I’m starting to lose heart a little. My art skills are pretty garbage, but I want to make a manga of my own. I want to have my own unique art style and be able to take commissions. I guess I’m just worried I won’t get into the program even though I really want to 😅

I’m working on writing my first one shot. As far as my art goes, I’m definitely better than the average person, but I really need to improve before I can feel confident in myself. This video is helping me add to my To-do for the next few months

I did my first attempt at a manga page. But i took the characters from aot and put them in it. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out eventually I’ll work on my own story but writing is pretty hard and I only know the start and end of my story.

Thank you so much for the help! I really want to create a One Shot but, I'm not sure if I have enough money to join your manga program. Whenever you guys are open for more students, I will book a call

I think this was one of your best, most comprehensive videos yet! The overall examples were varied but well organized. Most of these were things I have been increasingly conscious of over the past 5 months trying to make my own oneshot, but having them all condensed into one video helps to reinforce the concepts and to see the bigger picture. One thought that I had though was that it might be helpful for beginners to see how these elements (varied and narrative-based camera angles, panel flow, effects, manpu) change from genre to genre, and having multiple videos that each go more in depth into a single genre could give more space for each. Keep up the great work, thank you for the video!

Thanks for the advice

I'm glad video like these exist, I'm still a youth artist trying and learning my own development and art skills, and I'm still trying to improve my art style as well including my backgrounds, my real goals life is to make my own comic / manga and get it published and noticed by everyone, at the same time I'm planning on moving back to California and LA to also work on my comics there, good thing i saved up money to buy my own art supplies and program supplies for my art but......the problem is just everything about me my low self-esteem and my confidence feels like losing it everyday but no matter what I try my best to keep going

this video is perfect! I've been struggling to analyze better manga layouts and now with these tips, I understand it now ..👍👍

This really helped alot❤

Lovi it thank you!

Just started my own comic, putting my newbie art skills into practice. And yes totally guilty of this. Mainly as I'm not confident to push my skills. I am doing one page a day and then spending time working on something I would have liked to have done better on that page. I'm seeing improvement. And yeah that does mean slowly getting more interesting panel layouts. You don't get confidence without practice but at the same time don't push yourself too far beyond your skill level. Find the right level of discomfort to push yourself into to improve. It's like going to the gym. Over time your excersies get easy and if you don't increase (weights, speed etc) you plateau. At the same time if you push to hard you might set yourself back months through injury (in the art case, getting frustrated and burned out). Knowing your current limits and knowing where you can push them (and then pushing them a healthy amount) is the quickest way to improve.

I was just struggling with paneling layout yesterday! Thank you so much for posting these tricks and tips! They were absolutely amazing 😊

Thank you for this video 💖

What a great video! waiting for more😃

This is some good stuff! Thanks!

Can ya make a vid about how to make your own characters cause its a lil bit tough

I’ve been drawing for 10+ years and I’ve been working on a story, practicing, learning new skills etc. but my main question is, where in the world do I draw my manga as a traditional artist (ik my question is dumb, i’m a dumby). Just regular A4 paper or is there a magically convenient book online I can buy?? 😭

Tysm for the video

I really have my dynamic moments when I draw panels but I still have a lot of the stiffness being most of the pages

Very useful tips and I'll keep them in mind!

back then I gave up making manga just cuz I sucked at drawing but I swear your channel truly motivated me to finally start making manga again. These days, I’m doing yonkamas and although my art looks garbage for now ahaahah, I love doing it. It makes me feel alive. I’ve watched all your videos and they’ve helped me so much. Thank you

Thanks for Help ❤

You are so helpful

Yooo that's me at 0:27

we need video about art style with genre and target audience

How are the prices now?

Hello, I have a question。 I am 17 years old, so I can not join the course, will be in highschool for another 2-3ish years. But I will be done with my one-shot at the end of the year. Do you have any tips on where I can find people that I can take this journey with/people that can give me tips and tricks? Thanks for reading nontheless!

Very informative video, thanks again. A couple of questions. 1) How much will the one-shot program cost? 2) Can the next video be on how manga is written? Last year I took a comic book writing class and I want to know if there are any differences in the process.

How what type of paper do you use??

I am still working on my lion king project

How to develop our characters desing its look like a cartoon how i change into anime or manga

My manga will be like ninja kamui and jujutsu kaisen combined and i mean the action sequences and emotion just wait for me to get money to buy the supplies since im going traditional manga

❤

Forgive me @aphlearntodrawmanga, but is there a reason I'm not getting an answer on the cost of the one-shot program?

Toiyotaro should watch this video

If you want to create a manga that is not boring,you can take some inspiration from Dog Niqqa manga.

Mam i am from India and want make a manga but i get so many problems and demotivation and my friends not support me for it so what i do 😢

Sometimes the problems these videos mentions are what I am trying to achieve :") (Like for some reason some time ALL my manga panels becomes dynamic :") )

🌺

When I did my first manga pages for some reason I didn’t have the problem with it being stiff in my freshman year of high school when I first started taking art serious it was dynamic and the rest of my pages I actually liked it and it looks like a manga but the thing is my backgrounds I just can’t get them even when I watch videos😭 it’s like they looks like flat bricked structures

@aphlearntodrawmanga (edited, because I found it myself already) footage from 6:21 to 6:23 is 僕の原稿ができるまで /The making of MANGA by 河上だいしろう Reason I wanted to know is because it pointed out an interesting way for gathering ref material for backgrounds, that being Google Street View. keep in mind that you cannot 1:1 convert the images there into background because 1) copyright 2) low res 3) images warped due to how it's shown and how street view creates the panoramic view 4) all images shot from a roof-mounted camera, so height is always above normal person's eye-level

i am guilty

My manga have a variety of panels and angles but background wise it's sh!t

Spoiler flash bang

early
