Heeeey

Still steadily inking every day! Medibangs in a bit of a slog but with all these contests I'm excited to see people's work! I'm sure there will be some amazing submissions! Keep working hard, everyone!!!
Here's some sketches I did on breaks, I'm almost halfway done inking but I wanted to post something! I dont know, I'd expect most people have stopped waiting for my manga by now, since it's been months. I too thought id be done by now... in fact the original deadline was march... but im a beginner so it really doesn't impact my success... I'm just glad to still be working hard on it! I know I'm slow. Thank you so much for supporting me! Have a good night and keep drawing!

New one-shot in the works

It's been a while.

And I'm working on a new one-shot at the moment.
The theme this time is heroism and what that really means.
Trying to get in with some publishers, so I'm planning to submit this to Saturday-AM's 'Summer of Manga' competition (if I can get it done on time), but it'd be good to enter it into the MCPO contest as well.

Saturday-AM have an absolutely crippling 22-page limit; combining that with my baffling inability to write shorter scripts and the fact that I'm limiting the number of panels per page that I draw to stop them getting as cluttered as they used to means that there's quite a lot that I'm unhappy about with the storyboard and the script.

But I'm using this to practice drawing new things in new settings, and I've especially been working on page composition and the flow of the pages as a whole, rather than as a sequence of disconnected panels.

I'd really love some feedback when it's (eventually) done, but in the meantime, here are some character designs for the one-shot!

Update

One more page to sketch then on to inks! There are so many people who have been patient waiting for this oneshot as i got slower and slower, but i hope its worth it because i have been painstaking in my effort to improve and make every page better than the last. I love this manga so much! All of my love, attention, and patience has gone to developing the art and making constant revisions but i have loved it every step of the way, even tho i got frustrated to tears many times. I took so long and sometimes a couple days went between pages. Some panels have taken me five hours to do. 72 pages and every panel has my emotion in it. I truly love this world and its characters more than any other ive done. Im so excited to share it with you all!!

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.)
