I suppose the trial version will end in a certain number of days and it won't let you open it unless you purchase the original. The non trial version should be ok~

Ahh...Okay. So I suppose now I should be saving up to get the full version after the trial. |3

Heldrad In reply to Areens [2009-09-27 02:40:36 +0000 UTC]

A4 and 600dpi ^^ I'm not sure about bleed lines, I went for the default settings~

What tones do you use for the skin o.O?

Heldrad In reply to Pae-kym [2009-08-10 02:14:31 +0000 UTC]

I used one of the noise tones and set the opacity to 20%

This is a great guide! Manga Studio can be very confusing. I'm having trouble that when I export it as a .jpg it messes up all the tones and they look pretty horrible.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Heldrad In reply to Triserao [2009-06-27 18:12:31 +0000 UTC]

yeah, I think it's better to export it to photoshop, then you can fix the tones there.

I want to ask! How did you manage to make the balloon text? I'm try to make like yours but it hadn't a tail

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 2

mayumayu13 In reply to AkariShimai [2011-06-26 22:46:24 +0000 UTC]

there's actually a tool that will let you put in a tail.
When you generate the balloon, under the tabs there's an icon of a hand, next to it; a curve, a line and a trash can. The Curve tool will give you a curved tail and a the straight one, a straight tail.

AkariShimai In reply to Heldrad [2009-06-10 21:34:39 +0000 UTC]

How?

And could you tell me how to finish adding an effect? Because even after I doubled click the "X" sign, it doesn't worked

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Heldrad In reply to AkariShimai [2009-06-11 22:29:02 +0000 UTC]

By drawing the circle with the ellipse tool and the tail with the pen ^^~

What kind of effect do you mean?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

AkariShimai In reply to Heldrad [2009-06-14 07:14:17 +0000 UTC]

You know.. Speed effect.

But after I check it later, I figured out that the Layer Properties doesn't want to show up too even if I click it.

Do you had an idea? I do not know what's wrong?? I check my computer, but the mechanic said that my computer didn't had any viruses.

I uninstall it and install again, but the result was same

Heldrad In reply to AkariShimai [2009-06-15 01:27:39 +0000 UTC]

sorry, I have no idea what's wrong D: It works fine for me.. Maybe you should check some troubleshooting sites?

not sure if that helps... You could try asking there.. where more people can help you o3o~

Phantom-Akiko In reply to ??? [2009-03-02 19:51:46 +0000 UTC]

How long did it take you to make one page? Γ΄o

And do you draw the lines with your mouse?
I usually scan my works and colour them with photoshop 7, because I'm not really good with drawing with the mouse ^^Β°

Heldrad In reply to Phantom-Akiko [2009-03-02 20:07:47 +0000 UTC]

No, I use a tablet ^^~
And one page took me around 8 hours... x.x

Phantom-Akiko In reply to Heldrad [2009-03-02 20:28:34 +0000 UTC]

Hmm...I guess a tablet only exist in MS? I'm currently downloading it, so I can't see it right now^^Β°
Well, that's not much more time...I need around the same time for a page in photoshop, sometimes even more...

Heldrad In reply to Phantom-Akiko [2009-03-02 20:32:47 +0000 UTC]

no, a tablet is not something you download xD it's a tool... It's a board on which you draw using a digital pen, you use it instead of a mouse...
Look for them on e-bay or amazon...

I'm very new to this so please forgive me for any stupid questions.
I'm getting tablet in a few days [It's actually in the mail].
I was just curious but does this also pertain to Manga Studio 4 Debut? I have a hard time understanding this at all simply because I have yet to even use software like this but I plan to use your tutorial right when I get it.
