[Publisher's Comment]
"Beautiful middle-aged men" is a highly sought-after category in BL manga, novels, anime, and more.

With the recent boom in "ikeoji" (handsome older men) even among live-action actors, it may be that the charms of mature men, such as the sexiness, melancholy, and stability that only come with age, appeal to women.

This book carefully explains the specific steps for portraying these subtle nuances.
It is packed with very useful content for anyone who wants to create manga or design characters, including the essential features of drawing beautiful middle-aged men, such as wrinkles, beards, body shape, and clothing, as well as how to distinguish between different types of characters.
