She told me we should probably have someone (or some people) do some preliminary art for the characters, settings, and set pieces before having a more permanent artist. What do you guys think? I can give a super-detailed description, but I can't draw. I'm not exactly a great artist either, but the thing with description, certain dimensions, shapes, and colors cannot be described effectively and will not be as good as a sketch or something, so when the artist goes on to make the official illustration, it may be different from what you thought or expected. Its also probably significantly less convenient for the artist (visualizing an image from a description is likely to be more susceptible to inaccuracy than if there is a rough sketch already to base it on).
