I just want to learn how to draw manga, and all the guides I read say that the best way to learn how to draw manga is to draw manga, so I did. It is kinda ugly because I don't know what I'm doing, and I was rushing, and I still can't control the dip pen well, and so on. I knew I'm going to mess up lots, but all and all, I think it is decent for the first "finished" comic. I hope I'll redraw it one day.

@nina_kali_nina@tech.lgbt When it comes to art, any art, practice gives results. I am a musician, and not playing my bass for 3 years now, I feel like I don't know how to play. I also am good at 3D modelling but more on the technical side (lighting, materials and such in Blender). I bought a Wacom tablet and tried to get into drawing (my mother is extremely talented in both drawing and painting), and following a tutorial to just get a feel for it, I drew a face. Of a very creepy baby. Which I deleted immediately. While I don't have the time to do art (which I wish I had), I know that I can get better. So can you. Just keep drawing. You know it'll get better.
