Where can I find a cartoon illustrators forum?

July 5, 2006 10:19 AM

Looking for forum or community for people who, for want of a better term, do illustrations (of mainly cartoony type things a la Pictoplasma, www.zeloot.nl, Los Logos, etc) in Adobe Illustrator or similar.

I have an interest in the subject and would like to get into it more but have a lack of knowledge of how these works of art are produced and would love to find a user forum where people like me could participate and learn from more advanced illustrators.

Illustrator World used to be really great and then it crashed. Looks like it's back up and running now. Poke around there, I would imagine it would have links to other sites as well.

Drawn! is a great blog with lots of fantastic, inspiring links.

Vektor Junkie is a free downloadable magazine.

GFX Artist and Deviant Art are both excellent and cover a wide range of disciplines.

Phirebrush, Post Forum, Pluginz, Z Brush are also very helpful. (ZBrush isn't really vector-ish, it's more like Corel Painter, but the forum is excellent and full of talented and knowledgeable people.

Thanks matey, i'm especially loving Drawn! and am checking out the rest as we speak.

I've already spent quite a long time in the Zbrush forums and am super impressed at what those guys come up with...

Thanks again guys!
