Writer Seeking Artist for Comic Pitch (CLOSED FOR NOW)
Posted: Wed Feb 18, 2015 5:07 pm
Heyo! I'm Alex and I'm currently working on a project called Tales of the Outworlders, a soft historical fantasy sci-fi melting pot sort of thing. I have a fair amount of the script already finished, but, as I'm sure many of you know, I only need five pages of it right now to make my pitch.
I'm looking for pencils and inks for five pages and a cover, and while it's not mandatory, I'd also like to encourage candidates to do a few character pin-ups in order to familiarize themselves with the designs before they start working on the panels.
What I'm looking for:
Five pages.
What I'm not looking for:
One, two, three, four, or four and nine-tenths pages. Anything less than five pages is utterly without worth to me. Hence, obviously, vanishing halfway through will... not be appreciated.
Content:
PG-13, more or less. Not much language, no nudity, some assorted ninja and monster violence. Nothing really outstanding unless you're exceptionally weak of stomach.
What I need:
Since this is supposed to primarily be an action/comedy comic, the ability to draw vibrant characters, expressive faces, and dynamic action is an absolute must. Strong scenery is also, obviously, a big plus. I'd prefer for you to be as experienced and skilled as possible, obviously.
What I'm paying:
$200 for those five pages and a cover. I'll pay $20 per page as they're finished, then $100 more when the whole thing's done. This way, if you stop halfway through, I'll be able to start over with a reasonable amount of capital. If you don't stop halfway through, it shouldn't be an issue. I'm open to negotiation, of course, if you have some other ideas, but I am putting my highest reasonable figure up already.
Email me at ravynsland@gmail.com or PM me here. I'll be waiting for a little while to see what submissions come in so that I can choose what work works best for me. Please include some samples of your artwork.
Also, I promise I'm pretty nice and easy to work with. I've just been knocked around in the past in affairs like this, so I want to keep all of my bases covered.
Edit: Position is currently filled. Thank you to everyone who applied!
