Okay... here's the deal. I'm making a comic LOOSELY based on my MMA career, but with a twist.
.

.
But first, I need some help with some stuff.
.First I'd like someone (preferably good at perspective and art and anime) to help me with profiles of the guy. I'm a little baffled on how to draw him in front profile.
. Second, I'd like to be informed on how action poses would work.
.Third, your support and good criticism on my manga and how I can improve the drawings and, to a very small degree, the story.
Here's a Pic...


I'm going to thank you ahead of time for your support and help.

you're not Japanese, therefore you're not making manga

you're making a comic

nice to see a webcomic artist on mg
the girl is cute btw

K thanks.

So, the image's guy's side face is strange. The Nose is in the middle of the face, while the rest of the face is sideways,
so the nose should be on the side of the face
The girl doesn't have a nose.
Also, when you observe more, the torso and the waist look dislocated because of the skirt/dress.

K...
The girl's was there, it was just really faint and the camera didn't help either.
I noticed the waist, but after I did it was too late because everything was already colored and stuff.

But anyways, thank you for your constructive criticism. I appreciate it.

Well, the guy's face is really scrunched up, first off. That or his face is actually that small, which it isn't judging by the rest of him. I'd recommend looking at other people's profile drawings for reference, or a tutorial if you're not that used to drawing profile. As another note: to a certain point, manga does rely on realistic anatomy. You do know the 'half the height of the face is eyes, half that is nose, half that is mouth' thing, right? Yeah, that's really helpful. His neck also appears directly connected to his chin, which makes it far too thick.

Also, do you happen to have a scanner? (You've probably mentioned it in your art topic, but I'm too lazy to look.) That might work out better for you than a printer, provided you flatten the paper out with a heavy book or something.

Aha... yeah... some really good stuff.... oh yeah, and I know the "half of head is eyes and half and half and in between" and crap. Yeah I thought that his neck looked ridiculous too. The drawing was out of a sketchbook with no wrinkles. It must've been the camera and editing I did, because the page was nothing but the drawing.

Thank you for your time, I'm glad you took some time to help me out. It'll help!

Any Pages Yet?

No... I'm working on a story right now... I got school and stuff so I don't have lots of time.
I got one page done so far.


I see your going old school with Ninja_Pig_Pro.

Summer is ending for me...
Btw, Clubby Bear is older then Ninja Pig in terms of names, used it in the expansion forums.

Will the manga be published Deviant Art?

I don't have a DeviantART account...

Uh... I don't really know what I'm gonna do with it. I guess I'd like...

video it or something to get all of the pages in.


I'm working on a couple but before I do that I need to get some perspective and anatomy straightened out.

If anyone likes... they can do a quick sketch of the guy (Haiiro) in front profile.

is it going to be in japanese?

Do you want it to be in Japanese?

yes
