Computer Village...

Damieadeh:
Please where can I get 32gb transcend pen drive in Lagos?

The channels have already answered your question. If they are using more than Photoshop then you have to get the rest.

You are connected to the internet so visit Adobe's website then search for Illustrator CC and InDesign CC. For the universal activator visit Free AppNee website,just google it all up.

eldee365:
Good afternoon Boss,
I have followed those channels you suggested, started watching already, my only problem now is that I have just photoshop cc

Would this be enough?

I'm currently serving, where I am I don't have Access to other softwares needed in graphics
what do you think? is this enough?

I'm looking at photos editing too, have downloaded videos from the channels you suggested and YouTube generally, am already practicing it, so what do you think overall?

Not a problem,man. You can also refer anyone who needs,thanks.

chubbyswit:
it was even kinda phasing out when I bought it. Might contact you if I need to change my tab

Fast forward to today. It's now in the 45-60k range and gradually being phased out. Amazon doesn't even deliver it to Nigeria unless it's the new Intuos models like Art,Draw,Comic,Photo,Manga.

I retail tabs and nib replacements in case anyone needs to buy. My contact is in my signature.

chubbyswit:
thanks. 30,000 about 3years ago.

Yes,mistakes do happen on site but to leave them as they are is silly. We praise the western world for their advancement but this is a reminder how dumb things still happen.

No Nigerian client will let this slide. It's either you fix it,never get a job from them ever and get arrested. I love Nigeria...

My pleasure and all the best.

NGMontana:
You have no idea how helpful you have been, thanks alot.

You are welcome. It really depends on you and how much time you have. I've worked as a cover page artist,colorist and letterer most times but no solo comic in my portfolio. I learnt the hard way when bidding a few times,clients want to see what you have done say 4-8page mini comic. So i've to work on those this year even if it's fan art.
In your case,yes,it's better to bring a team together to get things done faster. You can join these following groups on Facebook i'm on:
Nigerian Comic Artists Group
Association of Comic Makers of Nigeria
Kugali - Afrimation,Comics and Games (pan-African)
How to Draw Comics (International)
All the best.

NGMontana:
I initially wanted to go at it on my own, but eventually I knew it's too much work for one person so I am in the process of putting a team together now. Thanks for your contributions man.

I don't advice a totally free distribution just like that because even your sponsors will need to see some indices it's popular and selling.

That now reminds of me of Supa Strikas which originally started off in Nigeria before it was sold to South African investors. Nigeria isn't where they make the bulk of their money but other countries where they sell better. They still sell for N200,mainly because of their many sponsors of their comics.

Find your own way to make the free+premium aka freemium model work for you. Do you have a team down to handle everything from the script,pencils/inks,colors,lettering and layout design?!! That's a major determination in this campaign. You also need to be attending Comic Connect Africa part of the Lagos Theatre Festival which holds annually in March powered by Comic Republic Media/British Council for Arts and Lagos ComicCon which holds annually in September powered by Mustard Communication/Comic Panel,all in Lagos.cheers

NGMontana:
I appreciate the reply bro.
I actually was thinking of a free distribution model, because I surely don't want to sell my comics for 1k +. I am more interested in it going around, I mean deep penetration then monetizing through sponsors I feel sponsors would key in if they know their adverts is gonna be seen by a lot of eyes.

But I just had a second thought that it doesn't hurt if I am able to sell for like say N100 per issue or N200 and make some profits. I want my issues to be a 10 page color booklet but it looks like I can't get a profit selling at N100 or N200 so I might be sticking to my free distribution model.

After how many years?!!Dude spare me this your usual slogan. You have me on whatsapp yet did you ask all of this*smh*

Grow up please really disappointing and there is Google keep waiting there,you hear.

Polarbite:

Greetings to you as well,bro.

The profit margins is up to you based on your printing costs but before you do that know some things involved.

Foreign comics old issues go for N1000-N1500 while new issues go for N2000-N2500. Nigerian comics sell in that 2k presently. I'll give 2 case studies i use as a guide.

Case Study 1: Comic Republic (http://thecomicrepublic.com/)

Based in Lagos,publishes their comic online for free and sell their printed copies at conventions,creative meetups or events they are invited. You wonder how they make money right?!!Adverts by companies like First Bank,Wakanow,Samsung to name a few,creating story boards for films and clients who contract them to make comics for them or illustration gigs.

Case Study 2: YouNeek Studios
(https://youneekstudios.com/)

Based in the US mostly and Lagos,publishes graphic novels that got funded through kickstarter campaigns. Sold on Amazon,Kindle,Comixology,Barnes and Nobles and also got a distribution deal with Diamond Distribution same company that handles the distribution of the big shots like DC,Marvel,IDW,Boom,Image to name a few. First African comic to achieve such a feat. Shares some free content once in a while though. They attend events on both sides as it goes down.

Follow both of them on social media.

NGMontana:
Good afternoon bro, I wanted to ask you what could be the profit margin on making comics.
I want to launch a comic franchise and I have been cracking my head for a winning formula, I have alternative ideas but I was thinking if I wanted to even sell it straight up in issues or episodes what can I be looking at in terms of cost and profits.

I answered but got banned for my reply...

Just coming out of the ban*smh*Nairaland na wa...

Adobe CS apps are obsolete and have been retired by Adobe since. Just google "Adobe Creative Suite 3 apps direct download" and search for Free Appnee for the universal activator.

Qhalifah:
Boss Pls how do I go about the "torrent download " cos the adobe CS I have is showing "installation failed" when I want to install it

Thank you, very much!

There's no skill you are looking for that isn't on YouTube. It's how you search. Illustration is a skill as a newbie with no experience you shouldn't get into on fiverr at all unless you are outsourcing.

Logo Design,creating custom t-shirt design and social media banners are safer for you to get into as a newbie designer.
