Screentones are pre-printed or digital patterns used to create shading, textures, and effects. Traditionally, they were adhesive sheets applied to the paper. Digitally, they are applied within drawing software. They come in various patterns (dots, crosshatching, etc.) and are crucial for adding depth and visual interest to your manga.
