It keeps amazing me how people who walk barefoot nearly half their life, still seem to be so bad at drawing feet. Everything else is well-drown, but the feet are always terrible. 'Part from that, this is very silly/funny. Especially the 2 mangaka at the start
Thanks {blush} (I did want to write "well-drawn" though, not drown, oops!) But seriously, feet are hard, for someone with plenty talent, but no time nor energy nor the good sense to pay attention to things such as anatomy... Still, how can they not see it? Or the editors?
Those feet, sometimes! ┗( T﹏T )┛Maybe all Japanese mangaka are too busy having sex with each other to do any anatomy practice, like the 2 in the first story? ha ha ha
I'm terrible at drawing hands and I use them everyday. Lol. I wonder if there are any tricks to getting hands and feet right each time. Faces are easy as hell because they are symmetrical and evenly spaced; like the space between your eyes is an eye's width.
Wouldn't sex perfect their knowledge of antonomy? By the third time, you should know your partner's body from head to toe, unless they aren't into that freaky stuff -smirk-
Haha, I hardly think they're paying attention to feet much during sex, more at other body parts... but seriously, you're right about hands & feet. I always say: good drawing isn't in the fingers, it's in the eyes! I mean you have to LOOK at what you want to draw. 1 free trick for you kids: get yourself a big mirror, not to fix your make-up, no, as a help to draw. Put one hand in the position you want, take your pencil in your other and draw what you see in the mirror. Every single detail, y'hear? Don't leave anything out. For feet, you need to put your mirror on the floor like the ones in shoe shops, to see how new shoes fit. You know? Well, do that in your room and start drawing your feet while standing there. Take all sorts of positions and think about how a foot is made. Do it lots of times, and gradually you'll know how to do it without a model.
they sure make you scroll down a lot, those Korean manhwa senseis... I am always attracted by the beauty and the coloring of their drawings, but I never get much further than the 2nd chapter 'cause my finger starts hurting from all the scrolling!
Have you tried the down arrow on your key board instead of the mouse scroll? Google Chrome lets me use that instead. Save your Phalanges.
Manhwa in paper is in the same shape and form as the graphic novels or manga. The reason why this particular type of manhwa seems long is because they aren't exactly manhwa, but webtoons.
Webtoons are typically drawn so that all panels of one entire episode fits on a single page, not broken down into 10-20 separate pages. Check out the following link to see what it looks like: http://comic.naver.com/webtoon/detail.nhn?titleId=662162&no=16&weekday=thu
It seems when the translator group re-worked it to fit the format of manga websites like this, they had to cut up the single page into separate pages, hence resulting in this kind of long, slim format.
It's not the monitor, i think the problem is the platform of this site. Mangago does not support the original length. Webtoons are designed to be smartphone friendly and see one chapter as a whole delivering the comfort of not having to change pages (in the original there are not pages, indeed is shown as a whole one).
May be they cut the toon in pages to make translation easier or because the platform of the sites are designed for mangas (remember mangas do have pages and are book format) and no for webtoons.
If you read the original webtoon before translation,editing process (in the official site), you can see the difference.
Webtoon artists must draw and compilate their work in the suggested work format.
I really feel you, cause its hard to switch pages and scroll!
i think the group that edits and does all the cutting work, try to do their best when they divide the cuts ("cuts" are one square of drawing)
Hope it helps you to understad!

Thanks for the explanations, darlings. I got the lightbulb above my head blinking at the words "smartphone friendly". Aha! Indeed, on a smartphone you rub images down endlessly, not limited by the screen size. Being a mangaka myself, I need a large screen. So I spent my money on that instead of on an expensive 'rubphone'. What's an artist going to do with a screen the size of a postcard? Even laptop screens aren't large enough for my work.
Now that I get the weird manhwa format, I ask myself a new question: aren't there any piles of comic books in Korean bookshops? How boring...
I fell in love with webtoons so much. I even have the "Multi page" box che cked on here because I absolutely HATE having to scroll, click (load page), scroll, click(load page), scroll, (here comes ad and scanlator filler pages) click, click, click (lots of loading).
I get tired of that. I like just scrolling up and down; and I just have to click to load the next chapter. But I like that this website gives me that option
Scroll, scroll, scroll is just as annoying as scroll/click, scroll/click, scroll/click. My cable connection doesn't make me wait to load the pages, but still, it's annoying nonetheless. Let's hope one day computer monitors with swipefunction will be available in large sizes (and small prices). We'll have to rub a lot then, (and wipe our screen a lot, what whith all the greasy fingerprints), but at least we won't get Repetitive Movement Injury in our index from all that scrolling!
Until then, I'll stick to Japanese manga. It's true the Koreans make beautiful pictures, but it's just not worth it.
Are skincolors all you guys can see in this manga? You're all soooo color-obsessed, it's ridiculous. Can't you see this artist is only paying attention to the girls and just makes rough sketches of the guys, because she's telling what she feels, her own experiences? Who cares about the color of that roughly sketcched thing? it's about HER, and her own first long ago love experiences; she's all pink, cause they're romantic memories. You guys know nothing of art? You're taking it all so literal! You act like it's real life, well, it's not! It's ART!











Silly/funny. A teabag in the shape of a girl. What WILL they come up with next? Still, it would take a genius like Teruo Kakuta to make this REALLY cute and sexy.
