Encouragement for Amateurs
Hey, guys! I'm quite the amateur artist, so I know that it can be really tough... A lot of people in my life don't understand the point of it—comics don't pay, so why bother? A lot of Christians think it's worthless—something secular can't speak into the lives of anyone. And as an amateur, I am constantly told by others and by my own fears and doubts that maybe I'm just not good enough to do this... To do this art thing, nonetheless to do it for the King of kings.

Hi everyone. Right now, I'm looking for an artist, specifically, a penciler at the moment. I'm doing a superhero genre for my comic-book idea. If anyone is interested, they can e-mail me some samples of artwork for me to look at. Email me any questions.

To anybody that whats some tips in drawing, Stan Lee's Hot To Draw comics is a really good book to own! Its a good book for helping in Costumes, Penciling, Inking and coloring. Lettering and Word Balloons. Digital Advances. Perspective and Foreshortening.
Well, the beauty of the Interent, is that distance doesn't matter too much. If you really want the critiques of your work or idea (and you can be any level of artist) post it on the main CCAS page and ask. The more detailed your request, the more detailed and helpful the responces will be.
Another way of getting effective help is to look over the previous posts and blogs on this site until you see one (or several) that really resonate with you. Post a responce to their work (most of us get email notifications when someone comments) and that starts a conversation where you can bring up your idea.

Robert,
300dpi means 300 Dots per Inch. Meaning how many dots there are in an inch. Higher the dots means higher the resolution.
Also I have had my art work scanned in the past and it can get pricey quick! In the past flatbed scanners cost a bunch which put them out of the price range for most people. Brother just released a large format 11x17 scanner, printer thats way affordable. I actually just got mine and got it set up a few days ago. You should check it out. Right now its $155 on Amazon. Hope this all helps.
