Digital painting requires traditional painting skills as digital painting artworks are not premade and they are produced through the paper and pen within the digital painting software. Hence, having a basic grasp of traditional art is key to producing a good digital artwork.
With good foundational skills of line , colouration, tonal, perspectives and imagination in traditional drawing, this would help to give digital painting artworks a more realistic form and present stronger 3D perspective effects – all while increasing your productivity, with the help of the many tools available on the digital drawing softwares!
Exploring the various tools available on the digital softwares
The main idea of drawing is to present an artwork, but manga artwork narrates stories within painting instead of just through plain texts.

From head proportion, facial features, facial and hairstyle, facial emotions, head-body proportion, character body motion etc knowledge, it makes the character. Learn variations of character choices of fashion, clothing’s wrinkle and different fashion style presentations. Learn to present perspectives through different situations and backgrounds; and watch your character come to life as you bring these components together!
