HI, I don't know if anyone you can help me. I am a student studying Graphic Design. Well here in the Caribbean to get the digital tools to use are very expensive, and we don't really have outlets available to get discounted or used stuff. Right now, I am using a friends computer to do all my work, cause my computer is not working.
This semester we'll be doing 3d animation and Motion Graphics, I don't know if you know anyone who has an old or used Wacom tablet available, who might be willing to donate it to me. I need one for my class and it's two expensive here.
Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

Robert,

300dpi means 300 Dots per Inch. Meaning how many dots there are in an inch. Higher the dots means higher the resolution.

Also I have had my art work scanned in the past and it can get pricey quick! In the past flatbed scanners cost a bunch which put them out of the price range for most people. Brother just released a large format 11x17 scanner, printer thats way affordable. I actually just got mine and got it set up a few days ago. You should check it out.  Right now its $155 on Amazon. Hope this all helps.

I posted this elsewhere, but I need info. I do not have a scanner (as of right now that works. I will be penciling about 30 pp of a comic and will need to get it scanned in somewhere so I can get them inked via photo shop or Corel. I was thinking of going to Kinkos to see if they can do it. I need to know "everything" because I am absolutely clueless about this stuff. I have seen something called 300dpi? Also, what size flash drive should I have them put 30-32 penciled pages on?

 

Anything you think I should know, please fill me in.

 

Thanks,

 

Robert

I gotta' question for my fellow "amateurs". I write and draw - and use tthe mouse - righthanded. After just a few minutes my wrist feels tight. I grab my right wrist in my left hand (right side of my hand (pinky side) goes between my left thumb and the rest of the fingers of my left hand. I kind of flex the fingers of my left hand (gently squeeze) and my right wrist pops! In fact, I've done it about 2-3 timnes in the time it has taken me to type this. (4times now). Any ideas why? Any exercises you guys do for your drawing hand/wrist?

Sorry, I don't know anyone there. What are you looking for? I don't live in DFW (I'm guessing that Dallas Forth Worth?), but might be able to help - emphasis on MAYBE.

CCAS at Comic-Con

The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011

In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.

Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
