Seeking Manga Artist 8+ pages

**kingofsnake** · July 17th, 2009, 04:52 PM

I'm looking for a manga artist for work on a shounen for submission to DC's Zuda contest.

It is a monthly webcomic contest. Competitors receive 500$ for a successful eight 4x3 page submission. The winner of the monthly contest wins a year contract to continue the comic at 250$ a page, one page per week.

I'm looking for an artist who will complete the first eight screens for a total of 320$ (which I can pay as a page rate ($40 per screen)) and who would be willing to work on completing the story should it be successful, splitting profits 50/50 (125$ per screen). Each screen would be divided into two smaller manga sized pages, including one full-sized splash page, and a cover.

The story is about two American boys who are part of a group that fights off alien parasite slugs. I am looking for an artist who is comfortable in an dirty punk style akin to FLCL or Tekkonkinkreet. There are action scenes and giant monsters. Color would be nice but half-tone or two-tone would be acceptable. First chapter script and story arc outline available on request.

I have participated in the contest before and worked with an artist before. My previous entry was The Rejects, which came in fifth that month.

You can review my other work at my home site www.capcomics.net

Please email me at [email protected] including a link to art samples.

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who has responded so far. I plan to make my decision which artist I will work with on Sunday July 26th.

I will respond to everyone regardless of who I decide.

Again thank you to all the fine artists who've already contacted me.
