What annoys me about this topic?Manga and anime both have the same characters. Just one is animated and the other isn't. This is essetially just a character. If you want to call it either, there would have to be more than just a drawing. So technically, it's neither; it's a drawing of an anime, manga character.
The fact that everyone keeps calling it anime, when anime is in fact ANIMATED.
What you're drawing is manga, and since manga actually means "comic" in Japanese, it's not even that. It's more like what many mangas generally look like. But believe me, there is a lot of manga that doesn't look like this at all.
However, manga is a generally accepted term for this "style", so I guess you should call it that. Just please learn to separate manga and anime.
No. There are mangas without animes and vice versa. The one isn't always based on the other. If it's the style you're talking about, then as I've said before, style varies at least as much in anime as it does in western animation.What annoys me about this topic?Manga and anime both have the same characters.

However, for the sake of simplicity, manga is an accepted term for this style.Ok. Let's leave it at that. Though technically it's not either.

Any who can guess what inspired this one? :huh:Final fantasy, though I'm not sure which one. I'm not a big fan of RPGs.

That doesn't really look like manga style at all.... :huh:
Final fantasy, though I'm not sure which one. I'm not a big fan of RPGs.Nope.. but RPG-related, yes
Ok, If you fixed the eyes, took out the nose and made their mouths heaps smaller then this would look really proffesional C)pEhh.. taking out the noses? You've never read Naruto? They've got noses, really. :/
Majority of manga series have similar techniques.That doesn't really look like manga style at all.... :huh:
You know, I'm not sure I get your definition of manga style.
In Japan manga would be anything related to comics, what-so-ever. Even Donald Duck.
In the west we tend to define manga as any comic from Japan.
Defining it like that would mean that if a drawing somehow resembles any Japanese comic, it would be manga style.
The sense of what is manga style would hugely depend on which series a person has read and what style of artwork he/she fancies.
I really don't think we should be arguing about this. It's supposed to be a thread for discussion about Evil's piece (as well as comments on others, if they are posted, I guess. But Evil started the thread)Didriking started it. <_<
And the key word here is majority. Just because it doesn't particularly seem to be stylized towards the mainstream, stereotyped kind of 'manga,' doesn't mean that it can't be called manga in itself. 'Manga' is just the Japanese word for 'comics,' and there is nothing in any definition that specifies how an image must look to be considered manga. It's up to the artist to decide that for themselves.Couldn't have said it better myself C)
LightningEagle, I like yours a lot; there's nothing I can pick out that I really don't like about it. The mood shows that there's a good deal of plot behind the image; is it based on something from Square Enix, maybe?thanks, :) ...sorry, no Square involved either.

Drawing on a computer isn't always easy, how about scanning a hand drawn one?
