No problem! I really love your detailed Copic works. I've only had the courage to do that sort of thing once or twice in the past because I have so little patience with it and it takes me months!!

I saw your post on the manga creators thing, and I seen your skill. I was wondering if you would consider looking at my work. 'm a writer but I lack artistic skill. I was wondering, if you would be interesting in bringing my storyboards to life so to speak. If you have any question please reply. Thanks

Ah, but you caught the part about me having ADHD, right? You're okay with that? I take a bit more prodding and incentive to get going than most people sometimes. Most of the time. And it's guaranteed I'll get bored halfway through, so you'll have to be ready to convince me to keep going.
Also, I forgot to mention, but I want to have at least some say in the writing process. If I don't like the story I won't want to draw it, you know?

No worries about that, I'm autistic myself. We 'head cases' need to stick together. And don't worry I'll be more than happy to poke and prod at you when the motivation flags. As for the writing process. I will be happy to consider your opinions and discuss them with you, but I will have to insist on having the final say as the writer.

Mm. First of all, have you read Zombie Powder by any chance? Either that or watched Trigun? The setting reminds me of those two series.
Anyways, your chapter of Godling is pretty good. Your writing is definitely head and shoulders above anyone else who's asked me to draw for them. I'd be willing to give it a shot. Right now I'm working on a one shot that has to be finished by March 31, but after that I'd be willing to start work on yours. The simpler backgrounds will be good because I hate all the ruler work involved in drawing cities (and yet most of my comics are set in huge cities.... Haha). In order to do it, I'll need you to send me all the background info you have on these characters. Que dice, companero? >:-D

AAAACK! I kick myself for not thinking days ago. What exactly do you mean by background info?
π: 0 β©: 1
Kikubi In reply to Straight-Lace [2012-03-13 00:08:35 +0000 UTC]
Just info about the characters: where they came from and what direction they're going in. Also a little on what direction the story's going in.

Straight-Lace In reply to Kikubi [2012-03-13 19:25:14 +0000 UTC]
Sorry this is really long.
Story: plot idea is faint but there, I can't articulate it yet, mostly an epic quest motif so far.
Characters: I plan to add a few other important protagonists and antagonists but heres the info so far.
Terence 01 is an android created shortly before The Collapse to act as a body double for the son of a wealthy crime lord. He will look incredibly childlike but will also be armed with a plethora of concealed weapons. He will be AI, and can understand how emotions work but will not feel any himself. I want him to be a cold logical foil to some of the more emotional characters. He joins Cain and Iggy after awakening to find that his owners are long dead and he no longer serves a purpose.
Beaucephalus is a beastman, a group of diverse tribes of humans with animalistic traits, in Beaus case, a bison. Beastmen are stronger than humans but are fewer in number and are for the most part enslaved by humans, his main drive is to find a means to free his people from said enslavement and to this end he joins Cain and Iggy a few chapters from now, around the same time as Terence. I do have some of his past worked out but not enough to write.
Iggy was the member of the Appalachian Bureau of Magic, a wizard and scholar who delved into the history of the Ancients. One day he suspects that 'magic' is in fact advanced technology left over from the Ancient times. As a result his superiors want him silenced, so he flees and encounters a young Cain. How they met will be part of a flashback arc later on. His goal is find evidence among the ruins of the Ancient civilization that will prove his theory. This will one of the driving factors of the plot.
Cain is a man searching for answers about himself. he has no idea where his incredible abilities come from and while traveling with and protecting Iggy he hopes to find the answers he's looking for. I have a few vague ideas where he will encounter potential love interests but so far nothing concrete.
Again sorry this is so long, please respond so I know you got this

Woah... So weird. That whole thing about there being lost technology from the Ancients, I totally have something like that in my main series, Punk It... And I have a character who's an android that was created as a substitute body for a princess... So weird................. I think we're gonna get along pretty well. Haha
Also, this wasn't too long at all. I was actually expecting more. If I sent you all the info for my story, it would be a word document upward of 10 pages. Lol

Hello there!!!
I love your gallery! May I know your art status??

Kikubi In reply to Very-Simple [2012-03-05 19:07:42 +0000 UTC]
Eh? My art status? Like whether or not I'm professional?
I'm not professional at the moment, but I'm working on becoming a serialized shonen manga author. You can't really tell from my gallery, though, can you? Haha

Very-Simple In reply to Kikubi [2012-03-06 02:27:14 +0000 UTC]
Yes I could :3
I was wondering where you are with requests/art trades/ point commissions?

Kikubi In reply to Very-Simple [2012-03-06 19:11:01 +0000 UTC]
Oh you can? Haha. I feel like it's kinda too much of a hodge podge to tell what direction I'm going in.
As for that other stuff... I guess I've never really done any (except once I did an art trade with a friend I knew irl), but I'm not averse to the idea. Why, would you like to do one?

Kikubi In reply to Very-Simple [2012-03-12 18:46:13 +0000 UTC]
Hmm...
I suppose anything's fine. You can go through my gallery and pick someone if you like. If you want I can tell you some more about him/her before you draw the picture (since I think info on my characters is a little lacking in most of the comments...).
Ah, but in your note, be sure and specify what style you want the picture done in, too. Like, show me an example of one of my pictures whose style you like. (Just make sure it's not the one I did in Sai cuz I don't have Sai right now and you can't reproduce that in photoshop...)
