Search for Manga/Anime Artists

Jimbo808

Hey Guys,
This is one of my first posts here (I've actually put up this post before, to little or no interest!!)

Anyway, I'm huge fan of anime and manga. In fact, I'm very curious about Japanese culture in general. I really enjoy the styles of Cyber/Steam punk and of course, anything from the Studio Ghibli style. Films such as: Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Vampire Hunter D have really sculpted my cinematic tastes and I really feel the have yet to be surpassed. The film that has left it's most recent impression on me is "SteamBoy". Styllistically it is breathtaking and I think is severely underated. I mention these facts purely to illustrate my own likes/dislikes of the japanese animation genre.

Now to business: I have been searching Dublin (and further) for an accomplished and talented manga artist for quite some time, but to no avail. The reason being a project which I feel is both highly interesting and lucrative for all parties involved (I will not enter into details at this point). What I am looking for, however, is someone who is passionate, talented and above all dedicated to the manga/anime style (specialising in Cyber/Steam Punk styles) The project offers both employment and notoriety to those involved.

Not to sound too much like a dodgy pyramid scheme! ( ) but if anyone out there is available/interested in discussing this further, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time, either by PM or my email address:

So if you are a design student, professional illustrator or just a fan, once you have the talent and skill to draw specific styles based around the Japanese artwork of anime/manga, please contact me.

P.S. If anyone on this web board has any suggestions that will help my search please feel free to let me know. Thanks
