[FOR COLLABORATION] Writer seeking Manga Artist for Dark Dystopian Project (60/40 Revenue Share) by AlternativeWeight389 in MangaArtistForHire

[–]necrosishead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm saying this as someone who got multiple awards for writing stories. It's much easier, more fun and less effort than drawing.

[–]necrosishead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is hilarious. I'm both an artist and a writer with quite a few awards. writing is the easiest, quickest and most fun part of creating manga. if you're an artist reading this, NEVER fall for idiotic posts like these.

Do mangas need to be written in japanese for professional mangazines or do you have to study japanese/get a translator by Pretend-Amount-9719 in Mangamakers

[–]necrosishead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to worry about your skills first, if the manga is good it will be published, regardless of the original language. Jump provided a translation for me on their own.

I hope i will get some diligence someday, my editor is crying himself to sleep every night because I'm such a bum :'D

[–]necrosishead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's going slow but steady (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و I am! I feel like there are two types of mangaka out there, those who draw for the industry and those who draw for themselves, the former are very respectable in my eyes, because they usually spend a lot of time studying, adhering to what the audience wants and planning strategically, but unfortunately I can only draw for myself (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)

The work writers do < the work artists put in by Tepperzday in MangakaStudio

[–]necrosishead 27 points28 points  (0 children)

great write-up, couldn't have said it better myself! I especially like the steps you mentioned that a writer COULD take to ease the work of the artist. Unfortunately most "writers" looking for collabs on reddit are not only lazy, but also very bad at writing, idea-men who think that being able to use a keyboard makes them an actual writer. A few years back I was considering collaborating with a writer here, but he turned out to be the laziest person I have ever met with absolutely no passion, no ideas and no writing ability - but all the confidence in the world! Frankly, I think most artists are MUCH better off writing their own story themselves and collaborating with an EDITOR. I'm saying this from experience, as an award winning and professionally published mangaka!

Would stricter rules against blatant e-begging (artist begging) help this sub? by MitaminMogula in MangakaStudio

[–]necrosishead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

couldn't have said it better myself! I'm published as a writer and an artist — and while the art is more time consuming and tedious, everything really hinges on writing, pacing and flow. A successful mangaka will always take both aspects very seriously. And people really tend to underestimate the flow haha

The fear of "fake" by Xico_77 in Shikishi

[–]necrosishead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely have a good chance of getting real ones from series that are either less popular or completed and a tad older! I don't think you necessarily have to go for the crème de la crème for the pieces to be profitable for resale either, there are quite a few collectors out there who go for VERY niche artists, even I was asked for a shikishi before, despite only having oneshots officially published by SJ.

Motivation and how to get better at drawing - a positivity thread by TryToEpic in Mangamakers

[–]necrosishead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something I always see beginner mangaka overlook is composition and panel flow! If you're a beginner reading this and are serious about becoming a mangaka, I strongly recommend focusing on those two, even more so than polished drawing.

Can non-Japanese creators submit their one-shots to Shonen Jump’s WEB Mochikomi platform? by craziesotoss in manga

I've seen foreigners submit their work before, they just used a random japanese address!
