HIRING REALISTIC COVER ARTIST
Posted: Tue Nov 14, 2023 8:34 am
Hello Cover Artists,
I am writing this in the capacity of the guy who has written and is producing (i.e. paying out of pocket) for a comic book to be made, as I am trying to legitimately get into doing this professionally. As a graphic artist myself I know that art is subjective. I also hold cover art to a higher standard than interior art. Realism is a huge plus. To give you an example of a comic book cover artist who impresses me: "https://www.artstation.com/subversivegirl". Of course, Bob Ross is also in that wowing category.
The comic that this is for has Zorro as the main character. It is extremely dark and violent - think of Zorro being written with a tone like Batman/Dark Knight + The Punisher. People die in it. Particularly, this is an anti-child trafficking issue. He hunts bad people down, slashes them up, maims, and kills them. If you want to email me your portfolio or talk - my email is: "BENJAMHOUSE@gmail.com". I plan to remove this post once this is done with. Thank you.
