Cartoonist / Comic Artist / Illustrator Needed

**Resposting a previous bid request. After speaking with the company I am working with, we found this needed to be reposted with new requirements for bidding. We greatly appreciate all who submitted in the past and welcome you to bid again with the new requirements. The company I am working with owns the character you will be drawing. There were many submissions they liked. However, they felt the submissions did not give them enough to see if the hired person could truly reproduce their character and have it LOOk like their character. The submissions should be YOUR version of this character in at least 3 rough sketches in different scenarios and from different angles.** See below for two examples. I am looking for a cartoonist / comic artist to create 15 - 20 small cartoon drawings. Each drawing will be **your rendition of Savage Man, the already established character** for the company I'm working with and sketches should be recognizable as Savage Man. Drawings are for an educational book geared towards 9-12 year old kids. The drawings would be of the same small character in different situations and would be about 3"x3" in size. Cartoons should be colored/shaded as well. ![Actual Character][1] Actual Character - See below for two examples. ![][2] First sample-very rough sketch ![][3]Second sample-rough sketch ## Deliverables **The submissions should be YOUR version of this character in at least 3 rough sketches in different scenarios and from different angles. They will only compare those that submit versions of their character. Low res and watermarked absolutely acceptable.** They will select from those that submit samples using the company's character. When the artist has been decided, initial sketches will be requested. All desired sketches are not yet known and the rest will be requested chapter by chapter. We are looking for someone willing to work with us if we request an image and are not satisfied with the submitted image. I would think with good communication, there should be no more than 2 revisions per sketch. Please provide your best price as this is coming out of small pockets and is riding solely on the *hopes* of making the money back. **_______________** 1) Complete and fully designed graphics all approved by the Buyer and ready to be placed into word processing program. 2) All deliverables and designs created will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
