Description
A time of rest between ventures for my heroin Silvia Robin, then aged 26. This drawing was included in a test of e-Frontier's Manga Studio EX that is published in the French monthly paper Creation Numerique dated September 2006. It has been entirely made in Manga Studio 3 EX including colour, and most without a graphic tablet (hence some small mistakes in the body curves). All the digital inking was vectorial one. Many thanks to Daryl Wise and Fahil Niaz for the copy of this marvelous inking tool that Manga Studio EX is!

most excellent !!!
not bad! good linework
A reply to Miss Nancy: What is important to see is that inking of this picture was NOT made with a graphic tablet but with the MOUSE and even some parts with my PowerBook's TRACKBALL. Therefore inking is by far not so good as is my next download "Silvia springing" to come, which was inked entirely with a screen tablet (LS-400 Wacom, ancestor of the today Cintiq). Also, colour is'nt the strongest point of Manga Studio, but this image proves that it's possible to do a professional one anyway. I apologize to Mr Niaz of e-Frontier, whose first name is Fahim and not Fahil, sorry
Quite a wonderful image made with MS and color too! I am so happy to see you posting on rendo finaly, and with our dear friend Silvia.
We spend much time filled with wonder us ~~ Your luminous colors sound a wonder for our eyes ~~ Splendid image ~~ You will find its feelings on my last image ~~ Good day and has soon ~~*****~~()~~ Thanks
To Morin3000: thanks for all these kind comments Seen that you are a top-level photographer! I must recognize that I have somewhat adjusted the colours (adjustement layers) in Photoshop: MS is fundamentally a BW app, perfect for inking especially the EX which has vector functions (and MS is, I think, absolutely necessary for most of comic artists since good inking tools and premier quality paper are becoming more and more difficult to find). Sure that Miss Nancy is right about that. But, for colour Hmm And it seems that even the ICC profiles are'nt supported by MS Let me admit that this post and next one "Silvia springing" are rather experimental pictures. Maybe I shall do other MS colour picts (see my very complete test at http://formations.elcet.net). Therefore, sincerely for colour, jump either to Photoshop or Painter, eventually Corel Photo-Paint. Compare also with Illustrator colours in my later posts: much brighter, much better saturation. But again! Illustrator is a fantastic vectorial software, however inking directly into Illustrator is a true headache, its so-called Pen tool is incredibly slow (and we professionals are so little paid), and Pencil or Brush lack precision Notice that I did hand inkings (India ink) for hundreds of comic pictures, then I jumped into Adobe Streamline or Freesoft Silhouette for vectorization (sometimes now into Illustrator CS2: see "An UFO in the Sahara", sometimes still Silhouette). If this peculiar process of picture making interests you, see my later posts where I shall come back to the topic of vector drawing.
Its about time you started posting! I realy like the illustratio style that you use...almost Warhol looking which is a good thing. RandC
It is a very beautiful and remarkable work of art!
Nice. I really feel the need of trying Manga Studio now, and it's all your fault! lol!.
Fantastic art work. Excellent character and style.
Je cherchais le début de ta série sur Sylvia. Il a fallu remonter loin! Joli travail, surtout pour une image réalisée sans tablette graphique. Chapeau!
