Monkey wrenches, and the last of the comic book commissions.
8 years ago
Normally I don't post here about whats going on in my life, I try to keep that a bit secret and usually post only on facebook. Though at this point, I think that I haven't posted much on Facebook either.
Recently came up on a bit of trouble, where I am applying for a position where they need to do a background check, and a credit check. I'm pretty much emptying the bank in order to clear my credit and pay any outstanding debts, but I am a bit short. By the time I am done, the only thing left, will hopefully be my student loans, that I have no realistic hope of clearing out unless I literally win the lottery (they are a little over $200K).
To have a shot at this, it all needs to be cleared, and I am short about $1,200.00 (give or take).
I had already considered that if I get this job, I won't be able to dedicate time to art nearly as much as I am doing now. So I figured that this may be a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
I'm hoping to find three people who would be interested in working on three comic book projects. The would be similar to the ones I have been working on, Temptation and Letterman. B&W (or monochrome), 1-5 characters, about 10-12 pages, for $400 each. To make the deal sweeter, I'm going to throw in a set of 10 Telegram stickers (due before Xmas), or 3 extra pages added to the comic. Once the comic book is completed, I'll mail you the real media pages.
You'll have to keep in mind that these are going to be long-term projects, a minimum of 6 months turnaround. But I've been told by those guys who have commissioned me for them that it's worth it.
I will continue to draw Perception and Century, since those are my own comics, but I will not be taking on any more comic book commissions after these last three. The goal is going to be to finish up the ones I have (Real Wrestling, Temptation, Letterman, The Game), and then these three. Honestly, if it works out with this new position, I probably won't have much time to do anything else but that anyways.
Man, this was a long post. If you made it all the way through, thanks for taking the time. Hope to find some interested parties, and some interesting story ideas.

Leo is fun to work with and is an open listener. He also will keep regular contact with you. This has been my experience regarding the comic that is coming out fairly soon, The Game.
