sir I am thinking of participating in Nami concours competition held every 2 years in south Korea it is completely based on children literature, illustrations i have checked your channel can you explain whether drawings in children's picture books have the same process as drawing manga your my only hope sir please explain it in next video sir
I have a request please draw a picture of a high school boy And how to draw a school uniform, how to draw a boy sitting on a chair...... And.. how to draw a boy ......body ....but not muscular type......please draw them 🙏🙏
Since I started to understand the world of publishing, anime, games... art in general, I've always seen that selling the rights to your IP to some company was like making a bet with the devil: there's a small, a lot small chance that everything will turn out as you want and your work will be successful, or they can distort your entire idea overnight, or simply give up investing in it out of nowhere and then it's over. The rights of your story now belong to them and not to you, you can no longer do anything with those characters... I was really touched by your words at the end of the video (the sad One Piece music helped). You were very sincere, mature and realistic here! I want to publish my manga myself to leave a legacy in the world, so that a part of me doesn't die with me. I have always believed that art is the manifestation of our soul! And that we can leave timeless messages through it! I don't want anyone in a suit messing with my characters! Seeing you work hard and do everything yourself inspired me so much! That's what made me see that I was capable of doing this too! I'm happy that my plan has always been exactly what you advised at the end of the video: I plan to post my comic online and let fate decide the rest! You are always so sincere and realistic with your audience and at the same time you never belittle anyone's dream, you always try to encourage us as much as possible! That's what I admire about you Marcel! I hope you never stop being like this! Thank you for the video, may whatever you believe bless you!
That's a lot of yap, but I know through a skim, that whatever you do, as long as you make sure the rights are to you and the credits too, the only thing left is to enjoy the ride buddy.
"I write stories, but I don't know how to grow or where to begin. However, I have an interest in writing, so I continue to write. If you want to collaborate or chat, please let me know."
My suggestion as an artist. Learn anatomy. Start with basic figure drawing too. Theirs tons of videos on people who make videos on that. Set a timer. Start off with 2 minutes and then go up from there. I promise your drawings will improve
Helpful as frick ...one thing I don't really like about my drawing style is a minimalistic cyberpunk style where almost everybody has elaborate clothing ....with too many accessories...but I love it ...worth it
Publishers can be a bit more complicated than you described, especially for comics. It's increasingly common for publishers to let you retain the rights for your work while they just take a percentage of the profits from selling the books. And with indie publishers, they often are less controlling about making changes to your work. It's also possible for a publisher to notice your webcomic and offer to sell physical copies without making any changes. It's rare, but it does happen.
i love you bro. i've always spent my life daydreaming (i have adhd, super adhd, super adhd 2, super adhd 3, super adhd god, super adhd blue.... where was i going with this? oh yeah!) and although it's gotten in the way of so much like school grades and other nonsense, i wanna show the world the creativity in my mind. yeah, i want the money, no i don't find it fun to draw, yes i suck at drawing, but i want this to be a career, i have a long way to go and i may not consistently own this flame in my heart but i know people will enjoy it's spark. all those times i've started an anime and ended up 2 hrs later still on the same episode because i'm pausing to daydream, i want it to not be in vain. you're content is always amusing, always inspirational, and i hope some day i can get... idk perhaps just an autograph. never knew why i'd want an autograph, don't know what i'd do with it... but it'd be an honor. i love you bro, see ya when i'm famous
As someone who both wants to go to MIT, be a mangaka, and has Super ADHD Blue 4 + ultra instinct, this comment resonated with me, see you when IM famous
TYSMM for this video, I was super eager when I saw this video about publishing a book on my 'For you page'. I clicked this video expecting to learn how to publish my book, but the ending really changed my mindset. To those of you watching/reading the comment: PRESS THE FROGGIN' LIKE BUTTON TxT
Being a straight up beginner and wanting to self publish is really difficult, especially when you feel like Amazon and/or Barnes and Noble Press are your only options. Selling at conventions would be cool, but I do agree to start selling at smaller conventions or comic book stores (if they allow it); I know I want to physcially sell, but for now I'm going the webcomic route while I do more research on what publishing route to take. For me, in my area, there is a comic store that supports indie creators; they do a small parking lot kind of option for people to sell their wares. Whenever I get to that point of physically selling my comic, that's my first option because right now I'm hearing too many different things about Amazon. My research continues....good luck to anyone doing the same....you got this 😊
@@C052-ip9zs I know, that's why I'm going to focus on putting my story onto Webtoons and Tapas while still doing research on which publishing path to take; my main focus is to get people to read my story....that's all that matters to me.
One possible route is to have voice actors dub the chapters and uploading them as videos to UA-cam. I know it’s relatively popular for short webcomics such as those by Baalbuddy or Centurii, but I imagine it’s possible for longer works too so long as the video isn’t too long.
Just got you book. I wish I could post a picture. It’s awesome!!!! Dude, it has everything. Thank you so much. It came out really great! Thank you for all the lessons!
Sir, your videos have rekindled my passion for drawing and storytelling. Thank you so much for your recent videos and your amazing catalog of videos. You have an amazing channel, and I look forward to seeing your future successes. Thank you
Some great info here that can carry into ANY creative aspect. I genuinely appreciate how seamlessly you worked the sponsor plug into your video. That in itself is a real talent; there are some really bad ones out there. I didn't even realize it was a plug until you were ready to move on from it!
I made my first coloring book on fantasy creatures and have only sold like 10 copies at best. I am still going to make more because I love drawing and that's just an extra way to share my art with the world. But I really want to make my own drawing book just to scratch it off my to do list. Been wanting to make one for the longest time.
Thanks for always posting great content. I am a complete beginner aspiring to make a manga series and your video’s are making that daunting task so much easier. Thank you.
Mickey (sorry i had to) you're the goat. I've only been watching your videos for a year now but imo my art skill and knowledge has quadrupled. Thank you for your videos. Im getting your english book when it drop fs 🔥
Hey mercel I was wondering I’ve you’d do a sketchbook/art tour I really love the art you make and Id love to see some more of it, and I bet other people feel the same!!
the part about doing the big cons and being overshadowed is spot on, you'll probably do better at smaller cons and at smaller cons the costs (booth, hotels etc) will be much cheaper.
Now a days he is uploading videos very quickly like his last video came out 8 days ago I think the editer he hired for "dlas"channel is also helping him in this channel too well I love his videos ❤❤❤
i think it would be really cool just to make a story and a world that people can read and just enjoy the experience, i want to make something that FEELS good to read. my art isn't nearly as good as it needs to be to do this, but you really have a way of convincing me to learn.
Marcel, you are an excellent teacher, I've learnt many things from you thank you! But you should make more of clothing anatomy, like when enormous wind comes along the character and more about the folds on it. ❤
Hi 👋 Marcel thanks for ur guidance I really appreciate it. And the way u don't reveal ur face I don't care why because I really know that ur here to help and ur helping. Best of luck ❤
I think I'm gonna do both: self publish AND bupblish in a magazine. About the question: "why would u like to make money with it in the first place, aren't u doing it for fun?", making manga is so much fun that I want to make a living out of it. If I can't earn enough money to "pay the rent", it means I'll have to do something else for at least a few hours to get by, I just want to draw manga...
I'm afraid of both sides, publishing a manga that may or may not be accepted but then they make a few changes after all my hard work Self-publishing may sound good in terms of you being the one publishing it and you don't have anyone making changes to you if you publish it, but I'm afraid that no one will buy them
I've always dreaded the idea of a publisher. Giving up my rights to my passion project is something I don't think I could ever do. I'd rather publish my stuff for free online and never make money off of it, than have somebody else butcher my story and then probably drop it. I'd never be able to do anything with it because they STILL hold the rights, even if the story is just rotting in the void. At least I'm bilingual, so I'd be able to translate my own work to English just fine (not my native language). In fact I'll probably write it in English to begin with, because that'll give me a much bigger potential audience right off the bat.
At the end you said that "why do we draw" makes my heart num, i like to draw alot but some times that question comes in my mind and i was like, whyy ??? What drags me to do this? And it kinda stop my mind, my fun, my enjoyment to draw, and i just shut down. My motivation just gone, BUT WHEN SOME ONE ELSE SAID ME TO DRAW SOMETHING I WAS LIKE YAA SURE, THAT IS EHAT I AM MADE FOR!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS FEELING !!! My mind doesn't want to draw for myself but for others its always open 🤯🤯.

@@DBARTBungalow True. but having people who don't genuinely care about your story and want to make big changes can be very frustrating to deal with.
"I write stories, but I don't know how to grow or where to begin. However, I have an interest in writing, so I continue to write. If you want to collaborate or chat, please let me know."
Hey I literally just started to write a story so I’m brand new with the whole thing. Not sure where to go with it but I’m thinking maybe webtoons?
The moment he said
“Well you could always just do it yo-“ *ad for a publisher*
WAIT WHAT. THATS ACTUALLY RIGHT ON 💀
Can't wait for when "How to Hire an Accountant Like a Sir" drops in 2 weeks
it would help tho
This is insane timing I was just trying to look up a video for this
I want to publish my own book but I need to get better at drawing that’s why I watch you. You are my favorite ever
We on the same path bro
Same as you both too
Same

@@thatweirdpersononyoutube835 thx for the advice
Honestly, the best thing to do first is something like webtoon and tapas, that way it’s free and easy to find readers.
Demn, last section make me realise why I want to make my own manga. Thx sir, you reopened my eyes

if you're a beginner I strongly advice not worrying about publishing, and instead getting to a professional level of manga making.

I know this is a weird request but can you send a tutorial on how to draw a sun without a colour, (only pencil)
Mario , we need a full details about power system, character arc and many more
Ty so much sir if it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have been able to continue making books so thanks!!!!😊
The scary part is not knowing whether or not your story is going to make it. 😢
I've always dreaded the idea of a publisher. Giving up my rights to my passion project is something I don't think I could ever do. I'd rather publish my stuff for free online and never make money off of it, than have somebody else butcher my story and then probably drop it. I'd never be able to do anything with it because they STILL hold the rights, even if the story is just rotting in the void.
At least I'm bilingual, so I'd be able to translate my own work to English just fine (not my native language). In fact I'll probably write it in English to begin with, because that'll give me a much bigger potential audience right off the bat.
Can you please make a tutorial on how to draw nature like plants and trees even a short would be fine
It took you less than a week to post im so proud of you micky mouse 😁
At the end you said that "why do we draw" makes my heart num, i like to draw alot but some times that question comes in my mind and i was like, whyy ??? What drags me to do this? And it kinda stop my mind, my fun, my enjoyment to draw, and i just shut down.
My motivation just gone, BUT WHEN SOME ONE ELSE SAID ME TO DRAW SOMETHING I WAS LIKE YAA SURE, THAT IS EHAT I AM MADE FOR!!
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS FEELING !!!
