Agency Publishing Seeking An Artist for Tickling Comics

[Oblesklk]

We haven't done this in a very long time, but we're looking for someone interested in continuing our Cyriaan Chronicles line of comics, and we'd prefer to have it be someone within the community.

For those that have never heard of us, we have been producing high quality tickle torture comic books for several years now. Our web site is www.the-agencies.com. Our main comic universe is "The Agencies" and is already being covered very well by another artistic team.

Our last Cyriaan Chronicles comic book was published two years ago. We temporarily halted the product line in order to market The Agencies a bit more. Now that we've gotten down the road a little bit, I was interested to see if I could find anyone willing to take over our fantasy line, and bring back The Cyriaan Chronicles starting with Issue Five.

This would be a serious undertaking. It would not just be for an issue or so, you would be the permanent artist on that line. It is a lot of responsibility, and I'm looking for someone serious about their art and professional development. I'm attaching samples of some of the artwork our current artistic team is doing with The Agencies, so you can see the caliber of stuff we're talking about.

There is no experience necessary; I am not interested in what you've done in the past, only what you can do today and in the future. Having said that though, I will need to either see a portfolio, or some sample of what you can do today.

I want someone highly motivated, that is excited about tickling, about comics, about defining their own look and mark with this material. I want someone eager to start on a project, and always willing to come up with suggestions on how to improve the product and characters. I want someone who loves the fantasy genre, and doesn't mind spending hours drawing unicorns, elves, feathers, and whatever other silly things come to mind 🙂

You would be doing all of the artistic work for these books. You would take a finished script, and turn it into something beautiful. That means you will need to be able to pencil, ink, and color (or find someone that wants to help you to be able to do all three).

It is a lot of hard work, but trust me, it is very rewarding. If you're interested in working with us (yes, it is a paying gig), just PM me with samples of what you've done, and a little something about yourself.

If I can't find anyone in the short term, we'll just stick with The Agencies for now 🙂

Just a little bump and reminder for anyone interested in this position, to either respond here or (preferably) send me a PM.

I have been in talks with a few artists privately from within the tickle community, but no papers have been signed yet. I've also been in talks with artists from outside the community, but again, no agreements reached. I would most definitely give preference to artists within the tickle community. You guys do good work, and I'd love to reward you for doing what you love.

We'd be paying on a progressive scale, meaning the longer you work with us, and if your books become profitable, you would get retroactive raises to all future books you've worked on, and will be working on.

This is a fairly unique opportunity, and I definitely want to give the tickling artists a head's up.
