Over time, the artist proof became a standard in printing of a limited edition. Also known as A/P Prints, they are outside the regular edition and are equal in quality to the edition and signed as Artist Proof or A/P by the artist. They were traditionally the property of the artist and usually limited to 10% of the edition as well as being priced slightly higher due to the restricted supply. In today’s print market, the A/P edition prints are normally sold along side the regular edition prints at a slight premium. Some art collectors insist on buying only A/Ps because they feel that they will hold their value or perhaps increase in value over that of the regular limited edition.

Scott's paintings have enhanced the covers of more than 25 major magazines and can also be seen on the highly sought after "Miller Mirrors." Scott Zoellick's magazine illustrations have appeared in numerous outdoor publications and he has also illustrated books for Charles Scribners & Sons, Raintree Publishing Company, Willow Creek Press and Northword Press.

He is a member of Ducks Unlimited, The Ruffed Grouse Society, Safari Club International, Pheasants Forever and The Adventurers Club. Scott has shown his work at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson International "Birds In Art" exhibition several times, designed conservation stamps for the National Wildlife Federation and has donated his art to dozens of organizations dedicated to conservation and the preservation of wildlife.
