New Manga for magazin and How to make manga

In general, the work of drawing manga includes five work steps.

First stage. First, design the character and decide the plot of the story. The plot includes the stage of the story, the setting of the hero and the heroine, the theme of the story, points that you want to appeal to the reader, and so on. In that case, there are major restrictions. That is the number of pages assigned to that manga in the magazine. Basically I draw manga between 20 and 24 pages.

Second stage. It is the most important task and there is work called "name". It is the role of this work to convert the plot to a picture. The most important reason for this work is that this work greatly influences the final manga's performance. Picture placement, feelings embraced by characters, lines, camera angles etc are controlled in this work. I will keep the picture at a very rough stage. By doing so, it becomes easy to review and rewrite the flow of composition and story many times.

Third stage. It is a draft process. I will draw a picture that matches the pose and composition you specified in the previous step. If "name" is successfully made, this work will proceed smoothly. The important thing in this process is to clarify all ambiguous areas before proceeding to the next process. If you leave behind an ambiguous part with time, eventually you will get lost in the next step.

Fourth step. It is the stage of inking. I will draw characters and backgrounds with clear lines while applying strength to lines.

Fifth step. It is the process of finishing. I will add shades of gray to the screen. Also add black shadows to increase the contrast of the screen. Enter the highlight on the character and write in the background.

In this way, one page is completed.

Drawing manga is very steady and requires patience. Every day, when I wake up I head to the desk, draw a picture, eat, draw a picture and go to bed. There are no holidays. What is there is the patience during work and the pleasure of completion. That way manga is made.

Thank you for your supports.
