because i'm starting a series manga and I have pages full of information on the manga but I need some visual works as well and I can't draw for my life, are any of you willing to draw for me, we'd contact each other everyday, if not do you know where I can find artists with some skill looking to work for someone, free of charge and just for fun?
if you do please tell me where
if you're an artist yourself contact me either here or at www.myspace.com/perfectprophecy

If your looking for a professional artist you wont find one for free. They're professionals for a reason and if that's how they make a living they're not going to do favors.
Drawing really good artwork takes time, especially if you want inking and coloring (I'm assuming you do)
The only possible place you might find someone is to visit local colleges and universities where people study illustration and sequential arts. The students are trying to build a portfolio and what your doing might help that accomplish that.

Hi Josseline, Very, very nice work! But I would have liked to see more, and different drawings, which I'm sure you can do. To answer your question accurately, yes and no. Everybody has a skill. Music, writing, drawing. However, with continued practice, even brutal practice, you eventually hit a wall. Everybody hits a wall. Even the greatest artists of all time, like my favorite...Bev Doolittle, hit a wall. I read a statement she made once, saying she was disappointed in her work to some degree and wanted to improve but just couldn't so she felt like she was having to settle for less. Everybody has limits Josseline, even you, but at age 13, you are in a better place by far than those before you who are older. Your skill is only in the budding stage. Try branching out, doing something different. Always think of this statement/question..."Am I drawing inside a box?" Get out of the box Josseline. Beg to be different. Take your drawing where others have never taken it before. Experiment. Don't just draw anime like everybody else draws it. Find another plane, another dimension, and create drawings that no other can draw. Regarding your drawing and the Internet or other media sources...Stop putting your work out there for others to pirate or take advantage of. The Internet is rife with people who steal other peoples work and ideas. Take the time to develop your style and your perfection and then look for an agent to handle your work. Read up on copyright laws. Complicated, boring stuff, but necessary if you want to make money at what you do for fun. And regarding the background you have on YouTube? Get rid of it. You can't read anything on the site as it clashes with your background. People will lose interest in that very, very quickly. -Jeeem-

i'd help u, but i don't draw for free unfortunately. i get paid $45-$120 for an anime mousepad drawing. so i guess i can't help u there. i AM in a group where we're starting our own comic book/manga though. but all the writers and artists get pay for that too. i would have to go with everyone else on here and say go to a local college or university. there's where most of our artists come from. or u can go to a comic book store and post flyers there.

I doubt anyone will just draw for free for you... You have to convince someone that they like your story and WANT to draw for you first! If you really want to get someone to do that you might want to try networking with people on an art site like deviantart.com. Or post more details about your story at least!
I know personally I'd have to know what the story was first, and I really doubt I'd have the dedication to do more than 3 pages or so for free, as drawing any comic or manga takes a fair amount of time!

You sound like you're more of an editor or writer than a manga artist. [: Try going to a university and offer a job.

I'm not an artist, so I can't help you there. Try Youtube: there are a couple artists that draw pictures of other youtube users and record themselves creating the art...I think its pretty neat. Maybe one of them will draw "anime you".
