That's why I'd rather stick to b&w comics, with line art, however it can be just as time consuming.

Fair dues to Dan, if you want to go down that route of painting the characters and worlds first, hmm in fact it'd perhaps be a better start ifyou wanted to make cash on it..

I've a few comic ideas, I've already sektched plots for. The problem is the refinement and quality of them - putting in the muscle takes time and hard graft.

Indeed ip's for artists are a must. I'd do anything for the practice and refinement but sequentials and comics are on the list.

Concept art is exploding now, there'll be many more studios comming up, I'd imagine. Hopefully standards and prices kept reasonable for artists.
