Description Wha-? enchan made a tutorial?
You better believe it! I spent all day on it See what I do when my webcomic is on hiatus?
For those of you who have asked me how it's done, I present to you the step-by-step manga tutorial~~~!
It's very unprofessional...T___T I'm sorry...I do hope it helps though.
And that tachikiri guide I tell you I'll provide here is here-> [link]
Full view to see the tutorial....It's huuuuge O_O Gomenne~~T^T
The mini comic features my characters from the webcomic MAJESTY -> [link]
I know it doesn't make sense...but I had to come up with something fast enough for the tutorial. (It might make sense if you know the characters ;;;; *loser* )
Good Luck~! And enjoy!
Required Tools: The media shown in the first step of the tutorial, Photoshop 5 or higher and ComicWorks.

EDIT: Thanks everyone for all the favs! I'm happy you found this helpful in some sorta way XD;; I edited my site address in the description...and maybe one day I'll fix the address on the tutorial---but it is wrong XD....Remember~~~>enchantma.com!
ANOTHER EDIT: Okay, so the Tachikiri guide isn't working...Nevermind that. Every publishing company has it's own guides anyway but the standard is that the page dimensions should follow a 2:3 ratio.
MORE EDIT: Thank you, for bringing this to my attention but you can find the Tokyopop template if you Google "mechspec5"...She says, "The second link, a pdf file, has the template at the bottom of it"
Now please stop asking me where it is XD;;
FINAL EDIT (I hope): I HAVE A NEW TUTORIAL THAT SHOULD ANSWER WHAT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. Please check it out BEFORE asking questions. Thanks!

Nice Tutorial, this helps others doing the right way...I read the steps...notice also the paneling, and it is the one of the panelings that must be followed, more that it looks like a shoujo style manga. Great Job

NextEpisode1 In reply to ??? [2007-11-19 09:08:56 +0000 UTC]

Very good guide , i have a qwestion thow (im pretty noobish in this area) : is there a way to draw a good manga not using pc? I suck in editing

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

enchantma In reply to NextEpisode1 [2007-11-19 16:37:30 +0000 UTC]

well most professionals don't use a pc, but it's expensive and probably more time consuming. To do that you need to buy manga paper, white/corrective fluid, black india ink, a g-pen or a micron pen-whatever achieves different line thickness, screentones (expensive stuff) and a whole lotta stuff. There are books out there that go "behind the scenes" of famous comic artists. I suggest you do research and find out what your favorite artist uses before you buy anything. It's really helpful to see what you can do with the least supplies to save you time and money.
