What specific art materials are recommended for beginners wanting to draw Naruto characters in a comic book or manga style?

For traditional drawing, beginners should start with a reliable set of mechanical pencils (e.g., 0.5mm, 0.7mm with HB or 2B lead), a good quality eraser (kneaded or stick), and smooth drawing paper like Bristol board or manga paper. For inking, fine-tip pigment liners in various sizes (e.g., 0.05mm, 0.1mm, 0.3mm, 0.5mm) are essential for crisp lines. If coloring, alcohol-based markers (like Copic or Ohuhu) or high-quality colored pencils can achieve vibrant anime colors.
