This message is being posted in all the forums I go to. If your interested in having people see your artwork read on.
This idea came to me a few days ago, the manga Deathnote which I consider to be quite good is actually made by two people. It's written by Tsugumi Ohba and the artwork is done by by Takeshi Obata. Anyway I have ALOT of ideas that I think would be cool if adapted into comicbook form. Currently I'm working on doing so with my story "Room of the Demiurge" which I'm trying to adapt into a 3d digital comicbook. But I would also like to adapt some of my other ideas into comicbooks as well. This idea unlike "Room of the Demiurge" will be done in a more traditional format.
But the thing is I don't have the time to work on two seperate creative projects which is why I'm writing this message (I barely have time for one right now).
What I'm looking for is someone to do the artwork for my second comicbook idea Right now the title is still pending on what it will be called even though I wrote a number of stories based on this idea in the past I want to get the title for it right which is why for the time being it will be untitled. Right now It will be given the name "Bishojo Hebi" for the time being. This story is loosely based off my Hebiko stories and Poop Pain.
What it's about: Logically before anyone jumps onboard for such a project you would want to know what my idea is. This story takes place in a strange alternate world that exists within the belly of a gigantic creature resembling a cow named "Muucurion". The inhabitants of this world actually live inside one of its stomachs but don't know anything about the world they came from. The truth is MuuCurion has been gobbling up the true universe and the things he's eaten have been recycled into makeshift worlds that exist inside each of his stomachs. Even the souls of those he has eaten get recycled into the bodies of the new inhabitants of his inner worlds. For an unknown reason two intruders from the outside have been sent inside one of his stomachs on a secret mission.
MCU (Magical Communist Union): One of the places in the outside world, this is sort of a parody of the magical kingdoms magical girls come from in anime. This is a state controlled by magical girls and its governed in a way resembling communist Russia and China. In other words its more like a dictatorship then actual communism and also with Mahou shoujo. This the land that Hebiko comes from, the world MCU once existed on was devoured by MuuCurion but thanks to the efforts of MCU's magical girls most of the population was moved to a safety zone which exists in space.
Wapan: Where most of the story takes place, Wapan is a country simiar to this worlds Japan that exists inside of one of MuuCurions stomachs. However there are a number of differences, one is that world war 2 either never happened or had a different outcome because the Imperial family still has alot of power here. Also McDonalds is called "WcDonalds" here as well as a number of other differences.
Characters: These are some of the more important characters from the first storys.
MuuCurion: the five dimensional space cow listed above, doesn't really have an active role in most of the story. When he is seen he just goes around eating stuff. He's very big, though he actually seems too small to contain several worlds, the reason for this is that these worlds are contained int he five dimensional areas of his body which are inperceptible in the 3rd dimension. When he poops some really weird stuff happens.
Hebiko: The heroin and main character of the story, Hebiko is a cute little giril with pig light blue hair and pigtails (think something along the lines of chiyo or Yotsuba when thinking of her cuteness) she also has amber colored eyes. However the most striking thing about her appearence is that everything from the neck down is the body of a snake even with a rattle. Hebiko is a chimera from MCU who strived to be a magical girl, but due to her non human status was looked down upon by here peers even though her power was far greater then most of them. Chimeras like Hebiko are regarded as freaks and shunned in that society, but for unknown reasons she was granted official magical girl status by the leader of MCU and sent to Wapan on an unknown mission. Although Hebiko has the innocent personality of a child she is in contrast quite ruthless against enemies she deems to be evil, ruthlessly slaughtering them.
Matt: A foreigner who came to live in Wapan with his sister who serves as one of the emperors elite guards. He's a red haired teenager, probably one of the few characters in the story who truly appreciates the absurdity of his situation. Due to various cercumstances Hebiko comes to live at his house, though after witnessing her brutally murder several Yakuza who try to kill him he is somewhat hesitant. Although he has the sense to recognize this absurd situation for what it is, he does tend to make some studpid mistakes that get him into trouble.
Celes: Matts older sister, she's violent and a gun nut but cares for her younger brother who moved to Wapan from Benmark (A country in the part of the world resembling Europe). Due to her prowess in combat she was chosen by the Emporor of Wapan to be one of his elite guards despite being a foreigner. Celes doesn't like Hebiko and often mistreats her. Celes like Matt has red hair and also has quite a nice figure.
Shini Kuma kun: A being known only in wispers as an urban legen. Something resembling a floating teddy bear that comes in the night spiriting away its victums. Believed to be behind a number of dissapearances.
Yano: A germanic man who looks and dresses like the white haird fold singer Heino. Appears to head a large criminal organization and may have links to the outside world. Whatever he is, he is not human!
Richie Leibig: a blue haired foreigner who loves lolicon. He tends to get into a lot of really weird and troublesome situations both due to his bad personality and his knack for finding some of the odder anomalies of MuuCurions stomach. Develops a dangerous crush on Hebiko early on.
Mr. Couch: A biomechanical being of unknown origin resembling a green couch with tentacles that come out from under the cusions, Leibig meets him inside one of the anomalies where reality is unstable. The two turn out to have very simialer interests and become freinds.
RaiShomei: Ancient Dragon god of the storms. He had been sealed by humans and has now come back for revenge. The strongest enemy Hebiko faces in the early storylines.
Gemini: Another Magical "Girl" Like Hebiko Gemini was looked down upon, because when not transformed Gemini is male. In his male form he looks sort of like an emo teenager dressed in black with dark spikey hair. In female form she has shoulder length white hair and two white angel wings. As a magical girl Gemini has mediocre power , but is a genius who balances out Hebikos brute force methods. Gemini is a techno sorceroror who combines science with magic. Her primary weapon is a bow that launches magical daicon radishes at enemies. Gemini is Hebikos partner but was seperated from her when entering Muucurion.
Barky: a little dog who likes to bark at people, appears to hold some mysterious secret.
Scopius: Mysterious agent from the outside who has come to locate something known as the "End Trigger" he appears to be a cyborg with scopes for eyes, but for unknown reasons most people don't notice this. He's very embarrssed about being named "Scopius" since it draws attention to his eyes. He always tries to convince people his name is "Scorpius" which sounds cool. But this is very troublesome because he's been programmed naver to lie about his name, but this doesn't stop him from trying sometimes he may say things like "No your wrong, my name isn't Scopius, it's Scopius, it just sounds like Scopius because I have trouble pronouncing the letter R". He still hasn't realized how badly he fails at lying about his name.
Xen: Appears to be a little blonde girl with card board wings and a fake card board halo, dressed in white. Carries a very sharp katana, appears to be a supernatural entitiy most people can't see. She calls herself a shinigami.
Requirments for those applying for the artwork position:
Artist expectations: There will be two types of artists needed for this, Primary and secondery artists. There's different expectations for the two of them. But right now I'm really looking for Primary artists for more details go here
http://z10.invisionfree.com/The_5th_Stomac...view=getnewpostAfter the first primary artist is found I'll be pretty lenient about the times each page is supposed to be done by, once we get up to the ideal of around 3 primary artists I'd like to put out about 1 chapter every 1-2 months but I realize that might be a bit much for one primary artist to handle even with the help of the secondery artists so that time table won't be put into effect until cercumstances are ideal.
Preferred drawing style: Most of this should be done in the same style as these character designs
http://z10.invisionfree.com/The_5th_Stomac...view=getnewpostThough there will be parts done in different styles, even if this isn't your style, there's a good chance there will be a part of this that does fit what you do. For more details on that last statement contact me if you have any questions.
Pay: Right now there is no pay but once the first graphic novel gets published pay will be divided up between us determined by how much is contributed by each person to the storyline. I promise this will be done in a fair way so don't worry.
