If any of you want to try something new, one of my friends is planning to start up a webcomic but he needs an artist first. He's learning to draw himself, but until then he'd like someone else to do the illustrations so he can keep his creative juices flowing, and because he's been waiting to begin the comic for almost a year. If you're interested, email dj.warf@gmail.com

what's the comic about?

I remember for a long time I wanted a webcomic artist who would draw a webcomic for me.

I hate to break it to you, but if anyone really wants to get a webcomic made, you'll pretty much have to draw it yourself, even if you can't draw for shit. Everyone has to start somewhere, and it's usually at the bottom in the basement.

Just tell him to draw it himself. It's the only way he'll get better.

Tell your 'friend' he's a fucking retard and should stop wasting our air by breathing.

If he's been practicing drawing for a year and can't even come up with something half decent he's either not got the talent or he's not even trying.
If you really tried you'd be able to get at least a half decent grasp of anatomy in a month or two, even if you suck. It just takes effort.

If he hasn't been trying all that time then he should have been and it's his own fault he can't get the comic started. He instead needs to write stories, learn to use a "style", preferably a simplistic and cartoony one, or just start making the stuff without posting it anywhere to not only keep his creative juices flowing but get practice in drawing and later on he can always go back and revise the earlier ones to make the art a better quality.

If you wanted some serious advice, then it all comes down to this: art. Is. Hard.
Your friend can't take the easy way out. He has to work for it if he wants something.
Nothing in life that's worth having is easy to get; not even a shitty webcomic.

Oh, and by the way, why are YOU asking here for your friend? Can he not access these boards? Is he too scared to hear what we have to say? Are you able to draw better than him? If so, why aren't YOU helping?
Just admit YOU are your friend, or explain exactly why your "friend" is such a pathetic waste of life that not only does he need to beg for someone to draw for him, but he has to ask his friend to do it for him.
On the internet.
On an anonymous board.
Without even posting any art he's made himself.
And don't say he's "too busy" or some shit like that, if he really wanted this so badly that he'd need to beg for artists to help him, then he would have MADE time for practice.
I live a busy fucking life, but I want to become a better artist, so I MAKE time.
It's one of the easiest things to practice, too. All you need is something to draw on and a tool to make marks with. He could practice ANYWHERE.

TL;DR - Your friend needs to get off his ass and do it himself, or alternatively, AN HERO, because anyone who's not willing to do that doesn't deserve to live; they're just wasting space for someone worthwhile.

I love the smell of /ic/ in the morning.

Seriously, dude, why do you even bother? Nobody cares, just sage it away, is all.

Also, sure, art may be all hard work and whatnot but it's not like he's going to need it, seeing how it's a webcomic he needs help with.

Webcomics have nothing to do with your drawing ability.

I think I just needed to vent. Nothing like a good ol' rage.
Plus, you know, I might teach the nigger something...or crush his feeble spirit. Either's good, really.

Also, good point. Some of the best have some unimpressive art...it just doesn't matter.

So it's pretty much on par for webcomics.
