I figure I should stop posting here from now since it seems kinda inappropriate (it is an anime news site afterall). From now on all my stuffs on:

Noooo! You should post here anyway. People may not comment too much but I'm reading it at least. >_<
Your skilled Wildcard, but what's ur day job? I used to do a couple of funnies in newspapers. Not that that compairs to a fully fledged manga or Doujinshi. You gonna try publishing anything? Quite easy to get out there just not so easy making money out of it.

Okay :lol: I'll keep posting then, I didn't think anyone was still reading it here. My day job?; I'm at Uni doing a film course - so this isn't a career move or anything. Publishing is pretty unlikely, but who knows - perhaps I'll give it a shot when I've done more and my drawing skills have improved. I'm not bothered about making money out of it TBH it's just a bit of fun for now :)
 
Didn't mean to sound luke a crazy man loosing a fix there :lol:
Just thought, you may as well spread the work out so more people can enjoy and comment when needs be. Wasn't suggesting you should give up your day job for it either, pritty sure even the most competant manga artist had a day job for years whilst their works were popular. Cool that ur a Uni tho. Wish I'd gone some times but I took the job path instead. Gotta a house out of it which is VERY good considering how Britains valuations are looking at the moment.

The job path may be smarter anyhow, I can see myself on streets in a few years selling these drawings out of a cardboard box for food. But hey! I'm a pessimist :lol: Just see too many people leaving Uni and struggling to get a job despite qualifications, it's pretty bleak really.
 
Yeah, I hear that too! It sux for a lot of people. Best mate is a fully trained Judge for court! He's working in the ship yard :S
Depends where you end up really, some people like clean slate where as others like experiance. A lot goes down to luck to like.
You should stick at the film studies though coz that would just be a total y awesome career path. I have a few friend who got jobs in ITV and Channel 4 (Editor and Director/writter). With people like that around me, how the hell did I end up being a tax man?? :D
 
I hope I make something of what I'm doing as you say - I still fear I may be dragged back to my old job at the corner shop :eek: I'll stop ranting now anyhow, I'm in danger of turning this into a careers thead.
 
Went visiting friends, so I ended up leaving this page half finished for a while. Anyhow, here it is - end of a scene, took a bloody long time too, though I am finding quicker ways of shading and such now.
 
art as usual looks very good and do I sense some kind of plot developing? you are getting me more and more interested....

Is the above drawing awesome, Y/N?

YES.

Cheers for saying so :D

I have a long term plot in mind, but I don't know if I'll have the time to draw it all in the near future. Still, I'll keep going until I get buried under work again.

Here's a new page. It's somewhat darker than the previous ones (both metaphorically and visually), so be warned :p
 
hehe why the sterotypical perv is hairy and has a belly? (thinking about paranoia agent perv).... anyway, I hope you find the time to draw the whole thing. Also hope you can sell this somewhere, I'd be supporting that. Specially if you kept the dungeon and dragons thing going... :p

Strangely enough, Paranoia Agent was exactly what came to mind when I was drawing that one. Forgive my shameless stereotyping anyhow, here's more.
 
you should try and find a apprentice studio.. like being a pupil of some magaka that has to deliver 20 pages a week... ;) that would teach you to draw faster :D and, yeah! it's all about the thrills... I've re-read from the beggining (didn't remember what was happened earlier) you're really doing great!

Cheers :) , for what it's worth I am getting faster than I was intially. It used to take about a week for me to finish up a page completely - sometimes I can do it in about two days now (still pretty poor, but it's improvement).
