FAQ:

Do you take commissions ?

Nope, I really don't have time ! Sorry guys.

What software do you use ?

Mangastudio 4EX for comics and drawing.

Mangastudio 5EX for colors.

I draw on MS4 because it's easier and faster for me. It's just a personal preference.

Where can I get your brushes ?

My brushes are here : http://nesskain.deviantart.com/art/Brushes-for-MS5-388943293

They are the basic one from MS5 but I changed the sensitivity.

Why are you using Mangastudio instead of photoshop ?

Well, mangastudio have features that photoshop doesn't have, and photoshop have features that mangastudio doesn't have.

The things I like about MS might not suit you so I won't tell what are the goods, Just give it a try and see if you like it. But don't expect it to be a better version of photoshop. It can be boring but reading the manual helps figuring out how things work. It took me 7 months to fully swap from Painter to Mangastudio.

Do you do tutorials ?

You can find some step by step in my deviantart's gallery and some youtube's videos here: youtube

Are you the bearded guy that you always paint ?

Nope, I'm asian.

Who is the beard guy you are always drawing then?

Just an original character which the design is inspired from a singer , but I won't tell who, hehe...

Where did you learn to draw ?

I learned and still learn with internet, you can find almost everything.I spent a lot of time on Posemaniac to train my eyes to see fast and be accurate.For perspective, I really like the book from David Chelsea, everything he said is very good

I bought the DVD from Scott Robertson, it's really nice for free hand perspective...

For anatomy I learned from photography, at the time I followed a lot of nude photographers on deviantart and drew every pictures every morning...I also learned a lot from this website: http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~zm5s-nkmr/ , even if it is in japanese I understood a lot of things.

DVDs from Vilppu was helpful too.

And most important, I learned (and still learning) from drawing from life. Trying to draw every situations!

How did you come up with your drawing style ?

We all have a different way to tackle art, so I don't held the "truth". For my part I didn't look for a drawing style at all. All I want is to make my own story. So I look for stories instead, then my drawing trys to fit the story or  the story try to fit the limits of my drawing.Trying to look for a drawing style is a technician's work, I wanted a natural so I let it be as it is.

How much time do you draw ?

I draw 8~18hours a day. the average is 12 hours I think... I can't really say, there are days I don't draw.

Do you use references ?

Yes, I do. When I don't know something I look for it.

What are your inspirations ?

My inspirations are mainly japaneses manga artists, you can find the list here: http://nesskain.deviantart.com/art/Influence-Map-273403109

I don't read a lot of american comics or french comics.
