Children’s Western Adventure Comic
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’m putting together a kid-friendly adventure told in the lively, dynamic style of classic Western comics and I’m looking for a creative partner who can handle both the visuals and the flow of the story. The tone should be fun and fast-paced rather than gritty, with clear, expressive artwork that instantly hooks children while still feeling true to the bold lines and dramatic framing Western books are known for.
Here’s how I picture our collaboration: we’ll refine the concept together, lock in a cast of memorable heroes and villains, build a short episodic plot full of cliff-hangers, then move on to rough layouts, detailed pencils/inks, colours, and lettering. If you prefer working in Clip Studio Paint, Procreate, Photoshop, or traditional pen-and-ink before scanning, that’s fine—as long as the finished pages arrive in layered, print-ready, high-resolution files and a separate web-friendly version.
Deliverables I’ll review before final approval:
• Character sheets with turnaround views and colour palette
• A thumbnail storyboard covering every page
• Final coloured and lettered comic pages (print-ready CMYK + RGB web versions)
• Source files for any custom logos, sound-effect fonts, or background patterns
Please share a link to previous children’s or all-ages adventure comics you’ve completed in a Western style so I can be sure our sensibilities match. If you have questions about page count or format, let’s talk—flexibility is built in, but the end result must delight young readers and leave them eager for the next issue.
