Yes! Precisely like the example you've given. The standard manga style with the big eyes, small noses, wild eye/hair styles/colors, etc., never appealed to me all that much. Ishida does it well, while still keeping it nice and manga-ey. xD It is a difficult style overall, but I want to tell stories with a realistic tone. Even in a world of fiction, I want the reader to become emmersed in the overall realistic tone that the characters and setting with hopefully display.

Good point. I hate stopping to find a specific pencil because momentum is a big thing for me when I'm drawing.

I will if you truly want (hell I could show you one or two now), but I feel like if I'm to be an artist (and one with no assistants at that), then I need to have speed first and foremost. For example. My understanding is that the mangaka does his (45 page) storyboard in about a week. It took me 8 days to do 34. Granted, I have a job and such, but I need speed if I'm to keep up with a schedule.

I'd only want to spend a day on it, and I don't know what to draw. I want it to be original, though. I'm not spot-on with mimicking styles. The best I can do is Kishimoto's.
