Regarding programming... I think my manga may (in some ways) be more like programming than conventional art, because I produce it with 3d software. (And yes, I am hoping to finish another chapter or so this summer.) I have a gallery here at MR that has the pages that are done up to this point, if anyone's curious. And definitely more in the programming direction would be my latest project, which involved "remapping" a 3d model to be able to use textures created for an older model. |
Yes styrofoam is annoying to work with without a proper environment. Surprisingly, a mask is not necessary because the ground fibers are quite big. What is necessary is a set of airtight goggles because the particles scratch the eyes and are not easily flushed, they tend to stay, very irritating in both senses. The moment where you're mostly at risk of getting some is when removing the goggles, if you still have foam on your hands or sleeves.
3d manga, very interesting! Does your software allow good facial expression? I saw a couple of inset background photography layers, that also is interesting. Was B&W a choice?
