I want to draw a comic page. Like, on comic size paper, scan it, and shrink it down. Only problem is, I don't have any paper. So, how big is comic paper, so I can simulate it with photoshop and my tablet(I can probably find this out on my own), and my real question, how much do I shrink it down to get it regular comic sized?
11x17 bleed with a 10x15 live area. It's shrunk 64%
But, really, it doesn't matter what size you actually draw the pages so long as when produced they are standard comic size (unless you want a different size)
Some artists draw on a 9x12 page, Darrow draws on paper that's the size of movie posters, Maus was drawn on copy paper.

How big is an actual comic page, so I can just use Image Size in photoshop? It's smaller than a sheet of printer paper.
i just resized some pages for print, and the company i used wanted them at 6.8 x 10.5.Originally Posted by TheAFNYGuy
Cool.
Next question. Where is the best place to order comic paper?
I use Blue Line Pro. You may find them at Blueline.com or something like that you can google.
