When I started my comic, I decided that I would try to make my site useful to other artists as well... that whole 'community' idea. :wink: So I decided to offer tutorials based on my own learning and skills, and just put up the first one: http://www.firefliesofwinter.com/hands.html It has a list of ...

Hi! I'll be happy to give you a pie-less, objective answer from a fellow woman who loves anime and manga. I'm with one of the other posters: it could go one way and be really cool, or it could go another way and fall into a cliche trap. As an editor in my last three jobs(let's hear it for layoffs) I...

Hello all, When I was on here my first time(and now am back again after settling down in a new country), I noticed some people would list 'manga/anime style' as reasons to NOT read a comic. Being a fan of them and working on a 'serious' one myself here at Keenspace, I'm curious as to why some people...
