I remember doing a manga page process way back when I still do everything with pencil (and badly to boot) and all I did was scan it in. My method changed a lot since then but as always, I made it up to work for myself so it’s really lacking in the professionalism area and it’s probably got a fucking ton of wrong ways to do things. I also do a lot of weird stuff with Blackbird pages that I would not do if I were drawing another manga; I don’t know why but it also makes parts of my procedure unstandard. Lastly, I think it’s too difficult to capture work process because all I can do is show what the work looks like and not really show how to do what I just did. So, I never made another tutorial for a long time. I decided to make one today anyway, and tried to make it as detailed as I could, (at first I seriously could only think of like 3 steps) hopefully it’s somewhat useful!

Here’s the finished page first, and the full process is under the cut (:

I wasted today away doing this ): I think I tried to do this a year or so ago but I sucked at it and I knew it was going to take FOREVER so I gave up… and decided it would be a GREAT use of time to give this a try again today.

I was thinking about doing Blackbird instead because it would be a lot easier, but then I thought WOULDN’T IT BE WAY MORE FUN TO DRAW SOMEONE WHO IS INCAPABLE OF OVER HALF OF THESE EXPRESSIONS? So I did veloce instead. I didn’t know what a few of the words meant and like 7 of them look the same because of how she is… but thanks to this meme she actually looks like she may have a personality even though she doesn’t
