I'm posting this here in case anyone else is interested who didn't see the poll!
Yes indeed, I am starting a comic. Im very excited for the project, it is something I have been working on now for almost five years. Ive spent a lot of time developing it, and I cant wait to finally start drawing it out and brining it to DA!
Before I get into the details, I will let you know right away that this is indeed a wolf-themed comic. But there arent any sparkle wolves. Art of the project can be found here, take a look if youre interested:
[link]First things first, I really need a Background Artist. So, Im on the look out for one!
If youd like to be my BG artist, there are a few things you ought to know: You must have a digital program with layers (photoshop, paintshop, etc) and you MUST have experience with natural backgrounds.
Almost all of the backgrounds in this comic are natural (caves, forests, fields, etc. ) There arent a lot of buildings or anything like that.
You must be willing to commit to this project. Please, dont offer yourself up if you know youre too busy. I understand being busy, but Im willing to make time for this, and Id like to find who is willing as well. We will be making a comic page every 2 to 3 weeks. Well take breaks too, and when we find ourselves with more free time, we may try to do an extra page here and there. Ill give you the time you need, as long as you prove you really are working on it. Im a patient person.
Im looking for someone who will be positive and is interested in the project. Most of you know Im a pretty cheery sort of person, but Im also mature. Please be mature about working with this project.
You are NOT committing yourself to hundreds of pages of work. The comic is divided into chapters, and you can stay on the project for as many or as few chapters as you like. I understand if something comes up, and I will appreciate the time youve spent with the project :]
Heres how it works:
Every few weeks I will send you a file of a comic page with flat colored characters and outlines and/ or colors for the backgrounds, as well as a text description of what Im looking for. Next you will create the backgrounds, and resend the file to me. Ill add shading and dialogue and viola! We have a comic page!What YOU get as a BG artist: Youll get an exclusive look into the comic. As well, you get an automatic cameo and youll get free art from me too. Later on I intend to make merchandise for the comic and maybe even publish it. If its a success, there maybe money in this deal down the road for you, it all depends on how the public reacts.
SO. If youre interested please let me know through comments here or notes. Show me some examples of backgrounds youve done, and Ill see how they blend with my style.
It may be a while before I make a decision, but eventually I will. I dont intend to start the comic until at least December, so there isnt too much of a rush. I may also create a line-art to color for examples later.
ALSO if you there is ANY other way youd be interested in helping with the comic, let me know. Your offer may prove to be really helpful and you could be a part of the team!
Lastly, please let your friends know about this. If theres anyone you think might be interested, Id love it if youd direct them to me. Please and Thank you!
If you have ANY questions, please dont hesitate to ask. And please dont be offended if I dont choose you. I need to find someone whose work looks good against my own, and yours just may not suite the project. Thats okay!
I really appreciate the interest in my upcoming comic! Hopefully we can make this something really worth reading! <3 Just let me know in a comment or note if you're interested!
