Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
I am looking for a graphic designer that can turn my fantasy book The Written, into a successful graphic novel.
The Written is the first book in the Emaneska Series - a bestselling epic fantasy series that was launched last year. The Series is four books in total, so there's a big opportunity here for future projects too! The second book - Pale Kings, was released in February of this year, while the third and fourth book - Dead Stars Part 1 and 2, will be released next year.
The style I'm looking for is very much based around the tagline for the Series itself - "Lord of The Rings meets Sin City." I am looking for a very Frank Miller-esque style, very dark, very adult, with lots of violent action, colourful characters, magic, stark and wintry scenery, and room for the artist to go wild. Other influences include the Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire series, and also the "300" film and graphic novel.
The graphic novel itself will be published as an eBook and physical book, so the opportunity of having the name on the cover is a big one. The Series has already seen over 50,000 sales and downloads to date, so the platform and audience for it is very healthy already.
The Written itself is 422 pages long, but am looking to keep the graphic novel's length around 100 pages. I am looking to keep it that low for publishing costs.
For a little information about myself, I am the author of the series, its publisher, and also a self-publishing consultant.
This job is more than open to discussion. I would be more than happy to discuss the budget, depending on the artist and art you can produce! I will also be willing to look at a royalty split, if you would like to discuss that too. This is very much an invitation to a partnership, and I look forward to seeing where we go from here.
Please see the attachments for the book cover, and a short snippet of the book.
