Thanks for your help, Monitor! I'm learning how so much about how I want to handle my mangas! I'm quite grateful for your teaching!

Very short but EXTREMELY INFORMATIVE! I was always having a trouble with understanding what these specific effects literally represent or how they're called, this video is super helpful in it! I need to dedicate some time and play a bit with these options bc I have CSP! Thanks a lot! ❤

Great video man! Thanks for this! I have a question tho, did you study art college/take vocational courses or are you self taught?

@MonitorComics

3 жыл бұрын

Sorry for the late reply! Thank you for the comment! As much as I want to say I am self-taught, I really can't. I've been drawing ever since I was a kid and my parents got me into a mentally gifted (mg program) curriculum for art in elementary school. So I learned a lot of the basics really early on and had art teachers to walk me through the fundamentals. In middle school, I mostly just taught myself from youtube videos and things like that, but I still took middle school art classes here and there because I wanted to learn more. In High school, I got accepted into a performing arts academy where I studied Fine Art, Photography, and Graphic Design. That definitely helped me improve the most when it comes to art theory. I'm currently in university right now pursuing a dual degree in Fine Arts and Graphic Design. As fancy as that all sounds, I don't believe art school or classes are necessary for anyone. I feel like most of what I've learned, especially when it comes to comics and my anime style, were things I figured out on my own. Art classes are only good for teaching theory and fundamentals (anatomy, lighting, perspective, scale, composition, color selection, etc.) Most of these skills can be learned for free on youtube. I think art school and classes can be good because you have teachers who can give you good feedback and help you improve quicker. Learning with others is also a good motivator to force yourself to put the hours into practice. While I don't recommend art school or classes if you don't have the opportunity, it's definitely been helpful for me at least. Sorry for the long response lol, hope that helped. I've seen so many amazing artists younger than me who are self-taught, so it's definitely possible to do it without formal art education.

@@MonitorComics @Monitor Comics to be honest, that gives me a surge of motivation! It's great to hear what learning art is like from another perspective. Unlike you, i really don't have a lot of opportunities to study in art school since I'm only living in a small town. I kinda regret not learning art early on. When i was 8, I already understood perspective but I didn't realize it until i was this old🤣. I really hope it isn't too late for me. Anyways, I'll keep on tuning in to your channel because this is such a gold mine for all of us developing artists out here especially those who don't have a mentor. Thanks for this! And good luck to your future projects!

This was helpfully🤍✨

Gloom lines and Rising lines... Nobody talks about anything like that with Western comics. I've seen it done in manga, but I just thought it was some abstract effect to keep from having to draw a background similar to that thing the Image guys used to do (You know, big, abstract-shaped blobs of black with checkerboard crosshatch coming out)--- I didn't realize it served a storytelling purpose as well. I'll be incorporating that during dramatic story moments now. Exactly the sort of thing I'm here for!

@MonitorComics

Жыл бұрын

That's awesome to hear! Both the gloom lines and rising line effects fall into the broader, "Speed Line" category. There are many different types of speed lines that are used to convey different things. For example diagonal speedlines are often used in scenes of fast movement, like characters running or flying. Like the Image comic effects you mentioned, there are some common "abstract effects" manga artists use when they don't feel like drawing backgrounds. Often times manga artists will just fill the entire background black for dramatic moments or leave it completely white for upbeat or casual scenes There are also many other hatching and stippling effects used to allude to things like embarrassment, anxiety, etc. Most of these effects can also be done with screen tone
