Ch 8 of my manga is out! Please read!

Hey all, my manga is heating up to its 3rd act. Read it here!
https://medibang.com/book/u11809110438009350002179560

I'm going to focus on a one shot for up to 21 days, more than likely it'll just be 14 days, meaning I won't be updating my manga for almost 4 weeks at most (yikes!) But at least I'm not taking a break from drawing, I definitely don't want to lose any practice.

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy. Here are some of my favorite panels (these panels are basically a short story haha)

Time For A Change of Pace

I've decided, after much deliberation, that I'm going to take a break indefinitely from Volume Zero. It's not that it was going nowhere- on the contrary, I believe I could sustain a series with it and also believe I was on the right track in making it popular. My family said my recent storyboards were the best I've ever done, and I may draw them. Eventually.
But I started my first oneshot two years ago, and of all the sketches and paintings and storyboards I've done, less than a fifth of that has made it onto this website- and almost none of the ones I was most proud of. I thought, as opposed to drawing what came naturally to me, which is slice of life and emotional manga, Volume Zero would be popular. So I focused on that. But I haven't really enjoyed it for a long time.
I don't expect this to break any hearts or anything but I figured I'd explain why the series isn't continuing and I'm posting new stuff. I have four oneshots that I've storyboarded in the year since I've come up with Volume Zero, plus others that I didn't like as much or ideas that I discarded, and several other series ideas. Right now I'm going to draw some of those oneshots and increase my skill, and then hopefully start a series about a famous street of eclectic artisan shops in a city's shopping district, where I can focus on characters and drawing cool stuff and emotions, which is what I love. I'm excited for the new chapter in my artistic life, and I'm happy to put Volume Zero to rest for now, as since my first oneshot about a boy following his brother's dreams to the city, I have done nothing else.
Thank you all for your continued support of my work! I can't wait to see what you create, and I'm excited to join you in drawing something I can really pour my heart into!
Meet the two main characters of that manga, Isabelle and Shinji! (If anyone REAAAAALLY paid attention in my last oneshot, you'd notice "Star Boutique" in the background. Shinji was an Emanator's brother and he designed almost everything you saw Emanators wear, including Allion's suit. He was set up to be a big part of Volume Zero, but he's since been reassigned.)

I now have a bear in my manga. Read it!

There a walking, talking, fighting, "Lordly" bear in my manga. Read what he is up to here! https://medibang.com/book/j51808282038581310002179560/view/

Due to various personal/production/technical issues I couldn't draw for over a week. It was horrible. I was so bored. I even went out with friends. On multiple occasions! It was super counter productive (but fun haha). Anyways, my story is starting to flesh out. That's cool. There's a lot of dialogue and exposition but it's still an easy read. I already know when the next fight will happen, can't wait for that.

Also a big focus of this chapter was realizing perspective with rooms and quality backgrounds. I borrowed heavily from Katsuhiro Otomo, the mangaka behind Akira. I'm no where remotely close to his skill, but I made fair progress. Anyways, hope you read and enjoy it! I'll try to have next chapter in 7-8 days.


Here are my favorite pages :)

Some PEOPLE did not believe...

So yeah, there are ‘Persons’ (im not gonna name cuz it hurts so bad) here that claims my illustrations are questionably fake and are copy-pasted from google, and that I just added my insignia on it. It really strikes me that they have the audacity to actually tell me those things. ‘They’, of course, wouldnt believe me, then consecutively unfriended/unfollowed... And here i am posting some stuffs i managed to save to show ‘Them’ that it is not modified copy-paste.
I just drew bcuz i was inspired, y’know...

Life is Funny, Plans change

You can catch up on my manga story here: https://medibang.com/book/pa1808041507081760002179560

I was supposed to be doing a one shot this week but rewrites have pushed it back, so I'm continuing production of my manga "Smoking Gun" instead. I actually think I prefer this because I was really excited to draw this dramatic chapter. Also I finally get to introduce a very important character to the story!! I posted a color version before but here's a lineart of him.

I always liked anthro, non-human characters. It makes design that much easier and I don't have to worry about someone looking too similar to another character. I think I'll potentially have this manga chapter out just a bit earlier too! Super happy!

I've published my new manga for contest

Well, what is the good sentence for celebrating something? Oh right... WABBA LABBA DUB DUB, BABY!!!

Finally I finished my one-shot for the contest. But to be honest, I'm not really proud at it, I don't know if that's worth it or not. For the story itself, I really was changing almost everything, and the art... To be honest, I can make better if there is more time (Well, seriously, I really am take my time to develop my characters, so I do research and didn't think about time, and yesterday I made 5 pages in a day and I didn't sleep in 25 hours, more or less).

So, for the characters, I don't know you guys will like the new Quen I made, but that is an actual Quen. I mean, when I get published, I really want to made Quen that way, but for the one-shot, I don't know if this will be worth it or not. Because, I am really sure, if you read my manga just a half, or not finish to read it, you just end up hating Quen because he's a d*ck, to be honest. But, there is something unique about him (Atleast that's what I think). Well, I don't want to spoil too much, so please, whoever you are, if you read this, just read my manga, okay? And leave the critique for me, I will listen what you're saying, even maybe sometimes I will get mad, but that's just... You know, human behavior?
