Hi,
Can someone recommend some good human anatomy and poses drawing books? I’d also like some how to draw manga book recommendations as well, but I know it is near impossible to find good manga drawing books.

Some options :
— visit a library or bookstore & browse through the many drawing books there. Make a list of the books that you feel comfortable with/interested in. Once you have the tiitle, publication, etc. you can buy online or wherever you get a good deal
— ask art teachers at school for their recommendations
— browse through amazon.com & such other book sites for drawing books for beginners. Read their reviews, etc. to get a feel of what others are saying.
— Visit blogs on drawing & you may find some good support groups, personal experiences, etc.
