Hello everyone.

So I am looking for an artist(s) to help bring my vision to the page.  Ideally, a full production artist capable of pencils, inks, colors, and letters would be great.  But if I can find the right team, then that is an option also.

I have a script for a single issue already done, working on number two now.  The genre is crime noir but set in 2100.  In this world there are lots of things that are different than 2015 Earth, some not so much.  The protagonists are very flawed anti-hero types.  The dialogue is often gruff and profane, the action at times brutal.  Its a dark world indeed, and the imagery would need to reflect that.

The artist here would need to be capable of creating characters based off descriptions.  I have fleshed out my cast pretty well, but there has to be an ability to invent from these descriptions.  So, therefore I am not really interested in seeing your replication of popular characters.  I would like to see original characters and backdrops.  A lot of the panels here feature closeups so being able to detail faces is a must.  Also, taking my ideas and switching things around if the outcome is better would be welcome.  For instance, some of my panels feature long conversations between characters.  Being able to come up with different angles I may not envision would be outstanding.  I really want this to be a team collaboration instead of a client/ artist type project.  That said, understanding sequential comic art and also how to allow space for lettering is vital.

I have a budget for the first issue.  But I am looking for someone that believes in my world enough that after that we could work under a different agreement.  Of course, any good artist would need to see the script to agree to these terms.  In that sense, I'd be willing to share my intro (10 pages) to the right candidate to see if they'd be willing to commit to something long term.  Those interested, please post or pm me your work or links to it.  Potential candidates can discuss rates with me later.  I do not need them yet but if you want to send those too, then that is fine.  To be clear, this 1st issue is a PAID venture.

I am really excited about this project and look forward to talking with you.  Ciao for now.
