Hand-drawn anime with what pen

Before creating a manga, you should first understand the basic tools necessary to create a manga. Due to the variety of styles of comics, drawing tools used to a variety of tools, we introduced here are just a few of the more commonly used basic drawing tools. Drawing comics, in addition to the often used pencil, eraser, but also need some specialized tools. For example, the original paper, dot paper, ruler, scraper, copy desk and so on. Here is a detailed introduction to these tools:

Pencil:

Mainly used for sketching, generally better with automatic pencils, according to personal habits of different hardness of the refill, you can also use wooden pencils, such as "China" brand, generally more than HB or hard H pen can be used.

Eraser:

Used to erase pencil lines or special effects on dot paper. Be sure to use a drawing eraser that does not easily wrinkle and feather the paper.

Ruler:

There are three kinds of rulers needed when drawing comics: straightedge, triangle, cloud-shaped ruler. The straightedge is used the most, generally for drawing compartmentalized boxes and pulling straight lines, followed by the triangle ruler, with which parallel lines and right-angled edges are drawn, and the cloud-shaped ruler is used to draw curves. Care should be taken not to buy a ruler with right-angled edges, but preferably one with a beveled edge.

Ink:

Where it is necessary to blacken all, it is better to use ink than black ink. When blackening, start from the outside and carefully outline along the outline lines of the drawing, being careful not to go out of bounds, and then later saturate the pen with ink and paint the center portion all over.

Duckbill Pen:

Used to draw straight lines in the inked manuscript, the straight lines drawn are neatly edged and of the same thickness. In use, the "duckbill pen" should not be directly dipped in ink, but should be used with a dip pen or brush dipped in ink, from the duckbill pen into the crevice of the use of drops, by adjusting the screw on the front end of the pen to determine the thickness of the line drawn. When drawing a straight line, the barrel of the pen is perpendicular to the surface of the paper, and even force is applied to pull the line horizontally, and the speed should not be too fast, so as to draw an even straight line.

Mac pen:

Commonly used to draw large areas of black or do special effects, can also be used to draw fine lines. Sometimes, you can also use the colored mike pen for color, and the traditional style of color is different, more avant-garde, the effect is like an effect, there are obvious brush strokes, beginners are not easy to draw well. Mac pen divided into oil-based, water-based two kinds.

Black ink:

Drawing lines with black ink is very good, and ink compared to dry quickly, and after drying is not easy to be dissolved by the water fainting. In addition, can also be used to black advertising color to black, the advantage is that the black advertising color will not be reflective, there is a sense of black, easy to computer scanning, do not mix too much or too little water when using.

Correction of white (white color):

Used to modify the painting of the wrong, dirty part of the white can make the picture gorgeous, rich in change, commonly used is the white color of advertising pigments. When using should pay attention to adjust the concentration, different concentration, will produce different effects, in the dot paper painting white or painting small white dots should be dipped full of relatively thick white color. In addition, hair, eyes, clothing folds of the highlights painted on a little light white can reflect its texture, three-dimensional, the picture is more layered, beautiful, and hand-drawn on the fly white lines, there is a feeling of light, play a "finishing touch" role.

Draft paper:

Used to draw the draft. The requirements of the paper should be no matter how many times the repeated drawing, rubbing how many times, are not hairy, not broken, with a dip pen to draw the line will not be haloed, it is best to choose a high degree of cotton and the surface of the smooth manuscript paper. Generally speaking, professional cartoonists commonly used paper is: cartoon special drawing paper or drawing paper, watercolor paper, white cardboard and so on.

Dot paper:

Used for gray tones or other special effects. Dot paper patterns are many, the most commonly used is the "gray network", "gradient network", there are some "environmental network" and "pattern network "can be used in conjunction. The type of dot paper is divided into two kinds of paper mesh and glue mesh.

The art knife, pen knife and pressure net knife:

Often used to do scraping and cutting net, art knife is generally used to cut the net, while the pen knife is generally used to do the scraping, skillful use of the pen knife, the production of comics is very important. In addition, because of the viscosity of the dot paper is limited, so we also need to use the netting knife, the dot paper will be firmly pasted on the manuscript paper, if there is no netting knife can also be used instead of fingernail.

Brush:

Both on a large area of color, but also can be dipped in white color to repair the drawing. But the brushes for drawing white must be used separately from other brushes, and the used brushes must be washed.

Drawing pen:

Drawing pen is a very thin pen, often used to draw borders and uniform lines. The thickness of the drawing pen from 0.1mm to 2mm, but the common size is 0.6mm to 0.8mm drawing pen. Because of the uniform thickness of the tip of the drawing pen, the line drawn does not have a sharp edge, so it is not advisable to use it more often. Because the drawing pen nib is very thin, the ink is very easy to block the nib after drying, so, after not using the pen should be promptly covered with a cap, if the use of ink, you can flick up and down, or the nib of the pen dipped in water, really can not be placed in water to soak.

Dipping pen:

Used to ink the line, but more types of dip pens, the nib of the thickness and shape of the different, we can draw according to the content of the different selection of different thickness of the dip pen. G nib is very strong elasticity, according to the size of the force and the drawing of different thicknesses of the line, especially the drawing of the thicker line is more rounded, the most suitable for drawing the contour line. The round nib is suitable for drawing very fine lines, but it can also draw thicker lines with the same amount of force as the G nib, which makes it easy to change. Overall it is thinner than the G nib, so some people only use it for details or backgrounds.

Sticks:

These are used to insert the nib. There are two types of nibs: general nibs (for G pens, dysprosium pens, student pens, etc.) and round nibs (for round pens only, with a very small connector).

Nibs:

Mainly include the following types:

G pen: flexible, line thickness varies greatly, can draw a sense of rhythmic lines, usually used to draw the main line of the character.

Student pen: small elasticity, thin lines and basically no change in thickness, mostly used to draw the background and effect line.

Dysprosium pen: elasticity than the G pen, round pen, line changes in the medium, often used to draw the texture of the fabric. It is also commonly used for drawing effect lines because it is not easy to hang paper.

Round pen: elasticity, line changes, because the line is very thin, often used for fine portrayal, such as the character's eyes, blonde hair gloss performance.

Watercolor:

Divided into transparent watercolor and opaque watercolor.

Acrylic paint:

That is, acrylic paint. At the same time has the characteristics of watercolor and oil painting two kinds of pigments, can be used directly, can also add water and mixing like watercolor use, but also can be mixed with some auxiliary agents coated with a thick layer, creating an oil painting-like effect. Acrylic pigment air-drying speed is very fast, and after drying with water resistance, strong adhesion, toughness and other characteristics, so not only in the paper, but also in the cloth, wood, stone, glass, metal and other materials on the use of a variety of materials.

Colored pencils:

The use of the same method and pencils, thin lines, more for the fine detail of the depiction and correction. Divided into water-based colored pencils that can be dissolved in water and can be dissolved in oil solvent oil-based colored pencils.

Color ink:

Colors are very bright, need to add water to mix, especially suitable for mixing and repeat color. There are two types: quick-drying and water-resistant. Water-resistant color ink cannot be dissolved after drying.

Pastels:

Colors can be applied directly to the stick pigment, can also be chipped into powder use. According to the different hardness is divided into two kinds of soft pastels and hard pastels. Pastels are easy to fall off, and need to be sprayed with protective adhesive to fix them after coloring.

Color dot paper:

Colorful, when a certain area of the manuscript needs a uniform tone of color, you can use color dot paper. Although it lacks the rendering and blending effects created by watercolors, colored pencils, and other paints, the finished drawing will be as pleasing to the eye as the original color celluloid painting.

Airbrush:

A combination of a compression motor and a hand-held nozzle can spray paint evenly in a mist, and can be used with watercolors, acrylics, and colored inks. The more common practice is to connect the nozzle directly to the compressed air cylinder, which is not only easy to use and ideal for painting, but also cheaper in terms of cost.

Automatic eliminator:

Built-in high-performance micro-motor, through a series of mechanical structure to produce high-frequency vibration, can be a small place in the error is very clean erase. An automatic eliminator can be configured with a number of different able to use the rubber plug, according to the modification of the flexible use. Generally, it will be equipped with two button batteries and one each of rubber white, sand and yellow.

Model dolls:

Simulation of the human body structure and joints of the doll, by moving the doll to the head, waist, hands, feet and other parts of the doll, you can pose a variety of different poses. By referring to the doll when drawing, you can easily grasp various human body postures such as looking down and up. The model dolls are about 31cm tall and are divided into two types: male and female dolls, with slight differences in the length and size of the arms and legs, and the position of the waist.

Copy table:

Because the dot paper is divided into paper mesh and glue mesh, especially the transparency of the paper mesh is low, so we need to use the copy table to increase the transparency of the mesh, so that the mesh can be cut and pasted accurately.

Drawing tool tips:

In the dip pen, duckbill pen or drawing pen and other pens with ink, and the ruler combination of drawing lines, the ruler should be slanting down the use of (if the ruler tool does not have a tilted surface, you can "coins" and other thin things pasted on the bottom of the ruler). When using a ruler, do not over-saturate the tip of the pen with ink, so that the ink does not leak out of the ruler-pen joint and bleed out of the line, which may stain the drawing.

When a drawing is smudged, it can be repaired with correction white. When using correction white, be careful to add as little water as possible, and wait until the first covered paint is completely dry before covering it again, and to avoid the correction white piling up too thickly, which will affect the effect of the picture.

If you can't repair the drawing by painting, you can cut a piece of paper a little bigger than the picture to be repaired, stick it on the top with glue, and redraw the repaired part. Or in the drawing of the following pad a clean paper, and then need to modify the part of the knife carving, so that you can get a piece of paper with the same shape as the modified part of the piece of paper, and then like a jigsaw puzzle as the carved piece of paper embedded in the drawing of the drawing of the back of a slightly larger and thinner paper to stick firmly, and then redrawing the carved part of it.

When scraping the mesh, don't use too much force so as not to cut the mesh and the table. When you need to scrape out some straight line effect, you can use a straightedge, but put the blade flat to avoid scratching the ruler. When you use the knife, you can also prepare a rubber mat to cushion it, or you can do this work on the glass of the copy table.

When you need to "paste the net, do stacked net" effect, you can use the copy table. Note that in the use of the copy desk, you can choose "frosted" glass as a translucent plate, copy the light source of the desk can choose fluorescent lamps, try not to use incandescent lamps.
