Color selection was a hard thing to over for me as well. Especially since its digital medium and you can really blend colors like you can when on canvas.

Response to: Why is manga a bad choice? Posted July 18th, 2013 in Art

Sir im not sure what you dont understand. There are two meanings for the word manga. One is the art style. The other is just the japanese word for comic. We are obviously discussing the first term which is the art style.

Manga is NOT an art style. I wish you would understand that.

Response to: Why is manga a bad choice? Posted July 18th, 2013 in Art

I said so again sir , i know what the term manga means but it has come to represent the specific artstyle used by the majority of the eastern comic artists. At least this is how it is in the western part of the world. When the OP asked , he was obviously refering to an art style and not to a part of the world.

Which is why I said what I said in my first post. Manga has no certain style. People art just rolling with what has become popular, just as they have in Western comics and cartoons. So I say this again to the OP there is nothing wrong with starting with Manga.

There is. Its just that people who have mastered it are able to take steps away from the core and form a personal style based on the principles of manga.
Meaning there is no certain way to draw it if people can add personal style to it and still call it manga.
Also , there has been a dispute about it before so let me clarify this. When i say manga i mean the certain style of art , not every comic produced in eastern countries.

But manga literally is every Japanese comic book, manga is the word for Japanese comic. The first manga's look like in the 40's looked more like Archie than the ones you see now. The style that people use now just became popular in the West which is why more people have adopted it.

Manga in itself is not bad, their is no certain specific way to draw when creating "manga" people have just took what they saw and rolled with it.
