IT"S OFFICIAL. IMAGINOS PLUS IS LIVE!!!!!
A lot of people here on DA say they are fans of my art and I really appreciate it. However, right now I need for you guys to show me with your pledges. I am working on this kickstarter along with other great artists here on DA. We need you guys to help us make our anthology a reality. We are trying to create a forum where someday EVEN YOU may want to come in and do work with us.
While we are quite diverse in the mediums we choose to work in ( from writing for short films to pitching scripts and projects for film and TV, and helping others through the pitch building process) we believe that comics, particularly comics anthologies are the natural progression in showing what a story can do in the visual medium.
As far back as Gary Reed's Caliber Comics,anthologies have helped to launch the careers of some of biggest creators in comics!
With the first issue of IMAGINOS PLUS we plan to continue this legacy by giving visionary voices an opportunity to show their mettle on our projects as well as their own creator owned work.
The current visionaries Im talking about include.
Dimitris Moore,Cassie Henry,Gary Mitchell, and CJ Howlett. I met the first two artists at last years Detroit Fanfare and this year Motorcity Conrespectively. I knew I wanted to work with them the minute I saw their work. So I showed the rest of Imaginos and they agreed.
Gary and CJ I met on Deviant Art, I saw there work and again, knew they had the inking chops and Unique colors respectively to bring something extra ordinary to the cause.
Returning from last time are veterans Ylenia Di Nopoli, Shauna Grant, Ka Xiong and Brandon Clark. I found Ylenia's work on Deviant Art and she fit exactly the vision I had for how Requiem needs come across. Shauna I met a Youmacon and new then that her playful and vibrant style would make Candy Coated pop color-wise.
Back in 1995 we came together because of shared philosophies as it relates to comics, anime, hong kong cinema and visual story telling. So its no accident that Ka and Brandon would be coming in to lend some ink assists to truly make this anthology not just and Imaginos Workshop project but a bonifide DRUNKENSTYLE JOINT!.
So far we have managed in just one days launch to pull in 13 percent of our 5800$ Goal!!!!
We have also managed to get named to Kicktraq's no 3 spot for HOT COMIC KICKSTATER CAMPAIGNS in the last few hours.
However, if we are going to make our vision a reality we need your help. Small donations in mass help make goals as easily as large ones. So go check out our project and help it along.LET's KEEP THAT MOMENTUM GOING!!!!!
