Hello!
I’m an author currently developing a long-form webcomic adaptation of my wuxia novel, and I’m searching for an artist who wants to build something powerful together.
PROJECT OVERVIEW — RED WOMAN: THE FIRST GRIMDARK JIANGHU
A wuxia tragedy about a woman who becomes legend not because she wanted power — but because she lost everything worth protecting.
Tone:
Dark, emotional, atmospheric
Blends philosophical wuxia with brutal Jianghu realism
Heavy character focus
Cinematic storytelling with poetic violence
If you enjoy stories like TGCF, MDZS, Berserk (emotional tones), Gu Long dramas, or Mugen no Juunin, this project will hit home.
WHY THIS PROJECT IS VISUALLY SPECIAL
This story naturally supports:
Dramatic poses & sweeping robes
Emotional close-ups
Painfully intimate fight choreography
Complex mentor–disciple dynamics
Flashback structures, parallel scenes, symbolic shots
Gorgeous backgrounds (brothels, temples, snowy mountains, imperial palaces)
Characters who FEEL like myths even while breaking inside
The visual potential is insane.
WHY ARTISTS LOVE THIS KIND OF PROJECT
Because it gives you:
A main character (Jurui) who is visually iconic
A woman martial artist whose aura is both devastating and gentle.
A living paradox — elegant but monstrous, tragic but noble.
A story with guaranteed emotional engagement
You’re not drawing filler.
You’re drawing betrayal, loyalty, impossible love, disciples who worship and resent their master, a doomed romance with a prince, and a legend’s downfall.
Fully planned storyline
The series has:
Full outline sampai tamat
Strong arcs per chapter
No “lost plot” syndrome
No wasted episodes.
LOOKING FOR:
Artists confident with anatomy & motion
Strong wuxia / martial arts aesthetic
Emotional acting in faces
Good composition for vertical scrolling / manhwa
Willing to collaborate & brainstorm
Style can be semi-realistic, painterly, or stylized wuxia.
Revenue share with clear agreement.
