Description Someone wanted me to show how I draw comics on Photoshop, so I did! (Yes, it is a Korean version)

I use Photoshop CS5 but I think any Photoshop version (provided they have the tools mentioned in the tutorial) work just as well. I cannot help SAI/GIMP users much...

Please also keep in mind that if you wish to draw comics perhaps more professionally, there are better tutorials out there. This is a very very rough and simple one that I am used to.

Enjoy!

EDIT: Oh goodness...thank you for the DD ;w; I am happy this little tutorial is very helpful!

EDIT2: I have added a mini tutorial on how I do thought bubbles in this post

First off, WONDERFUL tutorial. It was very informative and I learned a lot from it. Quick question though, you refer to your inking tool as a "4px hard edge paint tool", I was just wondering what exactly a "hard edge paint tool" is?

ky-nim In reply to WaywardDoodles [2011-08-15 01:04:00 +0000 UTC]

It's the one that has the non-fuzzy circle when you open the brush options and I set the width/size to 4pixels

Wooh!!, this is a really big help, specially since I was considering to start my own nuzlocke after reading yours and some others. Now I'm all set to start drawing (and grind like hell in pokemon).

I wish I already have the money to buy a graphic tablet.... (or at least a pen for the one I already have)

I'm using the pen tool for my lineart... but if I wanted to do a comic this way it would take forever ^^'

Random: I have a free full version of photoshop CS5 if you'd like a copy. It'd come in a zip file, but I could tell you how to open it.

Sorry - saw your comment on this deviation, and thought I could help save ya some money

Thank you so much for sharing this! It's super helpful! I'm just figuring out how to do more digital artwork...I'm a late comer to it! I'm so used to drawing by hand! I'm really starting to see the limitations with that though; especially since I'd like to make comics too. This really clears it up though!

Thanks!

Hid it all as spam.

SilverSugar In reply to ky-nim [2011-08-16 20:22:54 +0000 UTC]

Things hidden as spam act as a report against the user commenting. Since the comments are hidden, I cannot read them to see if someone was actually spamming you, I just wanted to let you know there is a difference between hiding a comment and marking it as spam.

With no context, I had a hunch that you were just hiding a private conversation. Which is okay, but not if it gets someone wrongly reported. Please ignore this if I am out of line.

Good day and congratulations on the DD~! *sparkles* I really like this tutorial--very, very helpful.

ky-nim In reply to SilverSugar [2011-08-16 20:30:59 +0000 UTC]

Well actually the person requested the thread to be hidden, but it was also rather spam-filled at the end. So I chose to go for the spam route.

And thank you!

SilverSugar In reply to ky-nim [2011-08-16 20:38:34 +0000 UTC]

Okay that makes sense then.


You're welcome. You totally deserve it. Also, I realized that I've seen your art around--but not on dA that I can remember... So, I'm totally watching you now. Happy day~!

Oh lord, I cannot remember anymore, sorries. It was a while ago. Somewhere related to Pokemon Nuzlockes though since I do believe I've read some of yours already. If I do recall and it isn't approved by you--I'll help you report it.
