know that faces are not flat you're going to shoot yourself in the foot.

What happens when you get bored of drawing doritos chip girls and want to sketch other characters with odd head shapes and different body type. What then? Will you then realize loomis is superior?

you need head and hands, because that covers head
then figure drawing. for the whole body.
successful drawing just covers traditional perspective, and fun with a pencil isn't really needed.

I've kvetched about Loomis' vague head drawing method (in the sense of understanding the planes of the head), but today his book Figure Drawing has arrived from Amazon and I skimmed it through. Wow, what a great instructional book. For sure, it's the first step, forget about precise anatomy and planes for now, but this step will keep me busy for months.

Again, it's a well though-out, real instructional, practice book. Highly recommend.

Somehow, I can see why Japanese artists always crash when they have to draw not kawaii uguu Japanese anime faces or the caricatures of the western people. Slapping eyes on balls doesn't give the faces any features. It's still slapping gradient eyes, just on balls. I'm not even an expert but I can see that.

Fun With a Pencil

It’ll take you from: Won’t even attempt to draw something out of awkward embarrassment.
To: I can tell how most things are drawn, and am comfortable at least trying.

From there you just need to practice and can use any additional resources to continue your journey.
