Guest HugeFurubaFan Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 Okay, my dilema is that I have loadsa ideas for different mangas. I usually do a bunch of character profiles and draw a few rough chapters...then quit. Eh...half of my ideas end up lying around, unfinished. :animecry: There is one however, where I do like a lot of the characters but it just seems that there's no actual plot!!! So I dunno if I'm allowed to ask for help with ideas or not but...well if you want to.
Berry187 Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 you could enter the Manga rising stars competition for [URL=http://tokyopop.com/news/mangatalent/index.php][U][COLOR=RoyalBlue]TokyoPop[/URL][/COLOR][/U](if you live in the U.S) but if you wanna do it the hared way I?ll be happy to help just name what you want to be done.
sakurasuka Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 [CENTER][SIZE=1]Hello, there! Well... I am sort of that way, too. I would love to help you if you wouldn't mind telling us a bit about the story/characters, love. Is it an action manga? Romance? Perhaps comedy or horror? I've done a bit of storyline-plotting and such, but I never have been quite good enough to illustrate them. Not that I haven't tried, of course. Maybe you could post/pm me some of your charecter bios and the storyline you have so far? Then I'm sure you'd get loads of help from me/Berry/other OtakuBoarders. Well, much luck and all.[/SIZE][/CENTER]
duoikari Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 dude i am exsactly the same i have tones of ideas but even when i put just one down on paper i totally lose interest in the whole story. I'd be happy to help you but first tell what is the genre and the bases of the story and the characters. I mean like is it a shouen or is it shoujo or do you just want a story that please everyone something on the same lines as Naruto or Bleach, you know the type that i mean the type that is good for all ages and all genders.? :catgirl:
Guest Shinta07 Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I think it becomes unappealing because i'm restricted to panels and it can't take up the entire space
TigerFantasy17 Posted September 21, 2005 Posted September 21, 2005 oh..wel first u should start with the plot and lay it all out..than characters and personalities.. then design..and plan it along the way..uummm..er...maybe this sounds like a lecture wel good luck..
kitsunekami Posted September 24, 2005 Posted September 24, 2005 you know, i actually have the EXACT same problem. so what i do is just think about it until i like it and it forms a plot, and if it doesn't... then i give up. i have about twenty series and i've given up on all of them but the one i have planned on working on. i just keep them all filed in case i can pick it up one day and it'll look good or i can fix it.
XxmoraiNAKIxX Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 haha, i know how you feel.i go through the same thing, but i practiced a lotand i think i got the hang of it. well this is what I did... ok, well i just jot down notes and what the chara's gonna say on a memo-note and then I just drew sum rough sketches. ( the senery too) and the rough sketch dosent need to be perfect. then after that, I ...OH one more thinGGG! importantTTT! do the rough sketchin light blue pencil!!!! with dosen't cum up on the final copy, so you can save your time not eracing. ok.. as i was saying.. thenI went over that with fine point pen..then youknow the other stuff right?? highlights...tone...etc. ok. well good luck and when youget your manga done and if you become a pro, i hope i'll see you there!and battleeee~~! haha!!::eye to eye lighting buzzz:: O_O
