I thought we were talking about webcomics.<br> <br> You might have some luck posting to comic-related message-boards, but it'll be slim pickings. The biggest appeal of webcomics is that the creator doesn't need to compromise his/her vision to get reach an audience. If you want an artist to draw [i]your[/i] vision, then that appeal is lost.<br> <br> If you've got several ideas, I think you'll be better off picking one that will still work with crap art, and making it yourself. If it catches on, you can ask your fans if any of them can draw one of your other ideas. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2005:site.20730-337417 Tue, 05 Jul 2005 08:08:38 -0800 RobotHero http://ask.metafilter.com/20730/Where-do-writers-go-for-artists#337606 Do you like <a href="http://simkinberke.com/commisions.html">this style</a>? comment:ask.metafilter.com,2005:site.20730-337606 Tue, 05 Jul 2005 13:12:17 -0800 nobody
