Gud day nairalanders.I've been drawing ever since i was a kid(drawing na my life!) and...abeg let me go straight to the point jare! I want to become a comic artist but it seems a bit difficult.i want to be able to draw whatever i imagine and bring it to reality without using any reference book to do that.So if u know of any book or any online tutorial(omo ajepako ni mi o,just make sure the book or the online tutorial no cost too much mb sha?) and anything you know that could be of help to becoming a comic artist.Abeg i no fit sleep again o,it's killing me o...

"Omo Ajepako"..lol..anyways, I think you should be ready to invest a lot (mb/money) if you want to know more about comics. but most importantly, you must have real passion for it 'cus comic publishing comes with its own challenges just like any other venture.the question you should ask yourself is..1, what role are you going to play in the comic publication process which include the story development, penciling, inking, digital coloring, editing, cover art design etc...2, your target market and how you intend reaching out to them..3, the comic industry in Nigeria is geting attention now with the springing up of great comic books like, strikeguard, june12, newage etc...what are you going to be introducing that can make yours stand out..4, funding..how do you intend to fund your publications even without advert or branding from coporate bodies...5..what platform are you going to be pushing your comics om..print, online or both...etc...anyways, I promised to send you a pdf tutorial on drawing comic characters, I will do that as soon as I get home. I have your email....choii..see epistle....below is a picture of Roye okupe's EXO..i snapped that page for you to have an idea of some of professionals involved in the comic publication process...beautiful thing is, it's not a must you can draw...you can simply be a good story writter and you get people to draw illustrate for you. Comic industry is goin to be big in Nigeria in the next two years..tap into it bro..all the best.
