hi...i'm new here. i enjoy reading your post....ganahan ko makat-on magdrawing...asa ta eskwela ana?? cebu lang.kanang murag anime... tiguwang na ko gamay... is it too late? pila gastos? walay free?

bai,

self study would be the way to go. unless you have moolah to spend for a correspondence school. http://www.kubertsworld.com/index.asp

but you can hang around anime forums or comics forums and still get pointers and stuff from fellow members.

Hi MrBiddle,

I guess he's not really a teacher, isn't he? A teacher should inspire
students to greatness. In fact, a teacher should want his students to
surpass him in his mastery of the art.

Take for example, Whilce Portacio. He taught many Filipinos how to
draw and in my opinion, some of his students' works surpass his.

But is he complaining? Is he asking to be repaid? No, I think Whilce is
happy that he has bought Pinoy talent to the US and now they're
being appreciated there more than they are here.

Naa kaha Cebuano equivalent ni Whilce?

Hi guys,

Sorry for the late reply. Before, I answer I want you all to know that I'm not
a professional artist. I start and stop, start again and stop again learning to
draw. However, self-studying is a drag because art is learned via examples first
before one can define their unique style.

My answers:

1) Hmm what genre of comicbooks are you into anyway?

I like two genres. Erotic and cartoon. For erotic art, I hope to someday (kung
di pa ko mamatay before then) to learn how to draw like Manara or better,
Serpieri. I also like Horacio Altuna.

For cartoon art, I like Caldwell's http://www.daredetectives.com/. I own
his Action! Cartooning book and I look forward to buying his Fantasy
Cartooning.

Frustrated fine artist man gud ko. Gi-discourage ko sa akong erpats kuha
Fine Arts kay wa kuno wawarts ani na field. So nag-comp-sci na lang ko.
Kung makadaug ko lotto, undang man ko trabaho ba then balik eskwela
Fine Arts. If I only could turn back the time, ...

2) . asa ta eskwela ana drawing comics

SuKoLmo teaches manga style drawing for free. I'm not sure if they still
have sessions in Mango Square Mall though. Visit Tyke's comic book store
and ask.

Ang initial style sa SuKolMo murag Jedi. Naa usa ka master, naa usa ka
apprentice. And the good thing about it is that the master doesn't charge
a fee. They do it for the love of the art. Mag-sinabot lang sa oras ug adlaw
magkita.

3) organize ug bag-o club, bai. join ko... http://zerk.deviantart.com/gallery/

Bai, I don't think you need to learn. You need to teach

Plus, you could submit your portfolio to www.glasshousegraphics.com bai.

While I'm a good manager, I'm not artistically skilled. So kung organization
inyo gusto pwede ko katabang ani. Pero the actual course outline should be
defined by the talented artists here (i.e. contour drawing, negative space,
form, rhythm, tonal value, perspective, anatomy, etc.)

I also think we should at least pay the instructor his or her due. I mean
kung 10 ta kabuok, then pitch in ta 50, then naa siya 500 bucks per
session. Unless ganahan dyud siya teach for free.

--- side note ---

By the way, sa Buy and Sell section I'm selling some art books at discounted prices. Kung musugot mo, ako i-copy there. Huwat lang ko tubag senior member like Senor Joze. I think this is better than buying
new books at National. I also take very good care of my books. You
can ask Messenger, the person who bought my Flash books re the
condition of my books
