How to make Comics/Webcomics from script to publish! | My comic creation process

[@gloamony]

Perfect timing! I just agreed to make a comic about me and my friends, because over the years we developt a weird roleplay story and I am the artist of our group.

[@Zaccura]

That sounds like so much fun! Best of luck to you and your friends with the project :D

[@jayaprasanthsingh1775]

I just wanted to know how u draw characters very easily

[@theutopitarian]

So how's the commic going?

[@EdnayAmbar]

Wow!, i'm planning with a club of reading, make a comic of the members and our stupid jokes :b, that you say should be funny :D

[@asiarobinson9167]

@@EdnayAmbar CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME IF I CAN DO THIS ON MY IPAD PRO OR NOT!!!!!????? 🤬🤬🤬😡 I’m starting to get aggravated and frustrated ‘cause all I want is to do my comic on Tapas

[@MrOlaf1972]

That was probably the easiest to follow tutorial I've seen on how the whole process works. It's something I can maybe show my kids and they'd be able to get it! A lot of other artists make it seem like a huge disadvantage doing it non-digitally, but the way you lay it out here feels a whole lot less stressful than dealing with all that computery nonsense. It's really motivating for us old-school dead-tree format artists!

[@Zaccura]

"dead-tree format artists"🤣🤣 I'm so glad you enjoyed the tutorial, thank you and good luck!!

[@asiarobinson9167]

@@Zaccura Can I do all of that on my IPad Pro?

[@arieswildchild]

Girl you bring me the hope I can do comics not in digital way! I am traditional artist and have a lot of stories. I cane with the idea I could combine those. Every single site told me I need photoshop or stuff, which I'm zero with. Many thanx!

[@bricksallover6569]

Ngl have been getting in my head because I have a dream of illustrating a comic but I’m sh*t at digital 💀♥️thanks for makin this vid coz legit it’s rly helpful and put my mind at ease xx sending loooove

[@david_the_noob_0422]

yooo same im also shit at digital

[@hellboydestena1291]

I LOVE this video. No speedraw, serious tips, complete process to make a comic’s page, voice calm (infact i understand the words). Pity dont have italian subtitles.

[@lizsun261]

i’ve been on and off building my big fantasy world for about 4 years now… since i started my style and approach have both changed A LOT, but i’m so happy to be able to start using my better materials to share my lil thought 😭

[@stephenf746]

Wow. This is a great video. I'm really thinking about creating my own webtoon but a lot of channels seem to overcomplicate it. I loved how you broke it down so a novice like me could easily follow. Very much appreciated, and good luck in your own endeavors!

[@Zaccura]

So glad it was helpful! And thank you, good luck!

[@mykar.418]

Hey! If u have a comic published drop a link, I wanna see it if it’s public! 🎉❤

[@mirage_404]

I love your style, and that you did almost all the work by hand instead of digitally. And I would've never thought to add the word bubbles digitally instead of making room for it while drawing (simple, but saves time and stress). Practical step by step, and it was fun to watch. Thanks for showing it from beginning to end!

[@babybojanglesjr]

Helpful tip: if you're uploading a comic in the traditional comic layout, you could crop each panel as individual images for web comic uses. Oh and another thing: you could also rearrange the paneling onto one long canvas.

[@BradDraws]

I really admire your art style! :D Great Work! :)

[@Zaccura]

Thank you so much!

[@neitfoxxthrowclain6186]

l though making comics was hard but after seeing you do it l dont thinks its hard.

[@shanewilson7994]

Thank you. I'm just starting on the basics for a comic series I want to start, and this has helped me a lot.

[@ivanperić-d4m]

I know I am probably late but I've just read you'r comic and it's really good. I like the art style and story is solid. Because of you i found Tapas and I can finally publish my own manga. It's called Kraken and it will be published next month. I want you all best in life :)

[@CitruKori]

I especially agree with your point on clarity. I recently made a piece where a character was in a really dynamic pose that involved the character’s leg covering up most of the torso. I showed it to a friend and he genuinely took 30 seconds looking at it trying to decipher what is actually happening. Until then, I thought dynamic poses were the coolest thing, and they still are, but now I know the limits of how far I can go. Great video!

[@slippie5585]

this video was really helpful and gave some great tips! i'm working on my own webcomic right now so it's nice to know. :)

[@MrBlorp-sf9ye]

Seeing how amazing your comics look made my tension fizzle out a bit because I now realize that I can be loose about my own comics too. No obsessing over precise panel spacing and measurements and keeping everything *too* orderly and overcalculated Mank vou thery yuch

[@StLouis83]

Thanks so much... I'm on the process of the script, and playing everything that I could in my head and onto the script. Great idea of drawing on paper, scan and then post it as a web comic. I'll be checking out the comic and hopefully getting my first ever book comic.

[@MsAnimeFreak777]

I stumble on this video cuz I wanna start a comic soon and not only its super helpful but it's also really relaxing, your voice and how you do your comics. ^^

[@tommymeyer]

This is, by far, the most inspirational video I've encountered. Love that you decided to keep the style in which the comic was invented, and that you are showing us how to get to a beautiful result through manageable steps. Thank you so much.

[@Zaccura]

I'm so glad to hear it was helpful!! Thanks so much for the kind words!💕😊

[@drdeepalimk6928]

Very nice. Very simple. Thank you very much. I have drawn and published one book in e book format and same in hard copy. I didn’t know what I was doing. But after watching your video I can put a name to the steps I took. I asked around, even in computer center/ schools, but no one could guide me. At last amazon published my first book. Thank God. And I am grateful to Amazon for it - before this I was published only once -sponsored. The thing is I can write scripts , draw comics at will. But when comes to publishing I get stuck. I hope to learn about this from you / soon. Today I learned quite a few things. Thanks a lot again.

[@supertigress9124]

I really like your art style. This is a great tutorial for beginner comic makers like myself among others who still struggle with how to go about making comics.

[@gbpatriot2]

Excellent tutorial that gave me a shed load of ideas and left my brain is fizzing with inspiration. I learned so much from you, thank you. You have just changed the way I intend to present all my comic books and especially the graphic family history I am currently planning. Ray Cheshire England

[@Zaccura]

So glad it was helpful and inspiring! Best of luck with your projects.

[@PeterPalmiotti]

I always love knowing/ finding out how others create comics. ....I think to myself that by osmoses I'll soak some important information in one day.

[@PeterPalmiotti]

New here, SUB'd! 👍👊😍

[@iamhumanbeing3]

i am just soon to be publishing my novel!! and I wantted to have an idea about how to basically illustrate and scan things whenever i scan the art goes dim your videopopped up in my search list!! and glad to found you!!!!!! lovee!!

[@SARDARru]

I want to give 100 thumbs up for tis video. i one hundred percent do not draw my own comic right now cause it's a lot of work, but i so enjoy watching this video! Thanks!

[@StetStudio]

This is great! Thanks for sharing. I've been learning a bit more about comic-making lately because I have an idea knocking around in my brain. The saving 1/3 of your page method looks tedious, but it's about the same way I save my comics (panel by panel) for Instagram.

[@Zaccura]

Ooo best of luck with the comic when it happens! And haha guess we just gotta do what we gotta do until there's a better tool made XD

[@kaivrock]

It’s great to see somebody else who just inks right over the pencil and then erases the pencil. I always felt guilty doing that. The Tombow brush pens are really great and they also have a hard tip on the other end.

[@Zaccura]

Ahh why did you feel guilty?? I think the only other way is to use a lightbox, which is so much more complicated, right over the pencil is efficient imo😎✌

[@kaivrock]

Yeah. The lightbox would have been one more long step and you lose what you had that was good in the pencil @@Zaccura

[@fireballstudiose]

This was very helpful! This will help me for whenever I decide to make the final draft and publish my comic, tho I’m not sure when that’ll happen

[@thesilverbullet5061]

your art style has so much charm

[@Zaccura]

Aw thanks! :)

[@arisbarcelo2668]

This is one of the most impressive video to all that I've watched.

[@ronhaim770]

Great video! I watched a bunch of professional tutorials that explained nothing at all and this one probably was the most helpful

[@Zaccura]

So glad it was helpful!

[@mf--]

I prefer the more pagelike format. The scrolling and scrolling through the gap is exhausting. Looks cool and inspiring.

[@artwithjimmy]

Just to give you a heads up you can export out as web comic and divide vertically. you don't need to split the page up manually.

[@liachngo]

The “gasp” lol! Nice video - I like how you traditionally draw your comics.

[@melsgalleria]

Omg, I love those tombow pens so much. They are my favorite inking pens by far, the blue one in particular, and I have one in every art bag or location that I "might" need one lol.

[@Zaccura]

Mine too! It's the only thing I've found that compares to the smoothness and bounciness of a traditional dip pen, except without the mess!

[@melsgalleria]

@@Zaccura Exactly, it has the perfect feel. I fell in love with it instantly. Especially when it comes to not making a mess.

[@a_gnuest]

That's a great video!! I'm looking into the idea of making a webcomic myself and wanted to see other people's work & advice first and I think yours is really helpful to me!

[@vampiregaminghd8293]

I was confused on how to physically make a comic and this definitely helped thank you 🙏👍

[@LocksleyDoesLife]

okay first off, you're awesome, i love you. you remind me of me. "do as i say, not as i do" i died. thank you for this because ive been hemming and hawing over digi vs trad, and i want to do traditional like you! and i will definitely look up your comic so i can read it. i dont have fancy pens or ink like you do but ill be looking for some, as well as watvhing all of your other vids. im in the middle of your koi watercolor now and i love it. i also dabble in watercolor, ha, dabble. yes indeed. anyway.... love it, love you, cant wait to ingest more of your knowledge for my own evil purposes. i mean, learn from you.

[@Zaccura]

Aw so glad you enjoyed the content and found it useful! Thanks so much for the support!

[@piccolofan24]

Great video! Please consider making a video on formatting for print. It’s pretty confusing. 😅

[@mi00kyarts10]

Awww, this is so awesome I really love your video and the style of your comics (didn't read them yet) And it inspired me to try ink... I had some refill ink for some not anymore existing liners, that I used, because after watching this I HAD TO do something with Ink. It was so much fun, thanks for the inspiration. And maaaybe... well... maybe I will try a comic with this too. Great work with the comics and the videos!!

[@Zaccura]

Haha yesss get that ink OUT! ;D So glad you enjoyed the video, and Oooo good luck if you do decide to make an inked comic!

Okay. I don't know why I never thought of that, but your way of making speech bubbles is more efficient than me just drawing a circle and filling it in with the paint bucket tool. Never in my life had I ever seen myself as stupid as a pile of thumb tacks until now. I even have the brush for it. I am a fool. yes.

If you could take the whole page of the comic on illustrator, you could simply draw three art-boards on each page and it’ll automatically make the cropped versions ready to be exported in a single button! All your pages, and all your jpegs

I am not a visual artist, I'm a writer, so sorry if my instincts were super close-minded. But when I first saw you shading with watered down ink, I thought "man, that seems like way too much effort just for shading" Then I saw the result, and it looked so good that it instantly changed my mind.

[@peet-janissen5838]
