What are some good Drawing Books for Beginners?
My niece and nephew who are 5th & 6th graders and myself(12th Grade) would like to learn how to draw. What are some good updated drawing books that we can use.
The reason why I aksed was because, my 12 year old nephew likes to draw Dragon Ball Z, Sonic The Hedgehog and Boy Shows. And my 10 year old niece and myself would like to do Fashion Design(Everything from Shoes to Sunglasses to Clothes) She likes Bratz and things. I have some questions.
1)What are some basic books that will teach us how to draw?
2)Are there any Character Drawing Books
3)If a person has a Talent in Coloring very well what kind of job can they get with that?

There are many different how to draw books for children. Its nice to see that you are into helping kids do what they love to do. Any book store you go to will have several types of books on drawing. Even your local library would have some.
As for the talent, you can maybe get into something like making posters or banners, or even window drawings that you see on the windows of certain shops and stores. I hope this helps.

Manga for Dummies is exactly what you’re looking for. It is a primer into character design, figure drawing (of course very vague, but still good for beginners), line drawing (cartooning), and other stuff. It is really easy to follow and almost everything mentioned in the text is illustrated.

1.) Can’t say, any woudl work fine, but the best way is to draw a lot just yourself and random objects…
2.) For character drawing…”How to Draw Manga” books are awesome. I love them to death; they give such great ideas and such.
3.) Maybe in animation, they have a section for coloring in the drawings?
I hope this helped
