Hey guys!


That's right. I've come to realize that as much as I like drawing, comics are not an art form I perform well at. I'll admit, I don't consume a lot of comics (or comic-related stuff) so I'm not exactly immersed in the artistic universe as much as other artists. But I do like to write. And I believe my characters, storylines and ideas can lead to something good. I just don't have the resources to turn my thoughts into proper comics. That's why I'm looking for someone who would be willing to embark with me in an artistic journey to explore the realm of Glenmetropolis with me. A collaboration, in short. I'm not sure there's even any anticipation for it, but Glenmetropolis is a story that I've been working hard on for years now, modifying characters, finding and setting the proper tone, and recently I've been giving it more direction towards what I want it to be. It's something I'm committed to. And I would like to have something to show for.

A few clarifications first. One, if someone agrees to collaborate,  that doesn't mean I'll stop drawing. I like to draw out-of-context scenes and character profiles, it's what I've been doing ever since I joined dA in fact. But comics are a language I don't speak personally. I understand their general form, but I can't make a decent one for the life of me. Second, and it's an important one - I'm not looking to hire someone. I'm a university, my belt is so tight I can barely feel my waist. I cannot pay anyone to do this, unfortunately. And third, I'm open to ideas from collaborators. I'm not looking for a rigid, one-way "you do what I tell you to draw" kind of thing. Artists on dA are some of the most imaginative on Earth, so you better believe I'll pay attention to cues and suggestions sent my way.

If you're interested, please give me a sign. It would literally make my month.

Oh, man. I wish I could say yes to this. You know I want to see your stories and characters in comic format.

I cannot be the one to help you do a large comic project, but I'm always happy to help promote and do some fanart and such :)
