This seems lie a good web comic.
The story line isn't hard to follow
and is quite interesting. The art is
okay too. I'll definitely follow
Thanks for sharing your link.

Hi there, I've known people who have dealt with both ka-blam and comixpress. Generally most of them prefer ka-blam. While comixpress are quick to respond at first, they are slow to deliver. If you have complints they usually give you the run around. Color quality isn't very satisfactory ka-blam but ...

Hey Marcelino,
I just opened this thread today. I must say your current
project looks interesting. I also noticed that your style
is developing with each panel you draw. Congratulations
on your new gig and I hope you get more in the future!

I generally find that not keeping them exactly the same every time is okay. I just make sure that the characters are still recognizable and the action is understandable in each panel. But if the people I'm collaborating with are particular with uniformity, I find grid lines generally useful. I also ...

The fact that comics are not as widely pirated as music or movies is good thing. It allows more revenue for the industry and helps more artist find opportunities to excel. Currently there are several comic book titles that can be downloaded in PDF format luckily though it's not as widespread as eBook.

Hey Steve, The ideas sound solid, I'm currently trying to contact someone whom I think will be good for this project. I'll try to have him log on so you guys can talk about the details. I'm expecting him to be available in about a week. I don't have any samples to post for him at the moment but his ...

Yeah I feel that way too. I find the illustrations that I do using tablets lacking a certain quality that the ones I make with pencils and papers have. I figured it's a difference in the medium but at the moment I'm trying to explore if it's just lack of experience with the hardware that's causing t...

The artwork looks great! But the link you provided
seems to have a problem. I hope you get it up and
running again soon. I hope you succeed in this project.
Good luck and more power!

I never got used to drawing directly to my computer. Some friends have lent me several very expensive equipment to try out over the years but it seem I can't get the hang of it. Is there a tutorial out there for using tablets to draw extensively detailed illustrations? Your recommendations will be v...

It always helps you have some drawing skill. There are many free tutorials on the net on how to draw and design your own characters if you're willing to put the time into looking for them. The best advice I can give you is to start with simple ideas. Try designing characters but try not to copy othe...

Hi Steve,
While I'm personally swamped right now, I know a few artists I can recommend. I know some pretty good artists who are out of work.
What kind of art work are you looking for and what is the comic book about?

Great story, I hope you guys continue working
together even though you are far away from each other.
Try to continue collaborating online and start a blog with your
comic online. Oh do post some samples of your Steve comics
here.

Wow great artwork! I would love to work with you sometime early 2nd quarter next year. I'm swamped right now but I'm always looking for talented people to work with in future projects.(I have several lined up) Good luck to you though on finding someone to work with soon.

As for the original question, old school or new school, it's always better to come up with your own style without strictly adhering to one school of art. That way your art stands out and you help with the evolution of the arts.

I believe the reason behind manga's success is that it comes in a variety of genres intended for specific age groups and specific genders. A lot of people get turned off by manga simply because they come across one that's intended for a younger audience or something that is not intended for them and...

These days making money online is as simple as ever, well relatively simpler than it used to be anyway. Specially if you have great content. All you have to do is create an account with blogger or wordpress, get google adsense and make sure to regularly post your web comics to ensure steady traffic ...

I think there is definitely a market for online comics. It's just a mater of getting our products out there. Currently the average age of internet users are close to the target demographic of most online comics. There are definitely lots potential consumers its just a mater of getting to them. I gue...

Wow these are great references! These will definitely come in handy in a project I've been working on. I'vs been looking for something just like these for awhile now. Thank you very much for the great pics!
