Mini Manga Competition
« on: April 21, 2015, 01:34:17 AM »
Calling everybody!
I thought it would be interesting to see a large group of people make a short story manga, something like 2+ pages. You don't have to be good either! This is definitely noob friendly. I myself can't draw at all. The purpose of this competition is to see everyone's creativity and art styles. This is completely for fun, so there is no prize money, sorry ;)

This competition will give me a reason to put some hard work into a project, because I've been procrastinating a lot and doing nothing. Competition always brings out the best in people, so let's see your best work!
Rules: 2+ pages,  no nudity, no picking on other user's work, if there is gore like blood or broken bones, you might want to put a spoiler and link to another site. I know there are young members. Have fun, the goal is by next Tuesday, or Wednesday. Just do your best, it can be about anything.

Users entering:
1) Mhx Air
2) legomaestro (and Killer B)
3) Nekonomicon (and partner)
4)
5)
6)
7)

Wanna help me draw stuff? My drawings are fine, but they're just not animanga styled. If you'd like to, just shoot me a PM anytime, I'd love to see your art.

That's some good idea you got there...too bad I am too busy to participate  :(

But I look forward to see what you're gonna do...

PS: A mod can correct me if I am wrong but I think the appropriate board for this is "Manga artists battle ground" in the "Collaboration(art exchange)" section  ;D

Oh hey, nice. I didn't even know there were subsubforums. Well it's up to them to move it, but I don't think anyone would find it there, unless they're a more experienced member.
It sucks you can't join, I know you mostly only draw on weekends, and you do projects. I'm going to attempt to hand sketch my first preview of a story. If I have time, I'll go over it in GIMP.

Wow I'm lazy as they come but count me in! The manga can start anywhere right? Like it can be a preview of it mid-story?

Well everyone knows how to find this board, and it's better that it's in its right place so i had to move it.

Yes, it can start at book 3, chapter 4 if you wish. You can draw any scene, something easy or something interesting or exciting. It can be a sketch or computer made, as long as it's 2 or more pages and you just started it. I'm going to draw a scene from a separate timeline. My whole series bounces through flashbacks and flash forwards.

Always fun to work with a disconnected timeline. You've seen Baccano I'm sure.

I'll try to recruit another person to join in the fun

Um, yeah, sure I guess. It's 7 days to draw 2 pages. That's like 8 pictures. I guess if you have a partner, list their name so I can update the board again :)

I thought I would post a small preview of my sketches and story idea so far. If you don't want to see it until the end, I'll put it in a spoiler ;)
Anyone else can share theirs so far, unless they would rather save it til the end.

Spoiler
Here's a couple sketches of my base story.
:Mhx and Crystal stop at a park, Mhx jumps onto a bench to rest. Crystal decides to poke a squirrel.
"Crystal, what are you doing?"
"I found a squirrelio."
"Crystal, leave the squirrel alone."
"It's a squirrelio."
"The squirrel is going to bite you."
"It's a squirrelio."
*poke poke*
*Squirrel bites Crystal*
~Begin huge battle of flying squirrels vs Crystal~

A squirrel battle. Hilarious.

I think I might as well work on a throw away 8 page script I tried to have someone draw here. Hopefully it'll work out.

Slightly improving each day, but I just can't get it perfect.
How are the rest of you doing?

Hey Nomena, how's this look compared to when I joined the other week?

I'd say it looks much better indeed, especially the face, good work :thumbsup:

Though you need more work on the body and the pose, the size of his arm muscles don't fit his torso at all, you need to give him more muscles on the torso and the chest.

I'll give you this practice website for the pose

How are you both doing? Do you need the time extended? I'm looking at just being able to pull an all-nighter Tuesday night and having an okay looking computer made mini story. I had a few drinks and passed out at the computer, battery died and lost my work. Not a big deal, but definitely set me back.

Yeah sorry about dropping off. I'll try to have something Tuesday. By the way add Killer B to the list I've decided to work with him on making something.

Not a big problem, I was hoping for a full roster. It will just be nice if anyone made anything by Wednesday.
