There's no need to repost your thread every day, you can just ping your previous one
But it's not that useful unless people will have some more info, so I would really recommend checking out the Collaboration guidelines to make your proposal more interesting for others ^^
It's always nice to know what the person who seeks for a partner can offer themselves, including the examples of what they already made (writing or art).

!Before you post your request please read the following post and check out the linked resources to help make your collaboration post a good one! To ensure that you are communicating your project effectively to the community, please include the following list of information within your post. Introduction: Tell us a little bit about yourself Project Details / Pitch / Sample Paid or non-paid? Collaboration? Partnership? Skills you are looking for / what you are looking for Required Software (…

(Don't forget to check the threads mentioned under Resources!)

You need more info on the story kiddo

All right... first

• No one needs to know you're a minor neither should you use that as an excuse if you can't pay an artist, just say it's unpaid and done (Still, just to clarify, try to avoid using excuses or justifying things with you being a teen, mostly to avoid building up that mentality. Teens can actually make money with part-time jobs, babysitting, selling food, doing errands, mowling the lawn in houses, etc)

• I'd rather recommend focusing on your studies first, comics are very time consuming and while being passionate is actually a good thing for any kind of project or hobby, it's important to keep your priorities straight.

• If you're attempting to get a collaboration and expose the fact that you're a teen, at least provide an approximate age range, since the forum has people of all ages (the age min is of 13) especially, most of adults are around their 25-50. So it'll be better to have that established to avoid any kind of umpleasant situations or for a stranger that doesn't know nor care about your age, to demand and have a specific approach to a project that later on may be too serious or too strict for you.

Besides that, while trying to make a collaboration. You need to provide actual information, a solid idea or at least a more convincing pitch, just as Kelheor has mentioned in their reply. Because most of people would rather ignore a non-solid, non-clear proposal.
You have to mention what it is what you want to do, if you're going to provide something to the project with an equal amount of work that will pair up with the collaborator's (Otherwise, that wouldn't be much of a collaboration but just requiring someone else to do the heavy lifting)

As well, you don't need to repost your threads, you made the other post 21 hours ago, if you didn't get replies back then, better check out the way you're proposing things especially when there doesn't seem to be any kind of benefit or pros for the other person.

These guys are literally trying to help you

None of this was meant as an attack on you and your idea.. All they meant to say was that other people should know what they're getting into when considering helping you on your project. That's not unreasonable to ask for, man

[RedLenai]

Well... Sorry I guess, but none of us are the ones who is struggling to get a collaborator.
This is providing advice that you may require if you don't want to look like a beggar, someone who tries to be pitied or be totally ignored.

I wasn't attacking you, I literally have nothing to earn from "going off on" a teenager who clearly doesn't know how to propose a collaboration, doesn't have a clear idea nor provides a clear concept of what you are attempting to or what is the possible artist going to draw, and used twice and as a first impression the lines "I'm a teen I have no money".

If you react this way to recommendations that are meant to help you, then I believe you're not ready to start a comic, you won't be ready to criticism or opinions from your collaborator, even less be ready to receive comments/feedback on the comic if you plan to share it online

[Holzie_Wings]

It's fine, I'm doing a comic by myself and yes, I can indeed take criticism.

[RedLenai]

I hope that's not the ego speaking. Because the way you reacted and edited this post doesn't give that idea
