Drawing a character holding a firearm convincingly is one of the hardest things to fake. This book gives you 432 live-action photographs of a model in shooting stances, all cleared for tracing, commercial use, and with no credit or usage report required.

Eighteen popular firearm models are covered — handguns, PDWs, SMGs, rifles and shotguns, the kinds you see again and again in manga, anime, games and film. For each gun you get standing and kneeling firing stances shot from both a high three-quarter angle and a low angle, plus prone and seated positions from above, so you can find the viewpoint your panel actually needs.

The guns themselves, based on Tokyo Marui airsoft models, are also documented in front, side and top views, with notes on each weapon's origin and defining features. It works equally well as a quick reference while laying out a page or as a source for figure drawing practice.

The text is in Japanese, but the material is overwhelmingly photographic, so you can work from it visually. Published by Genkosha, 160 pages.
