I'm thinking of making a comic book called The Artbook Manga and it is alot of work I try to draw when I don't feel like to then when I don't feel to draw it looks horendous! I have trouble doing positions like walking. Can u give me advice if u wonder when it will come out somewhere in the spring or summer. If it gets popular I would have more than one chapter in one book.

Well for your problem with walking,
I'd say practice practice and references :P.

seriously observe how people walk in realife.
You might also want to have some sort of puppet that has bendable arms, legs to put in a pose and then use this as a reference for your scene.

Many old (and new) school artists used to go out in the street and sketch people walking along or interacting with others. Might be something worth trying? More recently I've been making use of a digital camera to get my poses right- work for me
