@zacharygephardt Ha ha, I love it

Here's my attempt

P.S. Sorry it's blowing up so big in the forum. Not sure how to fix it.

I like the look of the second one more as a composition but I appreciate the cuteness/humor of the first one more and would be inclined to pick that one.

@TessaW All good points to address. Thank you very much

@TwiggyT I totally get what you mean and it makes perfect sense. I'll be sure to address that in the revision. Thanks so much

I've received e-mails like this. Rarely do they turn into anything, but it doesn't strike me as particularly suspicious. Congrats on getting noticed.

Hi guys,

This is my first time trying to enter an SVS contest. Resurrection and ink? How could I resist. I'd love some critiques both on the narrative of the illustration and the technical aspects. I'm feeling like maybe I should do it over with a less messy inking style? Try to keep it cleaner and pay more attention to light sources? What do you think? Does the story come across clearly? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

@Paul-Burton Wow, thank you for so much for such a thorough answer to the question. I'm just curious, aside from something like copyright infringement, what are reasons an illustrator could be sued? I'm at a place where I really only make a few hundred dollars here and there so I feel like I can't justify spending money to establish an LLC right out of the gate, but I also want to be safe if there's a real risk.

Vero

I've had several people suggest I register as an LLC but haven't seen any reason for this. What benefit does an LLC give for an individual who just does freelance business under their real name?
