im a writer, been writing novels for years. now, im reigniting my love for comics and manga--the biggest blockage is definitely my drawing skills. im a true 100% beginner noob and it sucks that every time I open a canvas on medibang paint to start drawing, I close it cuz im scared. but thanks, I really needed this motivation :') artists have to start somewhere

[@sunnydargonnel]

I'M IN THE SAME PAGE YOU ARE PAL. Don't give up, ugly drawings might come out but that's a need, you can never be good if you never try in the first place. As a writer I despise my first stories, but I know that now I like how I write because those silly little badly put together stories existed. No one was born knowing how to, so just try it! Also, it doesn't need to look perfect. Araki-sensei made it to the Louvre but his artstyle back in Jojo's Part I was nowhere near his current style c:

[@UltimatePerfection]

There's nothing wrong with collabing with an artist to make your story a reality. There are plenty of artists that are good at drawing but lack writing skills to make a manga or a comic.

[@sunnydargonnel]

@@UltimatePerfection oh I know this but I have 0 money and haven't found someone willing to do it for the love of it :(( So that means I gotta cultivate the skill and do it myself! Which of course is a lesson in overcoming frustration lol

I am working through my first manga one-shot with my best friend after putting it off for far too long... very grateful for these amazing free resource videos, thank you! 🙏

[@AnfacAbdi-tl7dx]

Bruh your doing it with ur best friend good for you I want someone to do it with too

Dont let anything stop you! We live in seperate parts of the country now and collaborate remotely, but want to adapt our strategies to bring on more team members in the future... Who knows where you can be in one or two years if you keep at it... you got this!!! 😊

[@eliznasamson8464]

You guys should stop saying "I can't" and start saying "i will" i will make manga i will storyboard i will make a anime adaptation i will never give up!

[@Drakey97]

Yeah! Our actions depends on our mind, if it works negatively, no wonder you act negatively, same with thinking positively that creates positive actions. (You can still be realistic with this though, lol!)

[@baharheydari431]

Always very helpful✨ thank you

[@kuwa_vt]

Awesome video, as someone who middle age and just learning to draw, because they love the craft. I relate greatly with this video. Keep up the great work, I love your channel!

[@Cute-260]

I looking forward to draw a manga thanks for your motivation and your videos

[@DippedInInk]

Very valuable video. My problem is overthinking......soooo many ideas I have.

[@Drakey97]

Haha, same, I think writing and organizing it, with a little force of discipline could help! FORCE! FORCE! NYAHAHA!

[@DarkTider]

3:45 - As someone who struggles daily with my age, and with the very real thought that it might be too late for me, this hits so close to home. However, the sheer cliff of insecurity also prevents me from truly getting going, so these days its more of a slog, forcing myself to do it, and to just suffer through the mental stress of the insecurity in the same of the story...sigh...its pure suffering, but if I stop fighting, the story will never happen...So, figuratively bleeding and battered, i keep moving forwards, one, step, at, a, time.... of course, it doesnt help that I keep insisting on drawign stuff i don't actually know how to draw, but because its the right thing for the story XD

[@YourFriendNeaphy]

Thats the spirit!😃 Of course I have no idea what struggles you have to deal with, but with this mindset you are definitely on the right path. One step at a time, like you said👍

[@Diddles_Doodles]

Wow thx

My bighest problem is : I can not do outlining nicely 😢

I feel a little called out on that last one, but I do want to keep improving, but when should I start sharing? I'm not that good, but I have ideas, lots of them. Should I just do it anyway?

[@aphlearntodrawmanga]

Glad this resonated with you! Just do it anyway and start sharing as soon as possible. The world deserves your awesomeness! :)

I love your content so much. I want to become mangaka myself and I have manga paper. I am aiming for my dreams and I am taking my own time. I agree with what you are saying.

[@MovoTheGorgon]

Another helpful video. While I’m still going to try and apply to the program in October, I’m not sure I’ll have the money for it. I’d have to take out a loan if I wanted to afford it

[@intergalactic0]

See you in 5 years

[@aphlearntodrawmanga]

See ya! ✌️

[@nkrumahsfnafweebuniverse]

I can’t join that program yet. I’m gonna participate in the newest manga contest that’s for teenagers. Best of all, it’s being ran by Shonen Jump + and Shueisha

[@eliznasamson8464]

I have never storyboard before thats something that I've like never did but I've storyboarded now and its so fun the process was kinda painful on how bad the characters were presented but that didn't stop me i kept drawing and drawing nothing has gotten in my mind no heart breaks just drawing i like character designs i can go above and beyond. I will come outta my comfort zone i will make manga and make my manga a actual anime even though I'm 11 years old.

[@ArjunGhorpade-so3tm]
