Ever since I started studying the style back in the 6th grade I've really wanted to be great at drawing manga. Does anyone else share this passion? -------------------- My Reference_1 Deviant Art "Doing the wrong thing is always right" Drawings by mfggers: Omnomlicous - Jazz - Bip

Learning it at this point will make you lousy at it and everyone will be able to tell you're a foreigner. You won't land any jobs. -------------------- hi im ted i have a ref

I think you should make more where the toast does different things and put them in a rotating signature.

That's quite a negative view on learning a language.

Won't the fact that he's not Japanese give him away as being a foreigner? :/

Regardless of whichever language he's speaking.

Group: Members Posts: 3040 Member No.: 1874 Joined: 11-February 06 Status: (0d)	keeping in mind that japanese artists idolize the styles of american comic books, wouldnt the fact that hes trying to draw like the japanese instead of their ideal style, which originated where hes from, piss them off? im sure american comic artists make more anyway. everyone on da who works profesionally seems to have a pretty stable life and a fun time working. unlike the japanese artists who ***** and complain and die alone and from starvation -------------------- DeviantArt - Ref
