Does anybody have a good book on WRITING comics? I've been writing for quite some time but I'm having trouble translating what I know about novel and short story writing to comic books.

>>4241799
Scott McCloud (Zot!) has a couple of books out on this very subject.

[Lorenzo Etherington] How To Think When You Write (Blogspot Compilations)(001-158 (Ongoing))(missing 151-152)[English].cbz

>>4241813
Thanks, my dude.

>>4241813
>>4241799
Can confirm. Scott McCloud's books are far better than any other "how to make comics" kind of books you could possibly find

>>4241799
The 2000 AD Script Book has numerous examples to sift through; I'd recommend finding others like it, even if they don't look as pretty.

https://mega.nz/#!gtNQgY6L!p7vPA_fLOUwxINMBzAX62w_xx282FVQoMhUHDGtiCpE

There are lots of scripts leftover from the webcomic boom of the late 90s and early 00s. God, I wish the Warren Ellis Forum were still around.
>>4241876
Scott McCloud's books (Understanding Comics and Making Comics, specifically) are just foundational texts for Comics Studies. They're great reads, but he doesn't give any examples as to how writers actually work in the industry.

Pdfdrive has shit tons of books.
You can probably find what youre looking for.

Dorohedoro's anime adaptation airs next month; it would be wonderful if someone scanned these:

Requesting "Santoro School's Handbook To Making Better Comics".

I saw this in a comic shop, twelve pages of information that's super valid, but it's TWENTY-FIVE FUCKING DOLLAH-RI-DOOS.

Question
what is the best file format, aka high quality/small size, to keep all these artbooks

pdf, cbr, cbz, epub?

>>4242120
cbz, definitely not pdf.

Can anyone recommend reference books on Medieval Europe?
I used to have a nice book when I was a kid that had everything. Armors, clothing, weapons, architecture, fortresses, it even had a section about dungeons and torture devices. There were all kinds of details about how things worked and why they were built the way they were.
I wish I could remember the title, I miss that fucking book.

Jesus you dumb shits. Stop uploading so many books by big name publishers (Disney, marvel, dark horse, kadokawa, etc) and digital books to E-hentai. God damn game magazines that are still sold in stores? Brand new digital books?

The place only accepts Artbooks because they don't care and it flies under the radar. For years it was mostly just 25 year old mecha artbooks and other obscure things no one would care about. If there's any attention/focus on them they could easily start cracking down on these. Just takes one publisher to get pissy and file a legal complaint and all hell would break lose. And they have a super soft "expunge" policy which barely does anything. Tomorrow they could just delete all the expunged galleries if they wanted to.

Stop playing with fire nitwits. You're going to ruin things for everyone. Be way more selective to what's uploaded. 10, 20, 30 year old mecha/otaku shit? Sure. Brand new digital edition of some book? No. And half that shit is ugly garbage anyways.

It's not meant to be a den of piracy of modern Japanese media. We got nyaa for that.

Nagru Manga Organizer is slow as hell, but I guess it'll have to do for now. Sorting through these 4,000+ artbooks that aren't labeled properly is going to take forever.

>>4242206
>I wish I could remember the title
Any chance it's Castle by David Macauley?

>>4242151
but sometimes the size is like 3, 4 times bigger in cbz though

>>4242306
They're the exact same. Grab a zip file and rename it to .cbz, it'll automatically open in your image viewer and have thumbnails.

>>4242311
pic related is what i meant

>>4242304
That's defiantly not it, but it's the kind of recommendation I was looking for.
Gonna check this one out. Thanks, anon.

>>4242337
That's because PDF is usually compressing your images further. ZIP\CBZ leaves the files unaltered.

from previous thread: there's supposedly a book that has a bunch of different comic artists inking a pencils page. does anyone know what it is?

>>4241799
the jojo guy has a book. it's been in these threads before. manga in theory and practise by Hirohiko Araki.

>>4242343
There's also a book called Built to Last, that combines three of Macauley's books: Castle, Cathedral, and Mosque. Castle was originally published in 1982, and that's the version that I have. In 2013, Macauley published a revised version in full colour.

I remember seeing another, more colourful book similar to what you described - and I swear I bought it for my son - but I can't find it. Either I only thought about it and never actually bought it, or we already sold it back to Half Price Books for nothing.

There's also a Dorling Kindersley ("DK") Eyewitness book called Castle that is similar to the Macauley book.

>>4242120
cbr/cbz, without a doubt; pdf compresses them too much and people only use epub out of convenience.

>>4242250
underrated post
this guy knows how to do illegal shit properly

>>4242120
The correct answer is none of the above because you're asking the wrong question. All of these are container formats that have no direct relation to image quality.

PDF and epub may contain images at various quality and resolution mixed with text. CBR/CBZ are images contained in a RAR/ZIP format.

The best thing to do is not to convert anything unless you know what you're doing.

>>4242681
He was obviously asking which format he should save the artbooks he already has in. He asked the correct question, the answer to which is cbz/zip.

Finished scanning this thing. I have to crop and clean it still. Also the paper is a bit cheap so you can see texture on all the pages. Maybe it can be resolved with Denoise or something. Well, whatever.

>>4242682
>He was obviously asking which format he should save the artbooks he already has in.
And my answer was he shouldn't change the format of whatever he downloaded.
>the answer to which is cbz/zip
No. If you have a good PDF and convert it to images, you're rasterizing text while unnecessarily re-encoding images. You're losing quality.

>>4242110
Looked up his art, it's just garbage wtf
Not even in a stylistic sense, he's just got no technical skill

>>4242689
He never mentioned retail PDFs m8, he's just asking if he should convert his CBZs to PDFs to save space. Try to keep up. >>4242337

>>4242695
>he's just asking if he should convert his CBZs to PDFs to save space
Again, my answer was he needs to keep files in the format he found them in. If he found them as CBZ, there's no reason to convert to PDF. If he found them as PDF, there's no reason to convert to CBZ. Do you see how this is not contradictory?

Don't convert, period.

can't believe these chicks spread their asshole and vag uncensored, I wonder if they got JAV actresses for the models.

>>4242961
the vag is clearly censored (tho poorly), but with the asshole full on displayed you really wonder what the slants in japan are thinking with their laws

>>4242965
They don't view the anus ass a sex organ unless it's being fucked/played with. Until then it remains uncensored.

Anyone got this?

>>4242935
ok kinda interesting

>>4242250
it's irrelevant what you say, yande are buying and scanning the newest jp books however they want. If anything zoomers putting up disney and marvel is totally on them, idk who even cares about their books.

also why would a publisher care about a book (that usually doesn't see large sales anyways) that's been scanned and dl like 20 times.. they make their biggest artbook sales with preorders since people usually want the physical shit for good books.

Look up how books are treated if they don't sell and need to be scrapped to make room for new releases on the shelves.... publishers literally need to be pay money to get the books destroyed since keeping them at a warehouse is even more expensive. That's the sad truth about book publishing (or rather for authors) and why everything is going more towards digital, since you can sell literal 0 value pixels for money.

>>4242377
>the jojo guy has a book.
And it's kind of bad; I wish people would stop recommending it. No one needs a 200+ page biography that outlines the basics of shōnen story structure. When it comes to writing comics, a lot of mangaka don't use the screenplay format like their western counterparts and Araki doesn't give any insight as to why. Surely there are books on how to actually write stories for manga manuscripts, right?

>>4242683
looking forward to this; looks great, anon

>>4243281
the araki book has the entire manga process in it tho, not just the story structure, also people like jojo and how araki writes so thats prolly why its recommended so much

Does anyone have a link for this Psycho Pass artbook? All of the DDL links I've found are dead.

How would you guys describe this book?
Is it teaching material with exercises or a reference book with theory?

Heading to japan in January, any crabs living there or with prior experience know good places where they sell art/reference books?

>>4245422
Depends on what kind of references you are looking for and where you at.

Any big book store like kinokuniya's has the recent stuff and Sekaido's has books as well as art supplies and are easy to navigate, usually my main go to places.

If you like old books and want the thrill of finding a gem, there is the town jinbocho but if you are there on a holiday I wouldn't recommended as it takes hours browsing through all the bookstores and you may not come home with anything.

I am hoping a n/ic/ker scanned this already, if not; requesting.

>>4245438
Oh shit I liked that guys other book, framed ink or something? I didn't know he had another one. Fuck yeah I hope this is scanned

>>4245429
Nice, thanks. I’ll probably just be in Tokyo ( possibly Osaka or Kyoto) looking for weeb art books, I’m particularly interested in reference books with mechanical stuff in it. If there’s no secret store full of rare art books I’ll probably just end up browsing the big stores like you mentioned and pick up whatever looks cool.

>>4245480
There are specialty stores like one in Koganecho, Yokohama but I don't think you'd find what you are after at stores like these.

Kinokuniya in Ikkebukuro is large, you'd definitely find something you'd like there and if you do go to Osaka Junkundo in Umeda is probably your best bet.

>>4245503
Thanks again, really appreciate the info.

>>4242683
Maybe you know this but if you don't, search up Scantailor advanced its good for semi-auto cropping and straightening scans.

In advance, it's okay if it isn't scanned. I'm totally fine with buying it (and scanning it if me and my scanner can finally get along). Does anyone know a good book for traditional artists transitioning to digital? I want to scan my art and do digital paint overs (remember to wear masks when you paint so you don't end up like me kids). I know how to paint, just not how to paint in Photoshop basically.

>>4245336

This one's a long shot, but does a scan of this book exist? It's the full storyboards for the Angel's Egg movie.

looking for high quality/decent scans of the art book of Devilman Crybaby (or some scans of images they had at the Sabbath Shibuya event) since I am looking references for something I want to draw

any help would be appreciated

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/madoverlord/gunsmith-cats-explosive-edition

With the rewards shipping out, is there anyone scanning the artbook that comes with it? Plus the ATF Case Files which seems pretty cool.

>>4246237
>>4246014
>>4246349

At some point you gotta just buy and scan this yourselves. There are like 5-10 people in the entire world who consistently scan Japanese guide/art books.

>>4246364
sorry but I don't have 200 dollars in disposable income just to buy some art book for Japan

>>4246349
Never mind, it seems they put up the entire archive of the production materials and artwork on their wiki site: https://wiki.animeigo.com/wiki/doku.php/gsc:start

That is so fucking based.

>>4246393

Would you be willing to compile it all into a cbz, and then upload it to archive or e-hentai? Just to be a dear for us?

>>4246385
>sorry but I don't have 200 dollars in disposable income just to buy some art book for Japan

Well I guess you're out of luck then? 200 dollars is not much. Think of it as payment for all the artbooks and other pirated Japanese media that other people have made available over the years that you enjoy.

Start saving up now and in a few months you'll ahve it. Even 5 bucks a week will only take 40 weeks. Crowd fund among friends/family. Cut some minor things and divert it to the fund. Like drink some 10 cent Ceylon tea instead of ordering out. Whatever it is I guraantee you if you're a westerner you spend hundreds on bullshit every year and you barely even notice it.

If you really want the book you'll make sacrifices for it. Otherwise you're looking for a handout.

>>4246396
I dunno, my upload speed is terribly slow. If the pdf is formatted in a way that can be cleanly extracted (as in just embedded jpegs), I'll give it a try. Otherwise the wiki is there to stay so it's not like it's going anywhere.

>>4246400
>Otherwise the wiki is there to stay so it's not like it's going anywhere.

hahahahahahha

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHA

Every website dies. Every website dies. Remember this. Websites seem eternal but fast forward 5-10, 20, + years and they'll all be dead. Back everything up.

>>4246401
Yeah I know, the recent drawr makes this very real.
But in this particular case, it's run by a group of passionate nerds, not soulless corporate. So they know better than to burn down years of content down the drain.

They even have an archive of their super old site: archive.animeigo.com
So they are very aware of the importance of archival.

Doesn't mean that we shouldn't archive it, just you know, they're not like other websites (tm) so we don't need to assume the worst.

Some of the artbooks I bought are too big for my scanner. I guess I finally have to buy a new scanner, but the wide ones that can fit an artbook are usually expensive.

>>4246427
Craigslist and eBay are great for finding shit like that for cheap

>>4246014
This book is about $35 + shipping on Mandarake. I don't want to pay for it, but I wouldn't mind scanning it (my attitude towards most scan requests).

>>4246435
Ebay is worthless nowadays, they price match with Amazon.

>>4246440
Lame. Craigslist it is then.

>>4246427

I've thought about this possibility. Would it not be posssible to scan sections and then merge them together?

>>4246398
eh... I think there was a forum where they had it but the download for it got removed

>>4246237
is anyone looking for this right now?

>>4246478
That's my only option right now. The downside is that it might lead to imperfect images (imagine joining a complex illustration from 4 different piecemeal scans that completely covers two pages).

does anyone have those screenwriting masterclass courses?

It was a reference from that one popular anime from th 1980s, where the characters refer to ranks that went fron A to D, then S and SS were super high in class.

>>4248330

I don't think that's an anime thing. Japan has S class ranking that's above A. Now I get what they were going for. I thought "SS" was short for something, rather than it's SS grade.

Anything on his workflow in the book?

>>4249313
Just check "search low power tags" when searching.

>>4249358
Very little. It's basically a really big coffee table book ... but it's so large and crammed full of so much of his art that you'd be hard pressed to find a better source if you wanted to study him.

There are a few studies in the book (like pic related), and there are some text pieces where he described certain aspects of his process, but almost all of the book is given over to his finished work; for example, there's a swath of nearly 100 pages right in the middle given over to 3 x3 grids of covers Leyendecker had painted for Collier's Weekly and the Saturday Evening Post, interspersed with larger reproductions of similar paintings.

Leyendecker was nothing if not prolific. He painted for the Saturday Evening Post over four decades from the May 20, 1899 issue through 1943, producing 322 different covers - topping even the streak set by his contemporary, Norman Rockwell. The book contains all 322 covers and, it says, shows some of them more than once. I'm not sure which ones are duplicates, as it marks them as being "of particular importance", but I suspect they are the larger images interspersed throughout the gallery section on some of the facing pages.

>>4251243
I've been a fan of his work after a random search for idea on vintage design for a label commission. Something about his brush strokes and the stylisation caught my eyes and fascinating. When will someone compile his cover arts like the one they did to Norman Rockwell ? I'm making my own collection of that at the moment because I can't really go to the museum where his works are being exhibited personally. Not to mention that the book costs more on the delivery part rather than the book itself, just because I'm neither a US or EU resident, even the used book are pricier, just for the delivery kek.

You should add the titles to your descriptions so they show up in search. Just copy-paste the content filenames.

>>4251514
And let the company came to flag it for removal?

>>4251606
Is this your first time using the internet archive? No one flags anything for removal. In fact Nintendo lost a lawsuit when they tried to do that. What's the point of uploading them if you can't find what you're looking for with a search?

>>4251618

No thanks, ESL-kun.

>>4251626
>not downloading everything in a bulk
How it feels like to have a poorfag pc, cumskin. Fyi, I'm not ESL, mutt, more like ETL.

>>4251635
I already have all of those artbooks and more, so I'm good. No need to get buttmad over a simple suggestion to make it easier to search.

>>4251641
Well, just don't. Do it yourself inside your drive.

>>4251683
>Well, just don't. Do it yourself inside your drive.
I don't want to give you a stroke for attempting English, so I'm gonna leave you be. Try not to be so mad next time. At least the uploads were tagged as "artbook" so they're not entirely lost in the void.

>>4251685
NO. Just NO.

>>4251732

>>4250569
on the suggestion of an anon, i have gone ahead and posted the names of the books in the descriptions as another way for people to see the catalouge, but I also installed some of the final books i managed to come across aka some king of fighters and street fighter manhuas, and a few persona artbooks. due to irl stuff this is the end of the artbook project that i've been doing over the past few months in my free time, and i would be lying if i said that seeing the artbook threads from prior past while hunting as far back as april weren't the main motivator for this along with other reasons. In the end thanks to you guys and my teammates 2500 artbooks have been archived to internet archive, but this is the end of the project. Might come back in the future with more stuff but who knows

thanks for being part of the ride /ic/, hope the archive can be of great use

>>4251802

wtf with that question.
just read it, its a good book

Hey quick question. Is there an option to get notified of the people tryna import your folders to their own mega cloud storage?

>>4252100
Why would you need to and why the hell do you think mega would provide the means to do that?

>>4252100
That would prompt mega to add new lines of code. I had pro mega account around 2017, never noticed if it does notify.

>>4252117
just wondering if mega has that option

>>4252122
ok thanks

You're a good person anon. Your months of work will be years of resources for us. God bless.

If you like his style, yes, it's worth it.

It explains extensively his process, both in terms of drawing technique and thought process.

>>4250569

Cool. It's missing a few of the gameside issues. Here's the rest:

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:9911c52b22949e99a058840d8def33ad09a3fc38&dn=Gameside%20Mook%20collection%20%28Action%2C%20shooting%2C%20RPG%2C%20Adventure%29&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fnyaa.tracker.wf%3A7777%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.stealth.si%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.opentrackr.org%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fexodus.desync.com%3A6969%2Fannounce

There's also some other gameside mooks and I'm not sure what they are. I think they're interviews?

Would anyone want to actually scan these? These are digital rips and just compilation of material from gameside proper. Maybe scan the original magazines too?

>>4251443

Does anyone have the book Picture This by Molly Bang? I found a PDF on Google but it seems to be missing large chunks of the book. Only 95 pages as opposed to 134 in the physical copy. Pic related is the cover.

>>4251030

long shot but anyone has this?

Checked and seconded.

Semi-related to the topic but does anyone have any resources on increasing reading speed? Mine is so abysmally slow that I have to reread sentences midway.

What books do you recommend for drawing clothes and wrinkles?

Just look through the archive

Requesting: "Granblue Fantasy Graphic Archive V" and "Graphic Archive V Extra Works".

The others volums are in internet so I confident in some point the V volume is going to be available.

>>4260609
Semi-related, do you just want them to look at or are you attempting to emulate the style? If so, I've been wondering how you go about it. I don't understand what makes GBF the way it is. The color choices are interesting, but there's a lot of brown put in somehow that still works.

>>4260611

For now, just to look at them. It would be crazy awesome if I could copy their style, but that's something I'd not achieving anytime soon... maybe never. :(

>>4260609
ok V's Extra Works looks pretty lit

>>4258582

You're on a piracy thread. Stop trying to be a fucking moralfag hypocrite.

>>4261226

He's asking people to stop being bitches and buy/scan something yourself. Few things are scanned and few people are scanning and they have limited resources.

>>4261232
He's asking people to stop being bitches about how slow requests and scans are delivered and is telling them to help scan in books if they're in a hurry because there aren't many people who do scans. Except he's not willing to do it himself.

I see nothing wrong with telling people begging in art threads to nut up and help scan.

Was this scanned?

>>4259789
how big is this, dude?

>>4257271
my knees suck, I KNEED this :)

>>4261232
>>4261251
Oh well THAT is understandable if that's what he actually meant. I have no problem with that.


Speaking of scans. I see that the Scott Robertson books got taken down by MEGA. I have the two books myself but I currently can't afford a printer at this time. That sucks because I prefer them in PDF form. The books themselves are too big and clunky for me.

>>4250569
How do I access this? I click on the cover and it's just one image? WTF
THis is probably stupid, but I'm really having a hard time

>>4261664
You're a special kind of retard.

>>4261664
Click on a thumbnail, scroll down, look at the right column near the bottom that's labeled "DOWNLOAD OPTIONS" in bold letters, and download the books you want as .zip or ,torrent. Some of the books can be downloaded individually, others have been collected and compressed into a single .zip file. In the latter's case, using a torrent might be the faster option due to their sheer size.

>>4261672
I eventually figured it out but it wasn't that obvious.

You're a special kind of retard to assume that anyone who doesn't think exactly like you is mentally disabled.

>>4261740
To be fair, it was pretty obvious.

"How to Draw" by Scott Roberson isn't downloadable from mega anymore

>>4262481

>>4262467
Is the discord group worth joining? the interview thing is a huge hassle.

>>4262524
If you speak Japanese and Korean AND you can contribute to them yeah it's worth joining. But then it's a discord group.

I just know the users who shared and uploaded their bought e-books to yande.re in the first place decided to migrate to their own discord server with other yande.re uploaders and pool money to buy e-books for themselves, then sharing it to the yande.re forum weeks or months after they acquired the books. I just refer to it as yandere discord retroactively because of them going away the forums since last year.

>>4262548
The discord server's primary language is Japanese/Chinese?

>>4262552
English. I meant the books they rip are usually Japanese and Korean

>>4241797
does anyone care about this book i bought from japan? It has different poses and angles inside. theres a disk that has all the images on there as well

>>4262687
Yes please.
Is the disk just a clone of the physical book? If so ripping it should be easy.

>>4262695
The disk actually is just a html website. You click on different pages and it shows all the images there. I assume its basically just a catalog of all the images in the book organized

>>4262687
That book is a useful reference for Fujoshi and Fudanshi artists. Just concentrated on drawing and not shlick and lose your way. Don't rip your copy friend.

Here's the 3 books including that book of yours.
https://www74.zippyshare.com/v/bZk6WyIS/file.html

I don't know of a usual site for these, and if there is a usual site for it link me up. These male pose books are either on vk community pages or yande.re. I never see them shared on sadpanda and 4chan.

>>4262761

I'll def look into buying more then. I got this one because I knew these were scarce. I did find a few on yande.re though, so i can take some off my list. (Though I also want the physical copy for aesthetic reasons lol)

Also thank you for this link, anon!

for starters, the artist's older work in that very picture I responded to. It went form rather interesting to uninspired coomer shit.

>>4241797
Long shot, but does anyone have Adachi Shingo's artbook? I think he's great.

Two recommendations for everyone for sketching from b-ok.cc

- Artists Guide to Sketching - James Gurney
/book/5304130/7b91c4
Didn't realise he had another educational book but came across it in one of his videos. Its a bit too heavy on text for me but sound otherwise.

- The Art of Pencil Drawing - Ernest W. Watson
/book/2581073/982669
Known more for his creative perspective book, this is an incredible book for sketching instruction, full of beautiful drawings in a tonal style and very logical text.

Does anybody have the James Jean sketchbooks? I used to have them on my old computer but that's since broken and I can't seem to find them in the mega folders anymore. I'm getting back into copying artists so they'd be much appreciated! :)
