Description Basic Photoshop skills required (e.g Layers, able to install downloaded tones/ effects)

Due to a high demand, I decided to finally bring out a tutorial on how I draw my manga 'Shadow Sprinters'

It tells almost everything I know and learnt off my own self taught experiences with manga drawing.

I'm not a professional, I merely started drawing manga pages only this year, though people still wanna know how I did it ;;;;

All I have to say is....

KEEP PRACTISING~!

I only learnt through lots of practise and analysing existing manga for inspirations XD

good job on the DD, I remember reading your comic on mangabullet. Great of you to point out some major details into paneling and such, I think that's more important than drawing techniques.

definitely an inspiration to start my own comic
