FAQ
? - Do entries have to be in color?
A - No. Entries can be inks only, or even pencil only as long as the
art is good.
? - How good does the work have to be?
A - You aren't expected to be polished professionals, but you are
expected to entertain. Main comic art and writing must be decent. Not
expert level, just good. Arms must look like arms. Dialogue should be
higher than Hansel and Gretel level. High level artists hiring amateurs
for pinup work is acceptable though. This project is about experience
and cooperation.
? - Does the text in my story need to be digital or is hand drawn
lettering okay?
A - I will allow hand written captions and dialogue if it is legible,
but digital lettering is easier to learn and fix afterwards, so I
strongly recommend that.
? - Does "doujinshi" mean my entries have to be anime style?
A - No. American comic style. Europeon "high art" rendering style,
cartoon style, it's all good. Just tell your story.
? - What is the minimum submission?
A - I must have four pages total from you before I post your work.
? - When can I sell (items) in the Healthy Insanity store?
A - When you've signed a contract with us and submitted ten pages of
work total.
? - I don't know how to write a contract with my artist, can you
provide me with one?
A - No. Healthy Insanity will not be liable for contracts between
copyright holders and their help.
? - Can we submit our work as a studio / team.
A - Sure. Commission rules still apply.
? - Can art trades / requests count as commissions?
A - No.
? - "I'm a **** hot artist!" Why do I need to pay someone else to
commission work?
A - Because everyone follows the same rules. Use your skilled eye and
go through the DA job services forums and find a few amateurs who work
inexpensively who deserve a chance to shine. Hire them. That way you
can participate without breaking your wallet.
? - Is there a dollar value that commissions have to be to count?
A - No. As long as it's legitimate. If your best friend charges you a
penny for ten comic pages, you two are cheating. But an amateur artist
working a full color pinup for $5? That's acceptable. |
