Hey there, we are team who are looking for 3 artists:

  1. Art line artist, need to do 40-80 panels a week or 2 weeks. For first Project.

  2. Colorist for the same project, 40-80 panels a week or 2 weeks, it's possible if someone whant to do and coloring and art line. For first Project.

  3. Colorist for another project, 80 panels a week or 2. For second Project.

You muste be 18+, because it contains kill, bloody scenes. No NSFW at all.

Style: We choose pretty hard style, so it can be very hard only because of that. The style is similar or i can say the same like from webtoon "viral hit" or "how to fight". It's action with political storyline and meme characters(popular).

Story: So there is 2 projects so it has 2 stories in the same universe but different mcs, characters, action-fight(style). First project is about Japan-Korean MC, the action will be at Japan. Second project is more bloody, funny, and is about katana fighting, MC is American, story is about his revenge to politicians, +second main character is his grandpa. It's about more than 100 chapters, so yea it's long term projects.

About work: We can't change style, so if you think you can't draw in that style, then don't text like about changing the style. We have storyboard drawers for each projects, they draw very detailed. We have typesetters so your work will be easier, no need for you to put text-effects, texts. We have script writers with amazing stories, already for 5 chapters. We have 2 admins, and 2 managers who will do the payment work and just observe the discord server. Also we have proofreaders, so our texts are without any mistakes. I said this all for payment information.

Payment: Our all team works with collabs(sharings), i mean by % of profits. If it's problem for you then we can switch only for you after some time(work) to budget or per chapter payment way. It's not guaranteed about sharings, but we will get minimal profit even after 1-2 chapter, +we have very big chance to become popular very quick. About profits, we will get the most part from patreon, my youtube channel(with monetization), donation-support websites, and from other websites too.

Communication: We do it on discord, i can even do voice calls if you want it, everyone ready to work, we just need 3 artist to start our projects. I'm available every day, so it will be easier for you) discord: Lemongrad#1282

About work, we can take break if you need for even month, but after some work not after hiring, hope you are interested in our project. We have examples from our artist in that style, also ready storyboards for 1st chapters', Thanks for reading it, i will wait for artists then))

You want artists to draw 40-80 panels a week for no money initially and then when it earns money, they'll get a percentage share with a team that includes two editors, two proofreaders, storyboard artists and presumably at least one writer, and maybe others? If there are 7 people on the comic, the artist will only get about 14%. Assuming that to create 40-80 panels in the style of the webcomics mentioned (which have very high quality and detailed art), the artist will need to work full time on these comics and so earn a full-time wage for it to be possible (because if they have a job, they just won't be able to produce that kind of output), meaning that each of your series will need to make an income in the region of... $140,000 per year.

....This doesn't sound very feasible for a first project from creators with no established fanbase or proven track record. I'd urge you to reconsider how you're going about this.

Umm, the artist is highest rol for us so he will get the most part of the profits, we ready to give 25%-30% for each work, and so if he do two works he get 60% when still many people work with him

Would this job be under a contract? If yes, for how long?
I'm interested in the line artist position, but I can also be a colorist. I can't do both if the given time for 40-80 panels a week or 2 weeks would risk my health.
I use a pen display tablet and CSP pro, and have been drawing since 2014. Extra skill able to use blender to model 3D props including texturing and rigging, so if in need 3D props you can count on me.
I can do a test if needed.

Looorrrdd unpaid 40-80 panels a week/every two weeks is way too high of a panel count! That's more than a lot of Webtoon originals for way less pay if you manage to get monetised (which is super difficult with comics)

Setting those kind of expectations with little evidence of your writing and storytelling will make it difficult to find an artist.

If you don't mind me asking- what's stopping you from having a lower panel count? I'm not applying, I'm just curious.

Okay, so let's say the artist gets 30% of the profits for making 40-80 panels a week. Wow, now all your project needs is to make around $60,000 per year (and I'm low-balling here and assuming the artist earns under $20,000, which is a very low wage, barely enough to scrape by... And as for doing two comics at once... that's 80-160 panels a week. That's approximately the workload of a shounen jump mangaka. It's just not possible. I've never heard of a person making that kind of money on their very first comic.

You need to dial back your ambitions a bit and be realistic, especially if you want an artist of that level of quality.

We work without contract, but i can make it with you if you want it)
It's your decision, we still didn't find artist so you can choose what you want, sure you can send me example)
Can you do that on discord please?

You don't need that many panels per episode for an action comic to be good- especially since you're starting out and the comic will not be monetised. Many of those 70-200 panel comics have a paid team working behind them, usually contracted by the site they're hosted on.

An episode just needs to progress the plot in some way :slight_smile: I know as an artist even just doing the lineart for that many panels could cause burnout/injury.

Yea i understand, you are obsulutely right, but if i want to make like from 30% to 60-70 i need to fire like storyboard drawer or someone else, and i can't just do that, i tried my best to give as much as i can to only artists.

Maybe you do quite understand. Revenue is not guraenteed. Infact, it is incredibly rare to have any sort of revenue assuming you reach that level of getting steady revenue. What you're asking for is a full time job with VERY risky investment.

ignore speling I am super tired

I'll contact you later, preparing my work samples. But right now I still have one more 90 panels episode to complete, so I will have no more work after they are completed which is in the next month will be available.

In all seriousness, why a long project immediately? Have you tried a shorter story first? Dip your toes in the water to see if there is an audience for it?
