Web comic series - looking for long term artist

==Comic creation instructions==

I need a comic artist to bring my ideas to life for creating a new web comic series as part of a research experiment. If this experiment works this might turn into a long term opportunity (that will also pay better as time goes by). My goal is to eventually create around 15 new comics per month.

Attached you will find 5 of the comic strips already created*. This not only gives you a very good idea of the work required, but I would also like to continue developing the series in this style with the characters already developed so far.

*Note: I posted this project before and started working with an artist. He delivered good work but unfortunately due to other work commitments he could not continue on this project currently.

==Project Phase 1==

30 comic strips.

Will be delivered in milestones:

* 5 comics

* 5 comics

* 10 comics.

* 10 comics

The majority of comic strips will be between 1 and 4 panels.

You will be provided with the ideas and scenarios.

==Requirements:==

* Draw web comic based on the joke / scenario provided.

* Comics will eventually be shown on [url removed, login to view] Right now the site contains a few random comics I grabbed from web - one square and one wide - just to test layouts. Will delete them soon.

* Deliver in batches of 5 so I can give early feedback.

* Deliver for each comic strip:

** web-ready PNG or JPEG. (Max 720pixels wide)

** high quality version. (2160pixels+ wide)

(i.e. something that can be used on T-Shirts, Mugs, etc.)

==Characters==

The entire series will focus on customer service and technical support.

If this becomes a regular series I wish for the characters to develop and become known.

Any customer service person will always be drawn with headset.

We will over time play with stereotypes - so think of characters that fit those:

* Fat customer service guy (Todd - see example comics)

* Skinny / Nerdy customer service guy (Brad - see example comics)

* Indian customer service guy

* Customer service girl

* Supporting cast will be customers, family, friends, girlfriends, etc.

== Hire process ==

Before project will be awarded I’ll require that you submit the first joke as example to verify that the style and quality is correct. If you wish you can submit a sample ahead of time - this will greatly improve your chances of being awarded the project.

So if you wish to do so, please pick one of the following:

Please note:

Brad = nerdy/skinny tech support guy

Todd = fat tech support guy

1. Brad: This feels great! I just received the first person ever to phone in and congratulate us on our superb service.

Todd: Awesome. You should tell our supervisor!

Brad: Don’t think I can do that.

Todd: Why not?

Brad: She dialed the wrong number.

2. Brad talking to Todd:

Brad: So that's when I realized the one-touch principle does not apply everywhere.

Earlier… (Brad in bed with unhappy girlfriend...)
