Manga Practice

**Chibi_Angel** · 09-20-2005 06:17 PM

I've been practicing drawing layouts and screentoning manga style, so I'll be ready to start my manga. What you guys think?

**Remie-chan** · 09-20-2005 06:27 PM

OMG....That's ssooo awesome....! You did such an awesome job...I *heart* how you drew the scences and the layouts are cool.

Please edit the comic page. Use of profanity is prohibited at AF, and posting pictures with profanity is definately -not- an exception.

The way you drew the man's head in the second panel looks VERY strange and distorted. Otherwise, nice work.

Otherwise otherwise, it's not necessary to use screentones. It actually may be a better idea to shade with regular shades of gray. Have you ever scanned an image that was printed in a magazine, resized it, and noticed wierd blotches everywhere in a pattern? That's because of the screentone used in the image. Since comics frequently shrink down the size of pages, this -may- happen.

Do you already have a publisher?

Very very very very nice work keep up the good work and make a lot of pages. I will take a scanner and i will put some pages of my manga to! so we will have a competition lol

so keep training...

Not to be rude Whispers but on you sig it said "Canada will go to hell." So....I think we are equal. I guess I can blurr out the bad word. And thanks for the critique, and nope I don't have a publisher I actually was making a online comic.

Kingkostas: Thank you, I would love to see ur manga. ^_^.

**MistaCloudStrife** · 09-21-2005 01:12 PM

Okay.... I have a question.... Is it japanese manga right to left... or american comic left to right? o.O;;

And I sawa coupleof things... Yeah... what whispers said... The face with the side view... You should keep practicing that....

And also... I think the tone on the guys face should be darker than the tone on his hair... Just by a teeny bit... I think it would look better like that...

And.. that's all I suppose... Good work... ^^

Nnn, "hell" is a much less extreme swear word (some people don't even consider it so) than the one used in your comic page, so it's okay to use that sometimes <_<

Thanks for editing =)

Ahh. Welll in that case, nevermind =D

What do you use to make the screentones? Digital or traditional manner?

**bms** · 09-21-2005 05:21 PM

Very good.

**Kaoru217** · 09-21-2005 05:29 PM

very cool! i'm actually trying out the manga writing too...of course my drawing skills aren't really good...i still try....

anyways....AWESOME!

**Alien Sinn** · 09-21-2005 05:41 PM

I find it hard to believe that you drew that.

Props to the artist.

However it isn't in the true alignment of a manga book so maybe you did do it.

Manga is drawn and read from right to left and not left to right like american comics are.

**Mira Kaiba** · 09-21-2005 06:11 PM

I love ur manga! I have been trying to do my own, but I can't even draw, so it's kinda a lost cause. Did you take classes or lessons or anything? Looks awesome! I hope to see more!!

**softrain** · 09-21-2005 06:28 PM

omg..thats actually...good

**ThatBurnyFeelin** · 09-21-2005 06:35 PM

Wow! That looks great! I wish I could draw like that!

**YukiSohma^-^** · 09-21-2005 07:42 PM

oooh, i'm going to start a fanclub, who wants to jion, this is so awesome

p.s. I'm serious about the fanclub

**†-Wrath-†** · 09-21-2005 08:10 PM
