Hello...

Um...so yh, Hi.

Im Link0180, or just Link, Im new here and i was told this site would help me to get people to know about my Manga...or "soon to be" manga really, so i thought i'd give it a go and hopefuly make some proper friends with people that don't turn on me at some random point.

So yh i like Manga alot like Naruto, Bleach and so on right to the point of wanting to do my own, tho. as of right now im not in the best position in the world to do that right now, you know, no drawing tablet and quite alot of other things putting me down, one day, one day i'll make it happen, i personaly donw care if people dont want me to, i get told alot that i'll never make my manga, but then when i take their word for it i get told off for being too negative so i can't really win...so i'll just have to make miself win then.

Its not a good first impression i guess but at least its MY first impression...normaly someone else does that before i even get the chance to meet new people and it all goes south from there. >.>

Re: Hello...

I dont think that'll be a good idea, plus now or soon is not a good time for me (or ever really) to post any form of art for me, to make my ultra long sob story short i have right now a computer that runs on less then 1gb or memory so Photoshop is out of the question, even if i could use PS i dont have a drawing tablet to draw with anyways.

I do have drawing i did traditionaly using pen and paper, but i did them A3 size, tipicly i dont have access to an A3 scanner... :c

Not having the equipment you need sucks. I suppose if you're working - you need to save up a bit.

Re: Hello...

Have you been going to job fairs? Or something of the like? You really need to spend the whole day just hunting different stores or outlets to find something.

Re: Hello...

Well im prone to mess things up so i always kept it on something simple, plus being on the brink of depression 24/7 i was adviced to go for something small so atm it's ether a cleaning job warehouse and shelf stacking, not the most exciting job but its better then nothing at least...

Oh that a pretty great advice. Keep us posted on how things go~ <3.
A small job better than no job is always better and even if its not lets say an ideal job - you can always work up and use the previous jobs experiences as references.
