@@ddmarkkcan I ask, is art and TH-cam the only thing you do or do you have like a main job for money and this on the side? I was just wondering cos I know it’s not always possible to do just art stuff
I recently started to get out of my false narrative "dreaming of being the greatest mangaka" and I just started to actively work toward this goal. Thanks you for inspiring us all and showing us what can be done with a good amount of efforts and determination.
I feel that I'm sometimes stuck in this false narrative, I know the trick is simply focus on getting into action, but did you change something in your perspective to get it going? Just wondering some tips!
@@alanbasoria5265 In order to get out of this I tooked a pen with a paper and started to write what is my objective in words. It didn't came out in one sentence. I needed to search for this goal through introspection. Try to answer these questions : What keep you comming back to drawing above pure enjoyment ? What was at your mind where you started for the first time to make efforts in this practice ? It can be painful but keep in mind that every mangaka goes to ups and downs once and in a while. I hope this will help you !
Honestly, I just have an idea for a series and having been trying different approaches to flesh out the story ima go the ONE approach and just draw it out as best I can and hire some professional to bring it altogether
THIS CHANNEL IS SO GOOOOOOOD Like wtf? You are doing such an amazing job explaining how to create manga while also explaining how to draw in general! I love it, you sound so pro! Can you do a "how to draw like Hajime Isayama"? I find his style (especially his first chapters) interesting because he kinda sucked at drawing, but at the same time was really good at portraying emotions and facial expressions.
Gotta say this your content inspires me to create and make time for art, I've always loved drawing and kept putting of the creation of a comic I wanna make but after finding your channel, I now have alot of the the planning work done and even the first five storyboards done, so thank you for constantly creating and inspiring everyone! Can't wait to see more from you!
Man whenever i think like giving up, i just watch one of your videos to get inspired. You changed the whole aspect of being a "pro mangaka" for me personally. keep up the good work you don't know how many people you inspire everyday
Ty for your videos man. It's really hard to find motivation when we don't see improvement in our work. Your development is super cool. I started drawing 2 years ago, on my 30, a long last dream. It is way harder than we think. GL on your projects, man!
Thank you bro! your hard work makes me think if I want to be good in just a few months I am the arrogant one. I read manhwa called lookism, it's a published struggle, you can see the big difference from the first chapter to the current chapter. It's insane.
I feel burnout and want to give up from drawing because a few days ago i feels like my drawing not improvement i don't know sometimes i draw anatomy so well and the next day when i want to draw again it's become bad and because of that i feel hopeless but after watching your new video i feel a little bit motivated again thank's dd Mark
I always like to see the first works of famous mangakas because you always can see the evolution and think that he took years and years of grinding. See yours in one video was really cool and a motivation boost for me that are in the early years of learning how to draw.
I appreciate you bro. I've known for a while that the only way I'm gonna get better is grinding it out but constantly get gripped with this anxiety over the fact that whatever I create will look bad at first. I have gone through the learning curve on many things, I'm used to taking something that is sloppy and working with it until it looks good. But art is the one thing I struggle with the most due to the fact that I don't want these ideas that have gestated so long to look like ass, but in the same regard many of these ideas have baked so long I have to get them out. Seeing that you took oneshots and made them into series later actually gives me hope. It gives me hope that even if my babies look amateurish and a bit crap that I can always come hack and give them the glowup they deserve. At this point I have upwards of 20-30 ideas I want to turn into manga. Like ideas that I have done loads of world building and planning for, some individual ideas have notebooks worth of info. I got all the fuel I need to be bettering my craft, I just have to hunker down and grind it out. Usually I have fear over the prospect of the effort I will have to invest. But that has turned to a fire in my chest.
Seeing your evolution in a single video is absolutely incredible, Markk. And I definitely agree that some of your earlier work still holds up, no question. I know people in their late thirties and early forties who have been drawing for decades who don't even have a third of the skill you possessed in your earlier years of making comics. And I think your consistent work ethic catapults you way past a lot of these other artists out here. Keep up the great work, man, because I sure as hell love seeing it.
dude i have no idea what you are doing but when i play a video of yours just from the intro i get so inspired to draw and its so strange i just get the explosive urge to draw man you're truly a blessing to this community thank you
this was very motivating… ive been working on a manga that i’ve had in my head for over a year now but i’m scared to work on that first because of how amazing i know it will be… i draw a lot but not actual manga panels and this made me realize i need to start doing that
Man... DD Markk is such an inspiration.. I really would like to get into manga and comics but I feel so stuck in life right now.. I'm in my third year of collage and I feel like I've wasted so much time.. Sometimes I just wanna drop it all and just focus on drawing
ITS YOUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I RANDOMLY READ RUTHLESS RENDER IN MANG PLUS CREATORS AND FELL IN LOVE ,YOUR ARTSTYLE REMINDS ME OF JUJUTSUKAISEN,CHAINSAWMAN,ALSO BLEACH I AM SUPER HYPED ABOUT THIS MANGA I HOPE YOU RELEASE NEW CHAPTERS SOON!!!!
Thank you for sharing this... My goal is to live in Japan to be a Mangaka for Shounen Jump. I know it's too big of a dream, but this is something I've been dreaming and I know I need to try my hardest in order to achieve that dream.
Man somehow you always hit me where i need. Bc i struggle a lot with lazyness and lack of motivation, so by not improving i felt disheartened, but now i think i can get up again thanks to you haha. I've focused too much on improving that i used all my stamina to finish the marathon and i should have seen it coming. Also bc i hyperfixiate too much, bc once I'm hooked I'll sit on an art pirec for 5 hours straight and that might be a burn out... And lack of sleep. Its 2am rn.
This proves that not everything can be achieved over night and actually needs to be worked on over time. I'm glad to hear that you've only done two years considering how others need more time Also, I've read the "Ruthless Render" manga awhile back and I've only actually found out now that you are the creator. I love the way there's so many references from other manga, but you alter it and creatively make it your own. Hope you achieve your goal, if not higher, and to all other aspiring mangakas as well!!
i saw ruthless render just the other day on tiktok! Whoever posted it said it was a one shot so i was kinda bummed that was it but im so happy to finally find the artist
Ever since I’ve seen anime/manga, I thought it looked cool, and I’ve been working on a story for years now. The thing is I’m absolutely horrendous at drawing, but watching this made me motivate myself to keep trying.
Watching this video while currently working on a big comic project myself, holy did this give me a bit of more motivation. TQ. I wish you luck and also pls wish me luck also.
Bro what the fuck!!! You are the one who created ruthless render?!!!!! Bro it's so good, I like the chainsaw man vibes and its story has a solid plot Huge respect to you man!! Thank you creating it. Do what you are doing, its fucking great. I would love to see the story to it's end.
I think this is what i've been looking for. You know. Maybe i haven't came out from my comftable zone. Always drawing the same poses telling myself is for practice but in the end i learn little. But in this video i can finally star to understand what i need to focus. Thank you DD. thank you soo much
Watching this throughout the video i was like "Yeah i see what he means" every time you mentioned the mistakes, then you showed Ruthless Render and i was blown away. It actually does look like it's own, professional style instead of like, trying to politely imitate a style
WAIT YOU WERE THE MANGAKA OF RUTHLESS RENDER?! I already read it before on Manga Plus and was amazed! I am lucky that I found you on the start page of TH-cam.
Nice vid First time seeing someone who creates manga/ comics and it inspired me even more to create my own comic book. Also the character in the thumbnail looks like the kid from a Cartoon Network show called “ secret Saturday”
In terms, a pro has been making a series for a 4 years. Ruthless render looks great dont get me wrong. You are pretty good not gonna lie. Im also making a manga called dynamo. Keep going though because you will become even better in future.
Like legit I'm a artist and I'm trying to actually pick up motivation to draw again it's been like 10 months since I tried and I've made a whole manga series with these characters who look like they came out a dishwasher and I can't even draw a single page and I'm slowly losing my shit and sanity. Thanks to this guy for saving me from committing defenestration (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
I cant wait untill im as good as you. I've improved a lot of the last year and a half, but im not even close to where your at. I'd be a lot better by now if i was better at focusing.
Ahhh, I really want to become a manga artist so bad but school has got me stuck. I'm not a person who has a sense of responsibility and I lack the balls to say to myself: get up and work! I prefer rest and being comfortable over progression, which is a huge problem because no matter how many videos I watch or no matter how many people give me advice, I can't seem to change that mindset... You give me a lot of motivation, which I'm very thankful for. Also, got a practice question: is it possible to learn 2 things at the same time? Like screentoning and lightning for example. Or learning how to write a manga, but also learning anatomy. Or is it better to go slow and learn one at a time?
Don't know DD's approach to the matter but personally yes. you can learn more than one thing at a time. just as long as they things you can work on together. Right now I am learning anatomy and back grounds. Mainly because that is most important to learn for my current comic. And I am only learning them in the drawing stage. I still have to earn how to color and light them. so break stuff down, take it step by step, but if you have a project to work on as you learn the process will be more fun. Goodluck.
Lets be Honest, "pro Mangaka" is a bit of a stretch lol, but allow the click bait y'all. you guys get the youtube game, you understand HAHA
Yeah dawg we get it
But you are good. Real good
I mean, you do do this for a living, so I’d call you a pro at it.
hey mark, what tools do you use to draw?
I love drawing!
Dd is the most hard working artist I know. This what got him this far, and that’s what’s going to get him to great heights.
AWWWWWWW THANK YOUUUUUUUUU
⁰
I guess he's the ONLY artist you know then 🤡
idk if he works harder than Nikolas Draper Ivey
@@ddmarkkquick question: how exactly step by step do you draw backgrounds as a beginner
Dd has come a long way, and his personally is what keeps me intrigued and always watching. Also his videos are a fucking roller coaster of emotions.
HAHAH TYSM! i love that you feel that way about my videos
Congratulations! I really enjoyed Ruthless Render. I've been working on my own comics and I'm aiming to get better at it.
Thank you!
Getting that first story out is so important. I feel like that lifts the lid off of hidden possibilities. And you did it multiple times. Kudos bro!
Literally a few moments ago, I was losing my shit getting so annoyed practicing perspective and forms but DD once again, came clutch with another great video. Got me pushing though the pain ✌️ DD never change man you really are doing great things
AWWWWWW TYSM! and dayum! perfect timing!
@@ddmarkkcan I ask, is art and TH-cam the only thing you do or do you have like a main job for money and this on the side? I was just wondering cos I know it’s not always possible to do just art stuff
Bro when I saw the thumbnail I had no idea u created RR!! Thats one shot really inspired me man it was so well done good job
gonna use you as my "rivial" to help me keep reaching my goal of making manga, keep up the amazing work, DD!
I recently started to get out of my false narrative "dreaming of being the greatest mangaka" and I just started to actively work toward this goal. Thanks you for inspiring us all and showing us what can be done with a good amount of efforts and determination.

@@alanbasoria5265 In order to get out of this I tooked a pen with a paper and started to write what is my objective in words. It didn't came out in one sentence. I needed to search for this goal through introspection.
Try to answer these questions : What keep you comming back to drawing above pure enjoyment ? What was at your mind where you started for the first time to make efforts in this practice ?
It can be painful but keep in mind that every mangaka goes to ups and downs once and in a while.
I hope this will help you !
Honestly, I just have an idea for a series and having been trying different approaches to flesh out the story ima go the ONE approach and just draw it out as best I can and hire some professional to bring it altogether
bruh ull never be the greatest lol better put that dream down

THIS CHANNEL IS SO GOOOOOOOD
Like wtf? You are doing such an amazing job explaining how to create manga while also explaining how to draw in general!
I love it, you sound so pro!
Can you do a "how to draw like Hajime Isayama"?
I find his style (especially his first chapters) interesting because he kinda sucked at drawing, but at the same time was really good at portraying emotions and facial expressions.
this is a very humble take, earned my respect
Hey it’s that artist from that art street manga contest. Your entry for that contest was pretty cool. I love seeing the journey of each artist.
Dude you are insane...ly good at this you definitely the pro Mangaka

this is actually sick bro. seriously insane work. if you ever make a dystopian scifi manga, blame but urs. that would be insane bro.
Even if not pro you still give me hope, so thank you very much. Your art is amazing and may you have much in your art journey.
Dude I can feel how much you're proud of your newest story, the cover art is liiit 🔥❤️
Man whenever i think like giving up, i just watch one of your videos to get inspired.
You changed the whole aspect of being a "pro mangaka" for me personally.
keep up the good work you don't know how many people you inspire everyday
well color me impressed, this was two years? daaaaaamn
Im happy to see the amount of work put into the ones when you started. I find it remarkable in seeing the gradual growth and progress.
This is the best inspirational video ever
Awesome video! Just started drawing this year and considering trying to make my first one shoit! Great inspo
Inspiring asf! Great video man
Ty for your videos man. It's really hard to find motivation when we don't see improvement in our work. Your development is super cool. I started drawing 2 years ago, on my 30, a long last dream. It is way harder than we think. GL on your projects, man!
Yooo it takes a hefty set to say something as bold as “use me for motivation”. That’s the biggest indicator of your growth, sir. Keep it going.
you are such an inspirational and underrated artist

It's fun looking back at piece you've made years and even months back. Only then you'll appreciate how much you've evolved ;)
inspirational as always
omg I should just start posting manga work online and not worry about if Im good enough to even post any online. Thank you dude!! You inspire me!!
Nice job bruh. The improvements was obvious throughout the projects.
