11 x 17 ArtBoardz™
Created for the Beginning Artist!
They are a practical alternative to the more expensive comic book boards. Beginner comic book artists can work from layout boards ruled exactly the same way that professionals who use our higher quality ProBoardz™ do!

Non-Photo blue ink shows you the position of where the art should go. Create a complete comic book using affordable boards! Once the beginner artist feels more secure about their skills we suggest that they switch to our series of higher quality art boards!
