◆ May 2018 GIGAZINE Manga Awards Top Illustration
In this top picture illustration,YuzuhaI wrote it. I feel the unlimited possibilities of manga that jumps over small frames and spreads out to characters who jump out fun from the hands of a girl who sleeps quickly.


YuzuhaThank you for comment.

Nice to meet you! I will talk about it.
I am honored to be able to publish it as a top illustration of the GIGAZINE Manga Award this time.
I usually work with Twitter and pixiv aiming at a work that makes me stop thinking a bit.
It was exclusively one picture until a while ago, but recently I started challenging manga too. I realize the difficulty and enjoyment of drawing cartoons.
I think that the number of people who want to draw manga and illustrations as much as possible due to this GIGAZINE Manga Awards may increase.


The rough draft part 1 seems to be drawing a picture of a painting by a girl in a sailor suit with a brush on the canvas. The calming atmosphere by the expression of the shadow is impressive.


The rough draft part 2 is one piece that matched the season "June coma prize". The contrast of the shade between bright hydrangea and a monotone girl is beautiful and it is quite lost as an employment candidate.


Rough draft Part 3 is like this. This is a very pretty piece, a character that fly out lively from the girl who fell asleep as he drew a manga, and the expressions of the brightness that was shone on the desk light gleaming also became adopted.


Below is an easy making. Yuzu "The roughness of the first stage, adopting the concept that the characters of the girls' drawn world starts secretly in adventure unexpectedly by her, adopting the concept, the composition, the atmosphere and color, the point of view are decided here I'll leave it. "


Yuzu "Add a little more drawing to the rough, make the color clearer and clarify the image.This is the setting of the night so do not lose it and adjust colors and composition so that you care about the distant impression I will decide the color, this is the most fun. "


Yuzo "I will draw the girl who becomes the leading role for motivation up first"


Yuzu "We will write small items around us, we adjusted the background a little dark in order to make it stand out, and adjusted the color of the light slightly strongly"


Yuzu "I am finishing, I added a monocular fairy to my character who went out of the manga by writing a picture in the back and I got it in a slightly warm color overall while firmly confirming the impression of the distant eyes"
