Manga drawing has several processes - pencil drawing(draft), inking, (erasing all pencil line), painting black parts, and correct mistakes and add highlights with white ink. Then paste "screen tone" (the parts of grey, texture, effect) to finish.
After a brief lecture on the techniques, students may try some manga production tools, such as 3 types of pen-nibs, inks, and screen tones. The lecture will be adjusted to the participants' skill levels but will basically cover how to draw a "manga-type" character.
This is done in a step-by-step manner while the teacher reviews and corrects the participants' drawing and helps them to draw. With each step, there will be a brief lecture or demonstration. If you are an absolute beginner, you can choose one drawing from various references, and copy it with an instructor's help.
At the end of class, you will have completed a piece of art and will be able to take it home as a nice souvenir.
