Hey Kids! Learn How To Be A Manga Artist In 14 Days

Just fourteen! That’s two weeks. This kit will turn you into a manga artist. All you need is skill.

Oh, and a desire to work in a grossly underpaid industry. But hey, this isn’t about money. This is about manga.

Dubbed 14 Day Manga Artist Course, the kit is aimed at youngsters and comes with six lessons that show you how to do things like draw manga hair as well as tips on how to use a pen like a manga pro.

As noted on Kaden Watch, one of the coolest things about this kit is that kids can send in their manga drawings either by post or email and a manga pro will correct them.
