Manga Progress

Hello again fellow artists! I'm not sure who will actually read this, but I very much appreciate those who do, if any! c:

As I mentioned in my previous post, my first post, I said I was making a manga called "Manumit Mahia."

And finally, at last, I am not as behind as I was before! TT_TT

It's like, I feel like I am working so hard and I am so stressed but I make no actual progress, but at last I have made great progress! TT_TT

I hope everything turns out great in the end and I get a great chance to win at least one manga contests TT_TT I hope all my research, stress, and work will pay off.

Here are some "teasers"! :P


******************** Work hard everyone and best of luck to all! ***********************

New Manga Coming Soon!

Hello! My name is Penkuza! Well, at least it's my online name :P I've been on Medibang for a long time, but I've been on the down low ;o so I'm 100% sure nobody knows me :P

Anyways, I am very excited to release a new manga in the end of December in order to enter for the two Shounen manga contests currently held >.< I have such high hopes, it kills me everyday just dreaming of it ;-;

Well, my manga will be named "Manumit Mahia" and it is actually very hard to come up with a new Shounen series in which a theme or themes aren't used or at least overly used. Also, I find it challenging to create a character that is unique yet that the Shounen audience would enjoy. Since I am American, I feel it would be hard for me to get my manga to appeal to Japanese audiences.

However, I do believe I have some kind of grasp onto it ;-;

Anyways, I should leave a sample drawing of the main character. :v I am proud to say I can draw good, but I believe there are always room for improvements. I worry more about backgrounds and toning ;-; Also, I hope my style doesn't seem familiar :v and as you can see, I suffer from not being able to draw hands >.<

The anticipation, excitement and high hopes kill me every single day. I really do hope to win or at least get noticed by my absolute favorite mangaka, Mr. Masashi Kishimoto and Mr.Hiro Mashima.

I did create a manga before, and published it once to medibang for one of the first Shounen Jump contests and I thought it was the greatest thing ever. However, I took it down once the contest was over and looking back at it again, I want to burn the thing! It was terrible and doesn't reflect my full capabilities, so this time I am working extra hard!

Anyways, I think that's all I have to say for now. If you read this, thank you so much for listening! I hope you have hopes for me too! But best of luck to all of you!

Also, I am here if anyone would like critique, or if you want to critique my work when it comes. I absolutely love being critiqued on my work, I love all honesty that would help me improve and better my work. And I'm also here if you need support and/or a friend :P

Peace! ^-^
