Beginner Guide to Making a WEBTOON - My Process!

[@duckwafer1828]

Hey doods! Thanks for the feedback! Didn’t expect this to be so helpful to people. I haven’t really checked this video in months so I came back and was surprised by the number of views lol. Let me know if there’s other drawing things you’d like videos on and I may make some! I never intended to be a youtuber or anything, but if these videos are wanted, I may continue with youtube. Also, as far as the comic in this video goes, I discontinued it. I didn’t have the time since I am in college at the same time, and have had some pains in my hands from overworking. But you can still see my art on my instagram @duckwafer !!

[@troyclayton290]

HI can you only upload 1 panel per page or can you do multiple panels on a single page also is it possible to upload double page spreads?

[@-V3LLO-]

Now I'm gonna start making a series about my "magnificent" dreams... I mean, they are great idea's At least, I think- Edit: but I usually go too over board with stories because I want all of these little details in...

[@koo-core7274]

try simplifying your characters into shapes before you draw them so you can get a hang of consistency and their shapely proportions. keep redrawing their features until you find something you can confidently copy over and over again.

[@Ryannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn]

People I just wanted to give everyone a tip. When you start taking a series very serious I highly recommend posting 3-10 chapters to start off. This will take time but if you struggle to grab attention from the first chapter no one will go back to it a month or week later. So when you are launching your first series post more than 1 chapter so people get the general idea of the story. If you don’t do this just make the first chapter very detailed and eye grabbing. But just enjoy making it and take your time.

[@syundown6005]

Another reason this tip is great is that if the reader reads 3 or more chapters of your comic in a row, they get prompted by Webtoons asking if they want to subscribe to the series, and it makes it a lot more likely for them to do so.

[@blackkloudz8460]

Yeah. Apparently this is called retention and its usually in buisnesses, but it means that no matter how big your company is, if your customers dont come back, youre done.

[@MrQuantitySquare]

Yeah, just like with youtube channels. You're gonna want to upload like 3-5 videos at first or something.

4:30 it is totally valid to draw on paper then color it in digitally. The author of Spirit Fingers and Our Beloved Summer also do the same thing! The difference is they would draw on hard pressed paper so when they scan the line art, the paper texture would show up. That's why their webtoons has an organic feel to it!

Hey ! I don't if people will see this but if some of you are wondering what's the difference between JPEG and PNG : - JPEG is the most "common" one and your files will be really light but you tend to lose quality on your photo/art -PNG has a better quality but is waaaaay heavier ! Also, if I remember correctly my college classes, it's more accurate for internet use ^^ (and it allows you to put a transparent background which is great when you draw a lot of stickers like me and that you wanna see how the shape turns out :3)

[@syundown6005]

@@marianmeciar3385 When artists accept the offer to have their comic become an original series, they get offered other artists and sometimes get introduced to other creators (ex. Kenny for bg music) to accommodate whatever they need. Most of the time the artists that become part of the creator's "team" are colorists, storyboard artists, or character design experts. They help relieve some of the load off the creator and help improve the comic. Only downside is that at times they follow their own agenda, as the marketing team is catered towards a certain type of trope or style when it comes to your comic that would appeal more to a larger audience. You lose a bit of autonomy when that happens.

[@ilikepointlessinternetargument]

@@i_dont_know_who_i_am_93 they aren’t necessary but are extremely useful. 1. If you are unsure about how something would look with the whole thing you could use a separate layer. And if you didn’t like it just delete it 2. Blending modes can really cool to play around with. ones I use the most: Add- make whatever color under lighter with your selected color Multiply- make whatever color under darker with your selected color Overlay- adds a tent to colors underneath with your selected colors ^those are just the bare minimum in any of my art.^ 3. If you’re unsure about how to shade a specific drawing you can use the layers to test stuff out. Meaning you can shade the same drawing in as many ways as possible and just find the one you like most. Idk. There is a simple explanation I guess lol

Cool. Thank you for explaining. I'm just starting drawing with technology, and it looks fun. I'm actually gonna do it for fun. My next step is creating the plot and learning writing parts, which is another world to explore. Thank you again!

I think for 800*1280 pixeled panels you should use krita for dividing rather than cropping in medibang.. In krita you can select the no. Of panels to be divided into and software divides it equaly.... I hope it helps🌷🌷

[@aurora_xx6736]

Nice tip, how would you do that?

[@Mel-jr5cz]

I don't want to, have never wanted to, never plan to, and don't even read webtoons, I just wanted to learn something and did! I really appreciate how informative you are!

YOU ARE THE BEST! I HAVE NO WAY OF DRAWING ON COMPUTER, AND I SUCK AT DRAWING WITH A MOUSE, SO NOW I CAN JUST TAKE THE PICTURES AND RE-DRAW THEM ON COMPUTER! *GENIUS!!!* MWA MWA

What text settings would you recommend for the procreate app, because I want to make one but I want to make sure the text is consistent// also what should we use to crop the pages when we can only upload on iPad ;-;

[@zyabaker3852]

There’s his website loads of webtoon creators use, just search for ‘croppy for webtoon’ and the first link is probably it. All you have to do is upload ur file, select either Webtoon format or Tapas format and it’ll do the cropping for u. Just save it to ur Photos and upload the photos as files each. Hope this helps.

Me and classmate (and her bestfriend) are planning to make 1 on christmas cuz we have modules, and about the height part of the comic, we only think of 6x of 1280 :)

[@randomartist-8372]

So if I use the canvas of 800 x 3840, that’s like three pages, so when I go to crop it in MediBang i have to crop it three times?

[@leximarket]

in my opinion what helps me is drawing scenes that don't have that much seriousness or just the general panels that aren't as important more simple while the scenes that have depth and special moments more detail because i want people who are reading my comic to remember the scenes that have more detail other than just general scenes that have a lot of detail.

i'm neither good nor bad at drawing, my skill is still lacking but at the same time i can draw some decent things already, I'm so unsure whether i should just go and start pre-production for my first webtoon or hold it until i become more skillful...

[@ame5671]

I suggest that you should just start a one already but something short and slice of life? maybe.. With that you can always stop what you are doing and will have an idea what to do... after that you can start doing the story that you want to with the experinece that you have gained... Idk how to give an advice but this is what i will do so just wanted to say it... Hope it helps :)

Can you also do this in ibis paint? Because I don’t use the app you use could u make a tutorial on how do it on ibisPaint? Keep the good tutorials!! ❤️❤️

So don't some webtoon artist make their webtoon beforehand when publishing .... For example Gio started making a webtoon but before starting he made 15-20 chapters (not all at once though, like for the first month or two). When he's ready he doesn't have to worry about the next chapter because he made them way before, so now he can slowly add in chapters he already created while adding on new ones, but thats extremelystart to me lol... sorry that was long LOL .... but yall get it right? Yh? No? Okay🚶🏽‍♀️

[@girlinthemirror-webtoon7796]

I also think it is best to create at least five chapters beforehand

[@davidensinger4175]

weekly updates are tough af, from my experience doing long chapter will consume lot of time, so it's like second not yet paid job. Also month updates seem to be too long

hi lmao I’m probably not the person u expected to answer but I use the iPad Pro 2020 11 inch. U could go with whatever ipad fits ur needs but I’d recommend one that’s compatible with the Apple Pencil. As for CSP, yes there is an app you could download on the iPad.

I have an iPad mini (5th gen) HOWEVER I recommend getting something bigger. I got this one because I was like “oh its cheaper and also more portable!!” But bruh,,, its too small for me sometimes. I wish I had a bigger canvas. Some people may like this size but not me.

[@lauraberner1575]
