I’ll be sharing my experiences working on my first ever Manga chapter for my comic ‘Project: Contract’ that I made exclusively for the Pixiv x CSP Global Comic Contest 2024.

Maybe you’ve been thinking about starting a Manga but you’re not sure what to expect or whether you should even try. I’m here to tell you, YES, just do it.

I definitely didn’t cover it all, but I’ve tried to think of all the things I’ve discovered in the process. So, this video just goes over some practical and psychological tips for budding comic creators.
