Must everyone have to go through a fundraiser aka kickstarter to realise their projects?

28 Jan 15:38

I can see that becomming a big trend

futurespaceghost

yeah i was thinking more the artbook route with my ips but thats what lms is basically but with info on the characters

Scott mcloud is good, I'd also highly recommend the Dc comics guides to comic's series and Framed Ink

28 Jan 15:35

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

Like steambots exodessey

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..

bur dan luvisi is like tge posterboy for this shit right now and i dont think he was well known before he dropped lms on everybody lol

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.

28 Jan 15:31

Adam Lina

because then people know your name and theyre interested before they even see it

i want to have a following before i get out there with my own stuff

28 Jan 15:31

futurespaceghost

it helps :)

28 Jan 15:31

Adam Lina

it helps though i bet lol

28 Jan 15:30

Rognoll

specially if it's a webcomic

28 Jan 15:30

Rognoll

I don't think you have to be already on top to start an IP

28 Jan 15:30

futurespaceghost

definately haze i have all these ideas ive been developing since highschool. if all i have to do is kill my self with thousands of hours of drawing painting and networking im up for it lol

28 Jan 15:29

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.

28 Jan 15:28

futurespaceghost

yep i heard that their base pruce was 1300 but i could be wrong

28 Jan 15:28

Adam Lina

yea make your own successful ip would be the ultimate goal id think

28 Jan 15:28

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

28 Jan 15:28

futurespaceghost

but i want to create my own ips of course

28 Jan 15:27

Adam Lina

applibot pays better than wizards i hear

28 Jan 15:27

futurespaceghost

i guess you could say my end goal is having my own game studio or design studio like massive black

28 Jan 15:27

Nous

I'll take that, yet most gaming and concept art studios are hard as nails to break into

28 Jan 15:26

Rognoll

Wizards hands down.

28 Jan 15:26
