Dude… I’m a 15-year-old complete novice at making comics and I have stories I want to tell. The big problem for me is how to make a striking and interesting first page. I guess I don’t need to, but I want my page layout to be a lot better than I have the skill for. The trick, as you say, is to just do it. So thanks. I love your art style by the way, it reminds me of older manga.
Thank you! And yes, the best thing to do is to just start! You can always edit it later if you dislike how it turned out! (I did that for The Dangers Outside Issue 1's Cover haha) If you want a striking first page tho, I recommend you look at stories from the same genre of your story. It can give you an idea on how others start. tldr. Thank you! And good luck to you fellow 15-year-old creator :)
tbh i really REALLY wanna make my own comic but sadly i'm not creative like i can't even make an oc :') but ur tips gave me the motivation to start making my own comic lol btw ur art is so amazing!!✨ (i always have to mention that lmao)
omg!!! you have a full blown comic! thats so cool!!!!! ive been planning a comic of my own too, i know clip studio has a comic feature but idk how useful that is? do you reccomend it? ( already have clip btw, jsut asking bc id have to learn that lol)
Clip studio is by far the best program to make comics imo. I have been using it ever since i started making comics! I have tried Photoshop and Krita too, but CSP is the best for me. It might be a bit confusing at first if you're using the panel border tool, but nothing impossible!
I am wanting to make a long running comic series myself, but I think before i officially start, I should more so improve my art. If there are any tips on how to improve your art or how to professional render digital art, it would be very much appreciated. Thanks!
For renders study a bit on basic color theory! It is a bit intimidating, but I assure you, it will do wonders. And to improve your art, look up your inspirations and study what is it that you like about them to incorporate some elements of it into your own style! Making studies and experiments is the way to go imo. I wish you luck with your comics! :)
@@AkariTalkz Thank you! I'll definitely look more into color theory and use references for better shading and anatomy. I appreciate the tips! I wish more success for your comic!
1.) i'm broke and can't even afford a NINTENDO 64 CONTROLLER FOR SWITCH and is basically glued to paper. 2.) the way u draw the eyes is basically how i want to, but i can only do this! -> " =)" IM NOT EVEN IN FRICKING HIGH SCHOOL!!! i've been making draft after draft do my book, "Uncle D: Color Crisis", is that normal? (Note: the main title might change and has nothing to do with uncles, its protagonist is literally my profile picture)
Unless your computer's hard drive gets fried and therefore unrecoverable, in which case, buy a mini-drive before hand and save it there.
But what if THAT DRIVE gets fried too!!?? D:
This helps me create my comic series.
another fan of the blue rat, i see...
