Paneling is a part of Graphic design. O_- It's an art in itself, think of how you would do a collage and put together a puzzle, that's how paneling works.

You must understand the basic 2D design element:
movement, center of interest, value contrast, volume, size, perspective.... so on and on....

As for paneling.... there is no set way to do it, whether drawing the picture first, or draw the panel's first, or draw the panels and the pictures back and forth.... it's all upto the artist, as long as the result is satisfying to the artist. Just experiement and find the best way that suits you.

A Serial Story is Not a chopped-up Novel!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hear it time and time again: "If the story is too big, why don't you just cut it up into a Series or Serial?"

You can't just cut a novel-type Story in half to make a series, or use the chapters to serialize it. A true serial "episode" is its own Comple

Sorry, the back button didn't work... so I took it off, I will try to make it work next time.

This tutorial is not a step by step, rather it's one that tries to convey a concept of how to arrange movement on a page for manga reading.

Currently, the tutorial is not completed, it's a work in progress, suggestions and ideas on what you wish to see covered are welcomed.

This tutorial is sponsored by:

(If she didn't sponsor the tutorial making, you would get at most about 3 pages of content, so go thank her~!) XD

This is very useful! There is a lot of really good information, especially for someone like me whose knowledge on paneling is limited to "Don't use too many weird shapes and don't mix up word balloons" ^^

Thank you SOOO MUCH for making this! Every time I try to search up 'how to pannel mangas' they usually only do super mega haxor l33t pro of DEATHCORE METAL skill, and it kills me because I know I'm pretty bad at panneling, but this is really useful because it covers both the simplistics and mediates of the panels!
I also love how it gives tips for the user of this themselves to get into the pro stuff on their own, forcing unique creativity XD
I'ma probby go through a lot of my old sheets and try to figure out how to redraw them better, but this was absolutely awesome with how useful it was!
