This is a book or magazine about drawing techniques or model construction techniques.
Popular robot designer Kyoryu Kuramochi thoroughly explains how to draw adorable "super-deformed" robot characters in this book! The robots that appear in this book are mainly friendly-looking "mini characters" about 2 to 4 heads high; the author's original design system presents three types of mini character robots. The "standard type" is from 2 to 3.25 heads high, and is both cool and cute; the "high-resolution type" is from 3.5 to 4 heads high, with an emphasis on coolness; and the "mascot type," ranging from 2 to 2.25 heads high, has cuteness as its main priority.
Chapter 1: Basics of Deformed Characters -- discusses the basic idea of the three types of deformed robots, and explains each feature during the drawing process.
Chapter 2 -- Design of Parts -- explains in detail how to draw the head, torso, shoulders, arms, hands and legs.
Chapter 3: Application of Fighting Poses: 7 Case Studies -- seven illustrators propose methods to draw an original deformed robot. Illustrators include Junichi Kanzono, Susagane, Takashi Hirano, Mototaro, Niyan, Kotaro Ando and vivi.
Chapter 4: Further Development of the Range of Robo Design -- expand the world of deformed robot design with cute female robots, or draw a "Mecha Musume" with robot parts attached to a mini character.
