As you may know, I'm Art Director/Assistant Project Manager on the indie comic The Melanites. They brought me in to make sure everything remains raw!
My first issue as AD, THE MELANITES #2, is now LIVE on
Kickstarter!
My first issue as AD, THE MELANITES #2, is now LIVE on
Kickstarter!
The sales pitch:
The Melanites is a comic book series about the emergence of a mysterious pantheon of super powered beings who take an interest in the progression of human society. The discovery of the Melanite Blacc Ice in The Melanites #1 leads to a new status quo in the streets of L.A., as rival gangs unify around the God Of All Thugs. As more of these godlike beings establish themselves around the world, some see them as gods, while others worry that they are devils. As issue #2 opens, we see that the powers that be are not taking all of this lying down. Check out this b+w cover art (colors are in-progress) and some unlettered preview pages below
The creative work on The Melanites #2 is in the home stretch! The black and white art is about 95% done. The coloring is about 70% done. Lettering is starting this week.
So this is a great time to launch the crowdfunding!
Our Kickstarter is live!
