Designed for aspiring illustrators, Manga Artists' Beginner's Guide to Alcohol Markers by SHIN, Maripori, Yue, Suzu Kawana, Junko Kitamura and Ramiru Kirisaki is a practical paperback guide to getting started with alcohol marker colouring, including popular marker types such as Copics.

Alongside character-focused lessons, the book also covers everyday items such as food and flowers, helping you build confidence across a wider range of colouring scenarios. A dedicated workbook section of black-and-white manga drawings makes it easy to practise straight away, whether you are learning to layer, mix and blend colours for anime-inspired art or refining your comic-style colouring approach.
