Suppin – A collection of rough illustrations before line preparation and coloring

This book introduces works by about 30 illustrators, naming rough sketches and doodles before coloring and painting as “Suppin” (The meaning of “No makeup”).

It offers a new charm of illustrations that can’t be noticed in the finished works.

While there are opportunities to see illustrators’ finished works, chances to see their line drawings and unfinished doodles are rare. However, before a single piece sees the light of day, there are many rough drafts and shelved doodles. These rough sketches possess unique charm and individuality that are too precious to keep only in the artists’ hands.

[Recommended for:]
– People who want to enjoy not only finished works but also rough sketches and line drawings
– People who like to see the production process such as illustration making
– People who want to know the behind-the-scenes of illustrators’ work
– People who want to study how to draw character illustrations by looking at professional line drawings
