Seeking Manga Artist


hythrain's avatar
Seeking: One artist for Snowbound independent manga.

Responsibilities: Pencils and inks of character art ONLY (Thumbnails provided, background pencils & inks and all toning handled by other artists).

Price Range: $15 to $20 per page (Price is based on the breakdown of each page given my max payment per page) during volume 1. Most likely increase in price prior to beginning work on second volume.

Number of Pages: Approx. 200 pages per volume. Unsure of number of volumes at this time.

Additional Info:
- Production on the first volume will be taken at a relaxed pace in order to allow all artists involved the time needed to engage in any other projects they have going on.
- Ability to mimic style of previous artist will result in higher chance of being hired. To see style of previous artist you can view her deviantART profile, =mayshing, or you can look at this page sample as done by her: [link]
- Payments will be done through Paypal. If you don't have a Paypal account, then sadly we can't work with you.
- Must have use of Skype and Dropbox. If you are unaware of either of these programs, I can happily explain both.

HI, I'm interested! It would certainly take some time to mimic the style, but I think with enough practice I could be able to do it... But still, I let my self at your hands to decide either I'm "your man" or not. :P

P.S. I am currently working on a couple of works, which I will be finishing soon! I could send you somehow what I've done on them so far... if you are interested!!! ^^
Please favor me with your kindness xD

Hi Stephan,

Thanks for your interest in this project!

I took a look through your gallery, but I noticed there isn't a lot to go by. You only have around a couple dozen pieces which don't seem to have any sort of consistent look between them. Sure, a few match with others, but often they are of the same characters anyway.

On top of this, there's a distinct lack of sequential art samples. This is the kicker. I need to be able to see what you can do with comic pages. I can't follow up with the information regarding the mimicking sample without seeing this.

Hi Virtua,

I took a look through your gallery, and I'll admit I don't think you have the level of art quality I'm looking for. I've had some rather talented individuals contact me, and rather than get your hopes up I'd rather be realistic with you and note how virtually impossible it would be for you at this time. I do thank you for your interest, though, and I do encourage you to not give up and to keep drawing!

I honestly can't tell if you're trolling me or are actually serious. I have a feeling it's the former, but I'm going to be respectful and go with the latter.

Simply put, nothing in you gallery, at all, makes me think you are even capable of an art style similar to those used in Japanese comics. As such, I must decline being able to consider you for this job.

Thank you for your time,

Drew

Hey there!

Do you happen to have any sequential art samples? These are sort of clutch for a job like this.

In addition, I also need to ask for a style mimicking sample. As I've gotten more applicants than I expected, I've been having applicants produce samples to show their ability to mimic the previous artist.

I can provide you with a few samples of the style, along with a small script for a one-page comic you can use for producing this sample.
