Rem, I'm sorry if I'm intruding you but can you explain me the procedure of how you create the arts for the comics. They are amazing. ♡♡♡♡ I have always been a fan of your arts.....

thanks for your kindness. I’ll show you my method of working, it’s not said is correct, but it’s the one I like.

1. Write the plot. 

Luckily, I collaborate with @aoimotion, who’s the writer, so I don’t personally take care of this phase. But if you have a story in mind it’s always better to write a basic plot that will then help you to develop the story. Try to always be very flexible, ideas can always change and it’s up to you to choose the best solution for your story.

2. Story boarding.

these are the roots of your work. once the script is ready, I generally develop the whole storyboard, to establish the layout and the flow of the story between the various pages. 

3. Drawing

The funniest part, in my opinion. Once you are convinced of your story board, you can move on to the drawing phase. Also in this case, I generally prefer to draw all the pages before moving on to the definition phase. If the layout of the storyboard seems nice, you can rely on it, if in the meantime you had a better idea you can always modify the layout during the drawing phase. 

generally during this phase I also establish the shape, position and size of the baloons.

4. Inking

Well, here there is not much to explain. inking is not a mere “tracing”, it’s art, and the more you train, the more your work will gain in quality. you should have a lot of patience, it’s a long and boring phase.

5. Color, definition. this is the last phase, in which those, I color and I add shadows, lights and details. It’s fun because it’s quite “mind free” and allows you to indulge yourself according to your ideas and your aesthetic taste. But it requires a lot of time. And always remember to establish a point from which the light comes and hits the characters, so you can  have a clear idea of where lights and shadows should be.

it’s a work that requires a lot of time and patience. If you like comics, try not to be discouraged by the poor results or the time you lose. We all fall into mistakes and think that the time spent studying or sperimenting is never waste and it will be useful in the future.I advise you to observe a lot of the professional artists, get inspired and try to imitate them until you come to a style that you like and feel yours. And then I suggest you to read some page layout guides (it will be useful to understand the correct order of the panels and the meaning of the shots according to the various perspectives).

Chapter VIII - Prologue (page 2)

<< Prev - Next>>

Gallery

Hi guys, Aoi there. I decided to change the publication method for the Episode VIII. We’re going to release the prologue first, page by page, one every 2-4 days; then, when every page will be published, we’ll make the usual post containing the whole prologue. Same goes for the chapter itself. Below every page there’ll be a link to the previous page and a link to the next page (if they exist) so it should be easy to follow the story, even with this kind of release. I’ll also make sure to update the Google Drive folder containing all the episodes with every new page. If you, by any chance, should still lose track of the prologue/chapter, you can always check out our DeviantArt folder: https://aoirem2816.deviantart.com/gallery/63159785/Black-Jack-Comic This will be a crucial chapter. We hope to pull the strings of the story with it. It won’t be easy, but we’ll definitely do our best. As always, thank you for your support – which is huge and heartwarming.
