Creating a manga is no small feat. Whether you’ve got a hero already talking in your head or just a spark of an idea waiting to ignite, the process from imagination to ink can feel overwhelming. That’s where the 8 Pages of Sketchbooking come in—a structured yet creative framework to help you turn your big idea into a real-deal manga project.
At Sketch Book Artists, we believe that every story deserves to be told—and told well. These eight pages aren’t just literal pages in a sketchbook, they’re stages of discovery, designed to guide you through the creative journey of manga-making, one thoughtful step at a time.
Over the next several weeks, we’ll break down each page—one post at a time—so you can follow along, sketch your way through each phase, and maybe even kick off your own comic project by the end.
For today, take a look at the image of the Circle Of Pages. In fact, feel free to share your own sketches of what each Page might better be visually represented for you!
