PREORDER Relaxed Pose Catalog Vol. 6

The sixth installment in the pose reference photo series for artists and manga creators focuses on the everyday lives of male high school students.

Four teenage male models wear various outfits, including blazers, Japanese-style school uniforms (gakuran), and sportswear, while performing a wide range of poses.

Use this book as a source of inspiration when creating scenes of students spending relaxed moments in their daily school lives.

The book includes two types of pose collections:

• Background Poses: Full scenes with environments to help visualize the situation.
• Simple Poses: Isolated poses focusing only on the figure.

The first half features background poses photographed in locations inspired by after-school activities and school breaks, including classrooms, stairways, rooftops, gyms, and parks. There are also relaxing camp scenes featuring students resting on futons in a traditional Japanese room.

The second half features 39 simple poses, photographed from three angles:

• Low angle
• Eye level
• High angle

The example section also provides clear explanations of key points for turning the references into illustrations.

This book is ideal as drawing reference material for:

• Figure drawing
• Manga creation
• Illustration
• Commercial publications
• Doujinshi (self-published works)
