Hello peoples.

I am on the lookout for a well talented PhotoShop'r (or whatever tools you may use) to be my colourist for my online comics.
I currently have 1 up on my site, with tons more to come. my site is new and upcoming so im just getting this project on the go.

The comics are funny/game related.
I would wish the person to have time to do the job, if they are interested. you DONT have to be the shiz at it, but decent.
I tried coloring in one of my comics myself, and its not bad but not good either.

If anyones interested in tag team'n a new online comic with me, Sketch, then please respond.

www.OneHitGamer.com is my site. (mainly about PSP Game Code Creation)

The "OneHitGamer" name i originaly thought of for a comic title, where like you have "one hit wonders" in music, the main character was a HIT gamer. he had one MAJOR videogame he stared in and then he becamea one hit wonder. so now, its just about him and his life. it doesnt sound atractive at first i know, but dont worry, i got this under control. :)

I do random art as well. i will upload later. be sure to check out the "BETA" funny comic in the comics section on main site. also in forums theres some more of my stuff in the NEWS and UPDATES section.
also planning a FULL on comic as well.

So, if you wish to join me, please speak up!
(can show you alot more arts that arent online too)

I'm willing to try it out.

I have not spent too much time in the area of Digital coloring, but I'm an avid Photoshop user. I actually have a cartoon that I drew for my School paper, that I was hoping to color sometime this week.
I'll post it here when I finish it, and if its any good, count me in. :D

Edit: I may also try it out in flash

I'm also willing to give it a shot. I made tons of Flash games, and I really like Photoshoping, so whatever you need, I'll be glad to help.

Maybe i can make good use of MULTIPLE artists eh? lol. just so you guys know, i do 2 different styles of art.
One, is cartoony comics. Two, is whats in my sig. generally i like my art original and stay in black and white. BUT, just for my random art, i will probably leave black and white. and for the FULL comic, i would of course want to do colored.

Funny comics will be 1-8 or so panels long. the FULL comic, which would take longer to make of course, can possibly PAGES long. several pages long if not a full 30 pages worth. that project would be in the future, as of right now i wish to focus on my funny comics.

I have no problem tag teaming with several people. i will open up a new section at OneHitGamer for just this. maybe a biography of all the artist and you guys the colorist's. i been wanting to make my "posse" into a cartoon, along with story info, bio's etc etc. lol just make US apart of the fantasy world WE create.

Thats one more thing i wanna say out loud as well. Yes, i own OHG, and i own the comic and future art/comics. BUT, WE are the creators. i dont wanna be the "head of the team". i want the TEAM to be head of the team...if yah catch my drift lol.
Ok, ima shut the hell up now. im just happy now, if i can get some creative mofo's on my team, then it would inspire me to do more stuff in art.

Blah blah blah, yada yada.
Im a funny guy, and i CAN show it in my comics. and i would wish to bring some talented peoples along on the ride with me. :)

PS: Just a little background on OneHitGamer, we have grown fast and big. alot of people come to us for code creation among other reasons. almost everyone, mainly in the PSP scene, knows about us. we DO have enemies, but we have more freinds then anything. like i said before, OHG was originaly made for a comic, but turned into a code hacking site. but, i wanna lift the original idea off the ground and run with it. i just need you guys by my side as i CANNOT do what you guys can do.

Rewards? lol im seeking a TEAM. thats the reward. tobe apart of the team that CREATES OneHitGamer online comics. basicly YOU are starting a project as well. so its not just ME seeking to start this with talented peoples, but its you who are starting it as well. it is NOT a job, its a tag team effort to make online entertainment for a growing website.

And yes, i could up some black n white pics for you to color up. give me some time though, as i would want to sum up something new and challenging enough.

And presenting....

Well, I finished my first cartoon today (sort of, it still needs a bit of work to clean it up, but this is basically what it will look like). I made it for the christmas edition of my school newspaper. That should hopefully explain why it's about christmas.

Any feedback is much appreciated ( i think that that the 2nd and 4th frames need the most attention personally)

EDIT: I have now also attached the original for those curious to see the transformation

Those are nice, then problem i would see is my stuff will need to be more detailed. and FULL color. just like penny-arcade or any other comic. so i would need the peeps coloring them to be pretty good. if you can do something more FULL, then great. sorry i didnt up a B&W pic yet for you to color. will soon.

Understood. This was my first attempt at a comic, so I'm kind of a noob when it comes down to it. But I'm willing to keep trying if you still want my help. If not that's cool

Not much detail, but should allow your artistic skills to shine thru enough. :)
