[Machine Translation] This is an illustration making book that approaches the painting methods of artists who are proficient in watercolor through close-up photography. The making of the cover illustration by Tomofuko is a special edition with detailed photographs of the coloring process! The book takes a close-up look at the gradation of slightly tinted skin, glossy hair, and clear, faintly blurred eyes. The popular watercolor articles of "Mashiki," "Mana Nanagami," "Utsubomi," "Nibi," and "Shuka" from the "SS (Small S)" illustration making series have been reorganized, and a new illustration gallery and Q&A on how to paint with transparent watercolor are also included! It also introduces information on basic painting techniques, watercolor paper testing, the amount of water in the brush, and other important information for watercolor painting!
