Here’s how a page gets made 👇
2. My Manga Page Process
Step 1: Super scribbly rough sketch only I can understand

Step 2: Refine the Rough sketch with proper lines. I also use a lot of reference at this phase (ex : the hand)

Step 3: Clean up the line work with Inks

And that’s my process! Hope it’s useful.
