Detail is a enchating charm in a work of art. One of the unique things that can be found in the manga style drawings. This certainly requires heavy attention during the process from the artist, but also a logic.
Yup, how can Manga Drawing Style can be so detailed, of course, because the Artist is looking directly to the object or photo for reference.
In Japan itself, there has been a lot of editions of books about the size of magazines with a thickness hundreds of pages, about how to draw figures/objects. And every series focus on specific figures and location settings, complete with images in the form of photos including sample results if drawn. As Misskomik once saw, collection at Machiko Manga School Jakarta. The discussion is in each title(in Japanese) of books, about Human figures in Hospitals, in Schools, and etc.

From manga books Misskomik often reads the extra page, some kinda short diary from the artist. Their journey in the process of making the manga, and how they try to create a work of art that may attach the audience with the story nuance and environment. One of the many ways is, they collect references of the location layout or even travel themselves to the accordance location in the story. To absorb more inspiration, immersion, and get more pictures references.
Also, Misskomik often finds the original reference from a public figure that was used in manga covers. Unfortunately at that time, it did not occur to Misskomik to document the drawings as an example that could be included in this topic.
