Description Trying out Manga studio 5 for color.
Took a little longer than normal, but after a few runs, I think I can get back to photoshop speed.

Looks great Fred, I am not sure which song is appropriate here. Frank Sinatra's "Fly me to the moon" or The USAF Hymm "Off we go into the wild blue yonder" lol. Did Penny get another new 'do? or is it juz me?

cool, oh Fred have you ever heard the "Marvel bullpen" record from the very old Merry Marvel Marching Society? There is an exchange between Stan lee and Jack Kirby about Sue Storms hair, that kinda reminds me about Miss Pincer.

i was trying photoshop for my work but it seem its more complicated then it should be liked painttool sia how do you like manga studios, didnt get it because to many ppl complained it crashed a lot, photoshop is doing that for me not a lot but it does lag pretty bad doesn't want to keep up with my brushstrokes

Are you using anti aliasing on your inks in MS5? The lines look quite a bit smoother than the ones I get in MS4, and I know they added a lot more functionality for Anti aliasing in this version.

FredGDPerry In reply to Ability-Normal [2013-07-30 00:41:31 +0000 UTC]

the lines feel MUCH smoother.

I don't have the EX version, though. Just the normal one.

Ability-Normal In reply to FredGDPerry [2013-07-30 01:52:13 +0000 UTC]

That was a very peculiar aspect of the older programs. The inking engine feels so smooth and accurate, but it had those chunky lines. Even with anti-aliasing on there was a lot of jaggies. Glad to see the improvement. I was waiting on the EX version of 5, which I guess, just came out recently. Now I really look forward to when I can afford it.

manga studio proving superior to photoshop Fred?

FredGDPerry In reply to Enka2040 [2013-07-30 00:42:33 +0000 UTC]

not better yet. It handles really nice!

But I don't know enough about it to give a final judgement.

If you get a chance, I'd love to hear some feedback once you've played with it a bit more.

Is it just me or does Ace and Anton look alike theses days?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

FredGDPerry In reply to partz7 [2013-07-29 06:16:21 +0000 UTC]

Anton is much taller and is suppose to have a stronger jaw line. Carries himself like Egon from ghostbusters.

Ace is suppose to look more cocky and confident.


I suppose I never put them together so I could show off the difference.

partz7 In reply to FredGDPerry [2013-07-29 13:38:41 +0000 UTC]

your probably right I have not seen the two drawn in the same panel so it most likely a little preemptive of me to compare. It just that since Antons lost the muscles and went from bald to short hair, I couldn't help but think that he looked like Ace in a lab coat
