Artist/Inker Needed for 4 Page Sci-Fi Short

Chas! · 07-14-2014, 01:50 AM

Hey interwebs! I’m looking for a penciler/inker for a short 4-pager.

What the story’s about: It’s a sci-fi vignette that harkens back to old EC Comics. Yes, cheese and all. There’s a pretty gory finish though.
Your role: 4 penciled and inked pages.
My role: Writer/letterer.
Deadline: Fairly loose. Ideally, I’d like at least a page a week. What’s most important to me is that you’re happy with the work you’re putting out and that there’s actual progress.
Payment: $200 divided into two payments.
- Payment #1 after the first two pages are completed. Payment #2 after the rest.
- Both payments with be through Paypal within 48 hours of each step’s completion.

Other notes:
- The short’s going to be colored. While I haven’t searched for a colorist yet, I’d love to find someone who can pull off a old-school coloring look. I’m talking off-center coloring, slightly-yellowed pages, etc. If you’re able to do this (and have examples), I’d be more than willing to bump the pay up.
- Yes, I’m hiring you as a freelance contractor. That being said, I want a collaborator! The “process” is one of the best parts about this medium; open discussion to enhance the story—be it through words or pictures—is absolutely essential. Let’s make something great. No egos here. Just the best product we can both possibly deliver =)

About myself: I recently received my Creative Writing Masters MFA with a focus on comic writing from Full Sail University. I won a bunch of awards (Valedictorian! The “Advanced Achievement” award! Woot!) and have been working on various comic projects ever since.

A short I recently wrote/lettered got picked up by Alterna (and can be read for free at Challenger Comics), I’m the editor for an upcoming graphic novel that was funded through Kickstater, I’ve got a pitch project nearing completion, annnd a tie-in comic I wrote for a feature film is currently being penciled/inked. I’ve also done a bunch of random lettering gigs over the past few months—ROM Remix, Bartkira, and all sorts of other goodies.
