Been trying to create some Original Characters, have a general idea, was trying to improve the line art and finalization in mangá style, would like to let it as if we were reading some black e white painting comic.Any critiques,suggestions,tips and ideas if possible! thanks all!
Mark crilley's YouTube channel should help out with improving manga style drawings.
Hi @Pedro Henrique D'Oliveira
your drawings are a good starting point for the further development. I like how you are doing the hair. The girls eyes are in the wrong position for me, her right eye is too deep. I tried to correct it with a simple transformation on the computer to show my point. How are you constructing your heads?
@Dominik Zeillinger Man Awefreakingsome THANKS! i knew there was something wrong, a friend wich i showed said something about the eyes but we couldnt identify what it was.I willl pay more attention to that. About how i am constructing the head, i normally make the main sphere, the middle line and vertical line, i've been trying to use the "head slice" from proko's classes" to forge the jaw position, and ears, but the eyes i tend to follow the middle horizontal line, in wich i try making angle positions,from what im seeing it seems when you corrected the eyes position it tended to let the forehead more clear as well the deep of where the eyes were supposed to be, even though its manga , is that right?

Even though your style choice is manga, it really doesn't hurt to go through Proko's figure drawing and portrait drawing classes to get the fundamentals. The face and body structure is the same, it's just more simplified in Manga. For quick fixes on your current upload, I think your tendency is to draw eyes too close to each other. Both in realistic and manga or comic book style, the distance between two eyes is usually at least one eye apart. Manga tends to exaggerate that as well to achieve a youthful look. And when the person doesn't face the camera, like in your first drawing, the eye that's farther away from us should be shorter.
Thanks Rebebcca! i will take a time into portrait drawings, havent yet!yeah i had sometime with the eyes.
