We need an artist!
Posted: Fri Sep 05, 2014 6:25 am
Hi,
An artist is needed for a comic book project that two amateur writers from Edinburgh, Scotland are working on. We’re looking to build a portfolio of comics that we can eventually publish ourselves or submit to the big boys like Dark Horse or Image, etc and this is our second comic. The style that we’re looking for is in the vein of Charlie Adlard, Bryan Hitch, Carlos D’Anda, Steve McNiven etc. The story is based almost entirely within a skyscraper in a modern city. It’s dramatic and darkly humorous with flashes of good ol’ comic book violence peppered throughout.
We need an artist(s) with the ability to provide pencils, inks and colours or the equivalent with computer art software. Ideally, we'd be looking for someone UK based but are open to all those interested. We’re willing to negotiate price per page but we aren’t millionaires so please be gentle with us! There is no present timescale for completion.
If you’re interested, please have a quick read of the synopsis below and then give us a shout either on here or at thedesertwhales@gmail.com.
Thanks for your time and we look forward to hearing from you!
Richard and Greg
‘LEVELS’
A former employee of a large insurance corporation wreaks havoc in the skyscraper he was fired from by unleashing a super virus into the building’s computer systems. This isn’t just any virus though – it takes over monitors and sound systems, emitting a blast of hallucinating images and sounds, turning the workers into psychotic maniacs! Now it’s down to one man to try to save the innocent people in the building – Frankie Barrett, the building’s resident window cleaner.
‘Levels’ is inspired by the writers’ love of video games, comics and ‘what would happen if’ scenarios.
