Custom Comic / manga pages
Want a custom comic / manga page?
I'm an aspiring illustrator with a desire to do comics. Creating my own full-length, multi chapter project just has been rather daunting, so I'm looking to create for others for the time being. Please read through this entire page.
Order Comic Pages on ETSY or here on my website

Comic info
Provide a detailed Storyboard per page (REQUIRED) and description
Any Artwork does not have to be highly detailed/complex (stick figures and/or text may be used), but the storyboard must clearly display the number of required panels and what needs to happen in each of them. This storyboard and panels may look as simple as the storyboard shown here.
Actual panel layout can be requested or left up to the Artist
7 panels max per page
If ordering more than one page, more than one storyboard is required!
What's required for storyboard(s):
- A clearly displayed/written story
- Number of desired panels (though finished work may contain more if artist feels they are needed)
- Any desired dialogue, sound effects
- 7 panels max per page
Character Sheets
You'll receive one for each of your main characters required for the comic. Background characters that serve no purpose for the story do not require these character sheets. You'll receive this service regardless of whether this is an original piece or a fan comic.
Character sheets may include:
- Front and back of character
- Close up details of clothing, shoes, hairstyle, accessories
- Weapons or other important items
Preliminary sketches
You'll receive a preliminary sketch (per page) ready for your approval.
If Mutiple pages are ordered, you will receive preliminary sketches of each page in a bundle once all are ready for your approval.
If these sketches are NOT to your approval, you can request up to 2 more complete redraws from scratch (if necessary).
* Additional complete redo sketches maybe done if work is compensated.
Sketches are rough and will show basic concept. 3D materials maybe used to map things out.
Line Art
Once sketch is approved, project will then move onto line art and you will receive an update once the page OR pages are completed.
This will include backgrounds, fully detailed characters, etc.
When these are to your approval, the project will move on to be fully rendered.
MAJOR CHANGES:
- 3 opportunities per page for any major changes
- NO COMPLETE REDRAWS (as this should have been done during the sketch process)
- Small changes maybe done for free
Full Render
Once things move onto full render, this is when black fill and any screen tones/hatching will be added for shading and traditional manga coloring. This is also when any sound effects and dialogue / storytelling text / balloons are added.
Changes can still be made at this point, but they are limited:
- No changes to lineart itself
- Changes must pertain to shading/toning/hatching or the dialogue/text. This may include shifting text box location, actual diaglogue wording and or font / size / etc, or other added effects.
Deposit option, Cancellations, and Refund Process
Instead of paying in full up front, a 50% Deposit maybe requested. Only orderable through invoice through my website.
You may cancel at any time and receive a refund, but a cancellation fee WILL apply. The amount refunded will depend on amount of work completed.
So if 50% is completed, only 50% of cost will be refunded.
Project can be cancelled for free only if done before any drawing/sketching has started.
Other info
DIGITAL ONLY
Story can be just about anything, including original characters or fanart. Will draw shippy stories and other various themes, including:
- fantasy, alternate universes, genderbend, m/f, bl, romance, action, comedy, horror, blood, mecha, armor, nsfw, etc
WONT DRAW:
No comics about you, friends, or family. I know people like to see themselves or those they love in a project, but these types of projects I find most difficult and stressful.
No hateful, harmful, or political content.
NO NON-CON, EXCESSIVE GORE, or UNDERAGE NSFW content
