Using Corel x4 to draw Manga

I am wondering if anyone uses the drawing tools such as brazier tool etc. in CorelDraw to create Manga Art.  I have Corel x3 on my laptop under Vista and I have played around with it a little, but I have a new PC running Windows7 and apparently x3 won't work so I will have to buy x4 full version since my x3 CD was broken.  I hate the steep price, but if it is a viable way to go for drawing Manga I guess I will swallow very hard and do it.  A lot of money for a hobby tho;(

I am not all that good at taking a pencil and drawing, but when I can draw a line in Corel and then adjust it, I do ok...

Any information would be helpful....thank you
