Call for Volunteers for CrimsonBlade

Tanker (tangk'er)n. 1. A dusty, grease-covered, dirty, bright eyed, fuzzy faced, beer-drinking, underrated, over-worked, oversexed, little s%#* who can take a Tank and do more battlefield damage in ten minutes than a grunt squad can do in an day.

Greetings everyone!

So progress is being made on the Crimson Blade comic front.  As a refresher, this is a comic that is headed up by series creator , with myself and as plotters, writers, editors, and color flatters.  

But in order to meet deadlines and such, we're going to need some volunteers to help apply flat colors.  Here's the official line posted on the Crimson Blade FB page.

"What up Ninjaz?

It's been a long while since there's been any updates. Lotta things going on (one of which involved a massive ninja battle with evil kung-fu Ronald McDonald clones...you know how it is), but things are calmin down now. You know what that means? It means Zip gets back to CrimsonBlade!

So here's the scoop: several pages for Episode One/Issue One are now given the full lineart treatment, and now they need some snazzy ninja colors thrown on there. Specifically, the flat colors. Here's where we go to you guys.

We need volunteers to be Flat Ninjas! If you have the time to work on applying flat colors to a comic page or two, and if you have experience working with layers and lineart, either through GIMP, Paint Shop Pro, PhotoImpact, Photoshop, or another graphics program of your choice, we want to see examples of your Flats work.

Now, we're looking for experienced flatters first, but if you have not done such work before and are willing to give it a shot, here's a lineart image for you to test your skills on. We will even show you how to do so. zipdraw.deviantart.com/art/For…

Should we like the work you do, you'll get a random page to work on, as well as a color palette to get the right colors. You'll also be given a credit in the book, along with all your other Flat Ninjas. No money is involved at this time, but we're working up a worthy compensation for those who stick with us and help out. So if you're in it for the money...well, for right now, we can't do that. YET. So that's why we're asking for volunteers, and we're laying it out up front. We definitely need help to speed things up and meet some deadlines (sssshhh...can't say yet! )

So if you want in, drop a line here with some examples of your flat colors work (or use the lineart provided above to show off your leet Ninja skills!), and we'll see what we can do!

Until then...PEACE!"

That's the long and short of it.  You want in, let's see some examples of your comic work, specifically the flat colors.  You want to give it a try, grab Guile up there and give it a shot.  There will be compensation, just not in the form of a paycheck at this time.  If this really takes off, then that will certainly change.  

Until then, if you want to get your name in a comic book and have some spare time...let's see what you can do.  Drop a line with me, or with your example and we'll go from there.

Cheers!

That is all

You want something colored like this?


$10 USD, and you can have it.  Check my recent gallery submissions for examples of how I color if Josie there isn't sufficient.  

For $5 I'll apply flat colors only on any lineart.  

3 slots available.  Only three so there's a rapid turn around, hopefully.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Just send me a note and we'll make something happen.  I use Paypal, so no issues on that front.
