DESCRIPTION:
In a tangentially relevant closing interview, Heinz Schuller, art director at Microsoft's Fasa Studio, delivers generalities about how to break into the field of digital-game design. From School Library Journal Grade 5-8-Hart offers budding cartoonists a mix of basic instructions and savvy technical advice for creating a wide variety of generic giant robots, robotlike craft, cyborgs of both sexes, and bad-guy types ("Evil Scientist," "Corporate Villain," etc.), then posing them for maximum visual effect. .

Most Japanese mecha animation features giant robots in epic battles. If it can fly, swim, fire a weapon, explode, or destroy stuff, it's mecha. Mecha Mania demonstrates how easy it is to draw fantastic mecha vehicles, robots, space stations, and more. From the Gigantor animated TV series in the early '60s to today's Neon Genesis Evangelion, mecha is the king of anime. These giant robots are as tall as buildings-and teenage heroes enter the robot's cockpit and navigate it like a fighter jet. Also included are informative interviews with a company that creates mecha-based games and a Japanese publisher of mecha. The 300 step-by-step illustrations make it simple for anyone to master this wildly popular comic book genre and achieve dramatic results. Whether one's a beginning or professional artist, Mecha Mania is the best how-to reference ever published for mastering this hot, hot comic book art.. Mech

I don't think that there is enough things to inspire the mind for drawing original mecha. Instead
