^Truth. In addition, take note of what Scott is doing here; he's using his own photos. Bad situations come up if you're tracing over other people's photos that you didn't have permission to use... If you don't change it up enough in your drawing and someone recognizes it, things can get ugly. Real ugly. Always best to use your own photos, 3D poses/scenes, etc.

All in all, there's no shame in drawing with references so long as you have permission to use them, though I'm pretty sure there are tons of free references as well out there but you get the idea.

@@dddaaa6965 Yeah, I’m all for using reference photos, but that’s heavy usage of them. For backgrounds it’s pretty normal, but for every character on the page is excessive and borders on plagiarism if you’re not using your own material. All the more important to learn the fundamentals of figure and gesture drawing so you don’t have to rely too heavily on references in the first place.

24mm is a great length on Full Frame cameras for a nice wide angle! On APS-C sensors, it gets cropped, so a 15mm is the equivalent, so make sure you know what kind of camera you're using. I think it's all personal preference, though. Play around with it and find what works for you! I like to sketch out what the idea is first, then try to make the photo match, not just shoot whatever and hope that works in my layout. That way, it's still my layout that drives the composition, not whatever I did in-camera, if that makes sense. :)

Thanks so much! Honestly, the best advice I can give is to create your own comics, put your head down and make them for 5-10 years, go to conventions, meet artist peers, introduce yourself to editors and try to make good stuff. You just gotta get your work in front of the right people (without being annoying) and the jobs will come eventually! It just takes a long time, and sometimes, even if you think you're ready, you're not, which is not what people want to hear, but it's true. I know that's how I used to be before I got some really good crits on my work and had to really push it to get it to pro level. There's always ways to make your stuff better, so keep improving, keep pushing, and keep making friends with cool, like-minded people, and it'll all happen eventually. That said, yeah, I should probably do a video about it, since I just wrote a whole paragraph. haha

It's just that for a novice it's really hard to understand what's the right way to get noticed, and I thought that might be an interesting topic.

It's not. I have my canvas set to-size for my pages, but at 1200dpi, so it's almost like working on an 11x17" canvas, since there are so many pixels. But yeah, you absolutely have to keep bleed trim lines in mind if you ever want to print your work. If it's digital and will always be digital, you could skip them, but I think it's better to be on the safe side and just include them, in case your plans change in the future. It's easy to set up, so might as well.
