Need a flatter?
Posted: Sun Apr 23, 2017 5:54 am
Hello,
It sounds like a cliché, but a colourist is only as good as his or her flats.
I know this because, as well as being a comic writer, I am learning to be a colourist.
I pay all my artist collaborators to work with me and draw our comics, so I wanted to use my skills as a flatter to help fund the making of my comics (It is a vicious circle!)
Samples can be found here:
https://www.mattgarvey.co.uk/flats
My rates are competitive, $15 per page (dependent on the level of detail on the page.)
Turnaround time, I take between 45 minutes – 80 minutes per page, again, dependent on the level of detail involved. (It’s gonna take me longer to flat a crowd scene, compared to two characters sitting around, having a chat, obviously)
What I would need from you is (apart from payment that is):
A dropbox folder set up with your pages inside, so that I can download your pages, flat them and then re-upload them when done.
Instructions on what format you would like your pages back in, PSD, Tiff, JPEG etc.
Lastly, what kind of flat colours would you like back?
Would you like the flats to be in “realistic� or “wild� colour palette?
It’s your money, it’s your preference.
Thanks for reading my advert and I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards
Matt
