    Pencils, erasers: needless to say, fools know. However, there are some small details that should be remarked, it is best to buy professional 4B erasers for erasers, and go to stores specializing in art supplies to buy, such as Boya Zhai and Juwenxuan.

    Pencils are also, if you have a strong hand, or more layman, it is always easy to draw mistakes, pencils buy 3b or 4b, this kind of pencil is softer, the color is dark with a light, the point is that there will be no deep dents when you draw wrong. Be sure to go to a professional store to buy it, otherwise it's all fake, and it's fair.

    Coloring part. Small wolf's hair, medium wolf's hair. As for whether you need a large size or not, it depends on how big you usually draw. Actually, gouache is OK too. But personally, I like the trumpet wolf.

    Paint: If you don't paint often, just buy a box of watercolor paints. If you paint very often and use a large amount of pigments, then it is recommended that you buy a can of a color, and you don't need to buy too good, generally a can of 5 yuan is OK (I don't know if there is a price increase now).

    If you are very rich, you can buy special paints for comics, which are quite expensive, ah......

    Hook pen, also called G-pen: used to hook line, generally 2 pen barrels and 5 pen heads into a set, cheap 8 yuan to 15 yuan, expensive, then needless to say, how expensive you want. Supporting also to buy a bottle of black pigment for hooking, must be special for comics, buy the kind that does not melt in water, a cheap bottle of 11 yuan.

    Paper: It is recommended to buy watercolor paper, this ** difference is also very large, gouache paper can also be, but the gouache paper is uneven on one side, and the other side is smooth, just use the smooth side to paint. Forget about ordinary paper, you can't afford to be ravaged.

    If you're using a computer to paint, it's simple, a computer, a PS or painter, and a hand-drawn tablet is done! I've been using Hanwang's creative master 0806+, 1200 yuan.

    The above ** is just for reference, the consumption level is different in different places. And I haven't hand-drawn it in a long time.

    The ** of the hand-drawn comic tool can be based on your actual situation. From tens of dollars to thousands of dollars. And the tools used by different people will be different, but they are nothing more than pencils, erasers, dipping pens, duckbill pens, brushes, needle pens, correction pens, ink, utility knives, rulers, triangular rulers, cloud rulers, drawing paper, etc.

    You don't need to buy too good, the most important thing is to use it easily.

    On the computer, it is recommended that you use the Pentel software, which is a special drawing software, but it is not easy to use. Wacom is good for pen tablets.

    I don't recommend that you buy manga textbooks, that thing will only rigify your approach. It's best to start with the basics of sketching geometric shapes and learn art step by step.

    Manga is a branch of the art of drawing, so the most basic sketching is a must. Any object can be seen as a combination of complex geometric bodies, and if you draw geometry, you can master the most basic essentials of painting - form, that is, as the saying goes, to draw like. At the same time, when drawing geometry, there must be light and shade, so that the most basic color contrast can be mastered.

    If you don't think you're a genius, you can't skip the sketching process anyway.

    You can also consider learning Chinese painting, which pays the most attention to lines, and the comic itself is also evolved from the white drawing of Chinese painting (I also heard of this, I can't find the source), but there is no change in light and shade. Learning Chinese painting is very useful for mastering lines.

    With the foundation of painting, the next thing is the focus of the problem - the plot.

    After all, your ultimate goal is to be a cartoonist, not an illustrator, so the plot is a must. This requires long-term training and accumulation, and it also depends on the individual's comprehension ability, and people who are good at liberal arts have a relative advantage. To know how to arrange the plot, at least the composition must be wonderful, otherwise no matter how beautiful the picture is, the story will be as boring as boiled water, and you will not become famous and become a family.

    On the other hand, there are successful examples, such as Niko Sakubei's "Rantaro").

    Also keep up with the times, understand popular elements and hot topics, which are essential things for comic creation.

    Cartoonists don't just know how to draw, and they need to be cultivated in many aspects. Now you may be dismissive of what I'm saying, but one day you'll find that it's all far more complicated than I said.

Drawing manga is mainly about looking at your own story and style, and it would be best if you could be flexible. For example, if you draw a realistic story, the picture should be more realistic, and the folds and projections are relatively elegant; If the story is more dreamy, the picture can be more ethereal, but it can't be said that it looks strange, and the proportions of the characters' body structure are very strange or something. >>>More
