A couple of suggestions.

This site: Fantasy name generators. Names for all your fantasy characters. 

Or, take an ancient or fairly unknown/unused language and find the words that mean what you are doing. Like for emotions, find a word that means moving and feeling, and put that together some how. Since they all have the commonality of moving…[Read more]

@dekreel No idea. 😉

@rochellaine Yes! 😀  Thanks for finally answering it! 🙂 And no idea. 😉

@emily-d Interesting. Is her story idea absolutely unsalvageable? No redeeming qualities? Because I can imagine it would be hard to create characters for a story, and then scrap the story, and try and find a new setting for the characters. :

@seek justice Well, more correctly a horse bolted on me and threw me, and I broke my wrist but basically, yeah.

Yikes.

Uh, no. I was having a lesson. It was quite unexpected – the horse I was on was about 14 and usually very placid.

@seekjustice

(basically sitting around waiting for someone to fall off a horse and break an arm)

*blinks*

Um… That happened to me. XD

@dekreel Awe, those are great! 😀

@catwing Future.

@notawriter That sounds cool. I should try that sometime too. 🙂

@warrenluther04 Always interested to see. 😀
Posting pictures is a big complex. Bluejay’s instructions are very clear here: https://kingdompen.org/forums/topic/inserting-pictures/

@dekreel Ahhh! The struggles! They’re real! XD

@dekreel Yass! I try to keep the head the same size that I started with (and if I did that and made the body in proportion, they wouldn’t be so small!!!), but sometimes it’s just going to be too big, and I don’t want to do it chibi. 😛

@dekreel No, I mean if I have to re-draw the head (because the neck is “attached” to the body), sometimes I don’t draw it on in the right place and it’s not centred or something.

Oh, that’s some really good advice. 😀 I should do more eye practise. My other problem is I make my drawings so small, it’s often hard to do details like that.

@dekreel Probably. I’d just move the face though, if everything else about the head is all right. Oftentimes the neck doesn’t like up right on the head. XD I’m also not very good at profiles, though I’m working on that, and I don’t think my characters are as expressive as they could be. 😛

@dekreel Oh yeah, I usually do the head first too, to get a general idea of the size, but because my proportions are usually off, the head size usually ends up changing.

@sarah-anson That is how I’d like to draw my manga. How do you do that?? 😀

@aviantrail Hm… Ick… Maybe porridge…

@that_writer_girl_99 Wash pets

@notawriter Lose memory

@naomijackson He already has superpowers, and so do his closest friends (except one), so… 😉

@skredder Glass door. That sounds like something he’d do anyway. XD

@daughteroftheking 7 1/2 feet tall.

@dekreel Song they hate for three days.

These are all really great, guys!

I have a question for everyone in general. When you draw your manga characters, what is your process?

I typically draw a “dummy,” basically a form that looks like a naked mannequin (with no detail, just the body shape) in the pose I want, then I add the clothes over that, which I find helps let the “fabric” fall…[Read more]

@dekreel Probably a small crime.

@daeus XD

Hm… Maybe a cloud kingdom. With caves. 😉

@dekreel *grins widely* Thanks. Which is your favourite? 😀
