Fun and thought I'd share. It took a while to get down to just these two. They'll ink the test page and I'll have to pick one of them. I think the 2nd one is going to win out, but I hope to have inked and finished pages by the end of the week ^^ Then the whole manga setup will be done and we'll start pumping out pages.

I know you have to pick one but I like them both

Konrad

They are both great but the first one would be my pick.

2

Daniel Glasson

Difficult choice. Both are really good

Not really sure which style I prefer. As much as I like your work, I don't know if I'd buy it, I can't read a lot of Manga. The reversed writing and page style hurts my brain.

Bruce_Sentar

Completely fair. I've been a big manga reader for a long time, so both fulfilling a nerdy dream and I think it might give me a little more reach into a different market.

Eric Bailey

If this is done in Japanese style I won't buy. Please for the love of all that is holy don't have the writing go from right to left...

Bruce_Sentar

I know! Waiting to see how much #1 cleans up here and #2 has much more experience but has a big portfolio of doing romance manga, so there's some concern that it might lean a little off style. We'll see, either way I'm just excited to make a manga.

Bruce_Sentar

Going to take some time, a single artist on the project means like 6-10 months for a volume and it'll take 3 volumes to do a single one of my novels.

Bruce_Sentar

I'm eager to see how that sketch cleans up with the inking.

GhostPhil

It's actually a hard choice. I do like the expression in the first one a lot and I personally would've probably also gone with the first, because I like the the overall style more. But for SSV the second would probably fit better in general. It has a more exaggerated feeling, which fits a super-story.

George

#2 is a bit too cartoonish for my tastes. I think #1 will look way better when its finished.

Bruce_Sentar

#2 probably needs a little work with the eyes. But I'm going to be critical of the inking on both of them.

Bruce_Sentar

I should get them both by the end of the work week. I'll post them when I get them. Let's see how they turn out!

GhostPhil

Yeah I think overall both would fit, but in this stage #2 fits it better, although personally really #1. I think #1 would fit a Fantasy setting better, maybe save the "loosing" one for possible future projects 😊

Christopher Clark

The blue outline one is more of a Japanese style and the one with the word's is more of a Korean style. Personally I like the Japanese style better

Konrad

That’s what it was for me, I couldn’t quite put my finger on it until you mentioned it but yeah two has a bit of a cartoon vibe to it that I feel like clashes with the series a little.

Frank Carr

I prefer the inks and shades of the first one. The second one reminds me of the not-so-well shaded or inked romance manga I don't like. I like atmospheric shading in comics and manga; especially those that have a stronger focus on action and suspense.

Konrad

I think thats probably why I had a hard time with #2 the eye thing really tripped me out, I think it reminded me of the Kure from Kengan Ashura and I didn't like the art for that series. I just feel like the lines and the general art style on #1 is way more my taste.
