Thanks for the favorite and take a camera picture of the drawings. It sometimes does a better job then scaning the image.

I hope your willing to give advice on every little detail!! ha ha ha. Donno man, recently I'm having ideas for all kinds of shit. Basically I see something and something tells me "I wanna try." you know? Unfortunately, Just went looking for paper today and could find none.

You don't want paper. You want a sketchbook. It's a bit more expensive, but its better quality for drawing on, its easy to keep track of, and its very mobile for those times something tells you "I wanna try". With a sketchbook, you don't need a hard surface, or a place to keep your finished drawings.
Mead makes a good one. Has an orange-ish brown color. It's what I always go for. Wal-mart or k-mart should carry it, probably costs 3 bucks or so.
Then get some mechanical pencils because they're better for technical, detailed work. I mean, wood pencils are fine if what want to do is loose, unfinished sort of sketches and studies, but if you want to do more refined-looking, complete stuff, mechanical is the way to go, cause it always gives you the finest possible point. Spring for the classic bic brand #2 mechanical pencils (2 bucks for like 5 of them) because they are more durable than generic brands and have a higher quality of eraser, which is vital.
Other than that, you might want to invest in a quality eraser (if you're not sure what I mean by that, lemme know), and/or some black markers of various thicknesses for inking purposes if you are so inclined to try that sort of thing.
My preferred method of inking is quill and ink, but I'm out of practice and have lost my tools, I think. Sad-faced.
How's that for advice on every little detail?
