You are ready, grasshopper, ready to draw fantastic martial arts comics. Let Sensei Steve Miller guide you.

The martial arts are all around us, and millions of children and adults prove that every day, by taking classes in karate, tae kwon do, kickboxing, kung fu, and other martial arts. Now Steve Miller shows how to turn that interest in the martial arts to the visual arts in Hi Yah! How to Draw Fantastic Martial Arts Comics.

Readers will learn how to capture authentic, accurate martial arts poses on paper, so that even beginners can turn the bodies of their characters into living weapons that kick, punch, throw, block, and chop their way onto the page.

A brief history of martial arts around the world and an overview of the Tao of drawing are followed by detailed step-by-step instruction on fluid anatomy, pressure points, punching and hand strikes, jumping, kicks, blocks, throws, weapons, warriors, drawing convincing confrontations, and super-powerful combatants. The book contains 50 color illustrations and 200 black-and-white illustrations.
