/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I love the art in this manga

The movement in this is fucking great

>>3878158
These are all separate pages just to be clear

Always loved this sequence

>>3878171

>>3878173

>>3878178
the type setting is great

>>3878181

btw if anyone has any good looking french or euro comics please post, most of what I have is manga or american

Look at this

Almost every page from Charley's War.

>>3878219
Then look at the original, I always thought Hellboy had good colors till I saw this
I own the issue of this and it prints WAY darker (the saturation is blown up in the pic above), I never even realized there was a statue there I saw the original

>>3878227
>Charley's War.
That's really fucking good, there's so many people in those panels

>>3878249
I think the pages on this book are wider than the usual (maybe my eyes just playing tricks)
the perspective is great

>>3878244
Esspesially so when you consider that it was one man doing this art and he had to get four to five full pages like this done a week in time for printing.

>>3878148
what the is the best format to make a web comic on instagram

Should I do a 2x2 square on 1 image, or should I do a sequence that you have to swipe through?

any other tips?

I don't read webcomics, but I wanted to give it a try

>>3878201
Artist? The shapes and lines are great.

>>3878294
Kiyoshirou Inoue, probably the best hentai artist ever.
He only ever made 1 hentai tankoubon, if you're looking for it make sure to look for the new scans since he made some adjustments here and there over the old ones

>>3878151
Looks very comfy anon.

I only have manga pages myself, would be nice to see some comics too.

Amazing work By Ishida

These french comics always seem to have this unique look about them

Guess/ic/ doesn't like comics

Is there any "rulebook" or guidance to panelling, other than just studying other artists

>>3878938
I unfortunately can't answer that question, but I'm really interested to know the context behind that page.

These colors look great

>>3878945
no idea, I'm just going through my inspo folder and posting cool pages, it uses tones really well

get to work

I hope you guys have stuff because I think I'm running out

Love the big fat sound effects

Patlabor is severly underrated in terms of art

>>3878848
>"unique look"
You mean ASS and TITS

>>3878938
Not really.
Making Comics by McCloud has some "rules", but they're really basic, like these:
Avoid tangents.
>https://emptyeasel.com/2008/11/18/avoiding-tangents-9-visual-blunders-every-artist-should-watch-out-for/
Stick to one action for panel.
Follow the 180 degree rule.

The point is to make the reading as easy as possible and to avoid confusion. As long as you do it, you can do anything you want.

Then American Comics, Bande dessinèe and Manga have each their own "traditional" paneling, but the best way to learn it, it's to read comics.

Bande Dessinèe for example are slightly bigger than comics, so traditionally they have more panels for page and there is a lot of space for backgrounds.

>>3878300
fuck you, Fapped to this till my arm cramped.

>>3878148
>>3878150
>>3878151
Great taste anon.
Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou has some of the best environmental drawings I've ever seen. So atmospheric and meditative. Pure nostalgia.

>>3879211
Itoh Sei - The Beast Laments
Tiger lady shows up way further, translations are only up to Vol.2 but there's high quality raws
Also check out Monster Collection, more of his art fully scanlated

Kengan Asura has great art and the typesetting by tge translation team is really well done

>>3878171
plz tell me what manga this is

>>3879331
oh... it's a hentai...

oh no

>>3878300
whered u get this uncensored???

>>3879331

I'd appreciate if anyone has body horror stuff

>>3878300
SOURCE PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

>>3879989
can you even read?

Cucumber quest

>>3879996
HIGH QUALITY SOURCE PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
I had a feeling someone would say that. I want the source where the original poster got it from. All these shit hentai sites host low quality versions.

>>3878967
source where can i read this?

>>3878989
i love noa she is such a perfect tomboy i wish she was my girlfriend

>>3878300
anonnn, where did you get that high qual image?

Does /ic/ just not draw comics?

>>3880453
>>3880677
Stop being an obnoxious cunt, I'm not going to fucking spoonfeed you just look for a site that has Fakku books you dumb shit
>>3880612
This, >>3879283

>>3880704
I do, I lurk these threads for some ideas

Always makes me realize how much I can still improve

More euro

I think this might be Frazetta

>>3880704
/ic/ don't draw

>>3880719
It's by Jeffery Catherine Jones if I remember correctly. Frazetta was a fan of hers.

>>3880704
i was hoping for the op of the image to show up and give the DRM free hentai, not for some superman fag to show up

>>3880750
Imagine being this much of a nigger you have to beg as soon as a lewd comic comes up

>>3880710
getting you covered, here's some Didier Poli

>>3880760
imagine having enough time to waste life energy on continuing this...

>>3880766

Florent Madoux

>>3880780

Oldie not-Disney from Giorgio Cavazzano

>>3880787

"Love" second volume, drawings by Federico Bertolucci

>>3880793

Guess Sergio Toppi still counts as sequential, each frame is a masterpiece

>>3880801
>>3880766
God damn how are these euro-artists so good at perspective?
It's like each panel is a window to the scene rather than a frame

Also how much time does Toppi spend on a page of his work? Some of his books are insanely detailed
>>3880750
I am the OP of the image, finding Fakku rips isn't fucking hard

>>3880859
Didier Poli was an animator. Animators always make beautiful comics.

Panaccione also is an animator.

>>3878938

PSTD. Guillaume Singelin is absolutely fantastic and the comic was actually really good besides the visuals.

>>3881053
More
It's also out in english, the style mght not be everyone's cup of tea but I really recommand it

>>3881053
>besides the visuals
but this looks great?

>>3881060
Uh sorry ESL. I meant visuals are great but that the comic is also great outside of visuals. Characters are nice, etc.

>>3878186
Why the hell would you pick an extremely painful way to die for suicide?

>>3881053
where do i read this?

>>3881165
I don't think it's online. I just bought it cause I follow the guy on social media and I've always loved his work. There's a french and US version is all I know

>>3878148
Very by the book, but I'll be damned if it's not well done.

Still one of my favorite spreads, the arc is so great

>>3880801
based, I thought I was the only one who loved Toppi
I have Sharaz-de and it's just so pretty

>>3878279
>what the is the best format to make a web comic on instagram
>Should I do a 2x2 square on 1 image, or should I do a sequence that you have to swipe through?
This is extremely painful
2x2 format is SHIT for anything narrative. I have tried it. It's shit. If you want to see how bad it is check the comic Endtown, which is a competent comic but completely crippled by the awful format.
2x2 is only good for comedy strips or 4koma.
I don't know instagram but I would rather make a sequence of square images, or even better, host the comic on an actual fucking website and post a frame or something nice to look at in the instagram, with a link to the comic in your profile.

>>3878191
This is really nice, love the faces.

>>3878965
I love his artstyle. You could just bucket fill it and it will look good.

>>3881676
Why does manga read right to left? This is nonsense.

>>3878148
here's some anti-inspo

>>3881846
that's the way japanese is written silly gajin

>>3881882
Then why do they write letters right to left? This way your right hand will get dirty. Are the Japanese all left-handed?

>>3881890
are all westerners left handed? they open the book with a left hand

>>3882479
Sauce?

>>3882479
This looks amazing

Fedirici is fucking amazing but is really tough to pull inspo from because he works at a really high level

Guys who are this skilled traditionally are just on a whole other level. It's just so insane to me. It's not photoshop and shit, it's real fucking paint. The fucking skill threshold

>>3879731
Does this count?

>>3880704
I like comics, but my script is still beg-tier for now. It'll still be able to somehow get fans because I'm into a specific genre, but I just can't bring myself to start initial art work on a story which has a quality I have little faith in.

Does anyone have that one manga page by the guy who tried for 20+ years to get published and never made it

Rough as it may be, the paneling Togashi used is fucking godlike. I have to stop and admire this page every time I see it.

>>3881153
To cleanse yourself.
It starts with you being incompetent. Then you start to hate that person for being so incompetent, despise them. You feel bad for all the time and resources that others have put into your upbringing that are now going into waste because of your incompetence. It's not fair, it's not fair that you have a roof over your head, good food and all those other things you never earned.
And now you've had enough, you are going to end it, and a cherry on top of you parasitizing on this otherwise beautiful world would be to go in a way that's easy and convenient for you - that would be truly pathetic. So you let the fire cleanse you, to show that you are sorry, to show that you're not indifferent to their effort, to bring at least a bit of balance into the formula

>>3883186
damn

>>3883250
that sounds interesting as fuck. i too wish to know

and whats the source of that? google images shows nothing

>>3880710
The fish lips kill it for me, not gonna lie. Btw is this french?

>>3883569
thats Kharisma Jati, dude's an indo nut who draws alot of edgy incest and gore. My man is insane.

>>3878232
I mean, that's from the James Sinclair era of Hellboy colorjng and not the Dave Stewart one. No duh it's different from the usually very good coloring you see on a Hellboy book.

>>3882479
Was this guy a Wrightson fan? It reminds me a lot of his Frankenstein work.

>>3884013
I'm not seeing it honestly, Wrightson has buttery slick brush inking
The face of the woman reminds me a bit of Kelley Jones (who's inspired by Wrightson) but that's about it, only thing I know about Varanda is that he works traditionally and -possibly- uses white ink often in his style

>>3884008
insane but a genuinely good artist

>>3884026
Wrightson didn't use his brushes too much for the Frankenstein pieces, they were made with Gillote 303s I think. I guess it's just the subject matter and the background hatching that makes me connect the artist with Wrightson.

Yea, I could see the semblance with the woman, mainly Kelley's work in Batman: Vampire. The prostitute specifically.

>>3884047
>Gillote
Yeah I realised his iconic Frankenstein plates were nib pieces after I posted.
Far as I know his actual comic/sequential stuff is mostly brush though, even "Frankenstein: Alive, Alive!"

>>3884060
They were indeed done mostly with a brush, though it's more necessity than an artistic choice for Alive, Alive. The guy broke his hand in the 90s and he could only use a brush to draw after recovering. Sad, really.

>>3878249
>>3878251
This comic is fine and all but I'd rather this guy was still doing shota pron

Big fan of this chapter, character and how the artist used the panelling here to differentiate this dream space from the waking world in the comic.

Web comics are fine right?

>>3884549

>>3884550

I'll have to dig it out

>>3884643
>>3884177
I'm going on a plane for ~10 hours, I'll post some of it around then after I've landed
It's some of his newer Wakfu doujins

>>3884801
>>3884177
Here we go

>>3885852
not as good as some of his other stuff but it's like 50 pages

I have saved the same two pages(among others)from YKK. Great taste.

Really want a hard copy of the series, but alas English release never. I need to just hunt down the Japanese version someday.

I started Made in Abyss yesterday, it's really pretty and unique. One thing it does that I haven't seen elsewhere are these first-person pov panels.
These highlight small details in the setting that I think would be difficult to show off with more traditional panel layouts (curved beams in the ceiling, cracks and trinkets by the mirror). If you spend a lot of time thinking about environments it might be worth trying this.

>>3891940

>>3891941
No pov here but the middle panels are cool

>>3891942

>>3891943
This isn't unique to MaB at all, but reminder that text controls how long the reader will be looking at a page. This seems worth mentioning because a lot of popular manga seem to be designed to be read as fast as possible.

>>3882636

In all fairness it also takes them eons to complete anything. So much so that's it's not really practical when it comes to comics (though there are rare cases where this has been done)

I like Liberatore's sketchy stuff too

but his cleaner stuff, man >>3882636

>>3892046
>>3892070
Yeah, Liberatore straight stopped doing comics because it was too much of a hassle, amongst other reasons. but guys like Juan Gimenez or Olivier Ledroit keep on going

Any images that evoke the feeling of summer?

>>3892259
I'm a simple man. If I see that water bottle, I get a stiffy.

>>3881890
They actually write top to bottom

>>3892259
Manga is the best mix of symbolism and realism. The water bottle and its shade looks real but just next to them is a symbolic manga face. And they all look natural.

>>3881882
This isn't that bad honestly. The business with all the small panels could be annoying but the panels are simple enough that it doesn't matter much. And while the art has issues, it's still servicable.

>>3878300
>tfw you already have this guy on one of the tabs
its never over guys

>>3878300
For people not retarded enough to know where to look, the Draft Works book is up

Boichi has a style that I find extremely appealing and inspirational. It's fairly realistic but not stiff, and has tons of expression. My only gripe is his women mostly look like blow up dolls

author is a girl. the girl on the right isnt exactly human. the character in the middle is a girl. also the guy on the left isn't actually a monster.

2deep4u

>>3901626
aww yes that manga is the shit. I cant wait for the anime of it coming this year

>>3901716
ha its actually a girl. The female mangakaka doesn't always draw the women in this manga attractively.

Also I hecked up the wing

>>3903203
i only found out about it last week from the gender of the artist thread. was surprised to find out this was made by a woman. im not sure which one of you posted in that gender thread, but thanks, its an awesome manga

Old mangos are a trip

>>3878191
Source? If this is a manga I'd be interested in reading it.

>>3901716
That's because females in most works are mostly for sex appeal. Because, you know... sex sells.

That said, some creators use the trope for political reasons to show that women are more civilized, evolved or human than men.

>>3903136
I'm still at the beginning but so far it's been pretty good. It has some really fucking hype moments, made even more hype due to the art. It does kinda meander a bit at the start, but once stuff is set up, it's quite good.

The serious/silly thing just seems to be how it is. I actually don't mind it too much, gives the manga some heart. You grow to like the characters a lot. Plus it doesn't take itself too seriously and come off as pretentious or 2deep.

Definitely worth reading

>>3878191
>>3878201
>>3878214
do you know the source?

>>3882511

some people hate themselves that much. It's scary but its real sometimes.

Is this what happens when you decide to turn your 100 box practice into an artwork?

>>3916271
no it's what happens when you explore digital art's possibilities for comics instead of simply using it as a crutch

>>3916289
I like you.

>>3903203
dorohedoro is great to be sure

>>3892259
more artists with this type of realistic rendering?

I know range murata also can do something similar

>>3922897
It's probably not your sort of comic then, I love his writing/comedy and I find myself with a big smile on my face reading the cuter stuff

Nothing wrong with just liking the art either, you need to learn to loosen up and enjoy things for what they are

Assuming I'm making a webcomic stylized as manga, with right to left reading, round speech bubbles (rather than the thin western ones), japanese tropes etc, but without any intentions of distributing it in the East; should I use japanese onomatopoeias? If so, do I include the English translation/transliteration near the kana?

>>3923309
You're already doing a ton of Japanese things for no practical purpose so why not. You can decide on a case by case basis whether it's necessary for the reader to know what the characters mean. Translated manga where the onomatopoeia are left as is are usually perfectly readable, though it's helpful if they have a tiny footnote at the bottom of the panel with translation

>>3923309
You can still do really cool onomatopoeia in English or any other language as long as you're good
But I also agree with what this anon said >>3923358
