Artist's Comments

Angels Among Us.
Let the story begin. Let the glory be God's.

EDIT: This is the REVISED version of the cover. For artist comment, look here : [link] The original cover, described below, is no longer available.

Also, be warned that the first chapter and half of this manga is hand shaded; however higher quality inking begins in later pages. Major style changes were also made in the third chapter. Chapters one and two will be completely re-done, and chapter three will be edited as necessary.

Well, I'm assuming by now that most of you know that I wanna be a manga-ka (though I highly doubt I'm skilled enough for it). I like to write a lot, both original and fanfiction, and I draw a lot...problem is, it's mostly fanart. Now, I've finally made myself work on an original manga of my own, and I think I've got a decent idea for one. Angels Among Us (if you can't read the text at the foot of the page, it says "FIND YOUR INNER STRENGTH")

This is Rin, one of the three main characters of AAU (Angels Among Us). She's kinda that quiet kind who has an inner strength that very few can really see. She's not gothic or emo, I promise, she just wears a lotta black, kinda like Cloud Strife or Tifa Lockhart. A lot of the characters in AAU wear black, for no particular reason (I just like coloring black stuff for things like this :shrug: ). I'm considering changing her hair color, though, just cause it looks too dark overall.

If I ever get around to working on the series (I started it today), it'll be in traditional manga format, right to left. I'll try to post a few pages at a time, cause there won't be a lot of images per page and you won't get much info if I just post it a page at a time.

Well...in the words of Forrest Gump: "That's all I have to say about that". :D

We are all made to love everything and everyone on this Planet. We can not hate a person for who or what they are. We just do not approve of what they do and say, but do not hate them for it.

Very nice.
It's a challenge to work on your own characters.
It's great to hear that your working on your own Manga. I've got my own little such project brewing...though very slowly.

There are three things that I'm afraid of in this world.
Losing those I care about.
Losing my money or material posessions.
And Jet's eyebrows.

Now that I've got a basic storyline down, I'm trying to make myself do a page a day (provided the page doesn't have something extremely challenging on it). I'm getting ready to post the first few.

That's awesome. I still have a bit of development before any pages will be produced.

I've been trying forever to come up with a good idea for various reasons, and this just hit me one day, like I'd been having a major block or something. Now it's just all falling in place really fast, and I wish I could draw faster!!!

For a long time that gave me trouble. Not so much coming up with characters, but being able to give them a good anime/manga look really messed with me. I was terrible at character design.
