If you read the post. it's not saying you'll be hired simply from coloring this.. but that it'll get thier attention to probably look at your work.

it's probably a sort of "test " to see if you even merit.. getting test pages. But that's just a guess...
The link is also valid at the warner bros. website and the job IS posted.
I really like what you've done here splashy !

SplashColors In reply to Shadowgrail [2007-09-01 23:05:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I caught that, it's just a way for them to see how you would approach a certain artist's work...

Yeah, I already checked the link and sent in my resume/application.

Thanks for the comments.

Right on man.. hehe I've been to the wildstorm office .. nice view there i think your work is great man, I could probably lear nalot from what you know about coloring. Lets hope they send us some more to play with. at the very least.. it's just more practice

GarryHenderson [2007-09-01 19:36:58 +0000 UTC]

Looks good Splash. As I said below, I'm hesitant to do it simply because they're only wanting this one single pinup instead of sequential work. Just seems a bit weird to me.

Thanks mudcat, either way it was a cool piece to color.

GarryHenderson In reply to K-Bol [2007-09-01 19:35:25 +0000 UTC]

I'm gettin the same vibe as you E. Seems kinda weird that they'd want to hire a colorist through a pinup contest instead of looking at sequentials. I'll probably color it, but I'm not gonna really hold my breath on the validity of it simply because they're not doing a sequential contest instead.

Every single publisher out there, be it mainstream or indy, tells you that they want to see how well you do sequential work, and not to focus on pinup work for your portfolio.

liquidology In reply to GarryHenderson [2007-09-04 16:32:09 +0000 UTC]

I think the pinup will get you the foot in the door -- then they'll ask for sequentials.

I know JJ and Ale, and they're both standup guys - not to mention that they've worked with the big guy, Jim Lee for many years now. So I am sure the right people will see it.

That said, I don't know any more about this than you guys, I haven't talked to anyone down there about it.

SplashColors In reply to GarryHenderson [2007-09-01 20:55:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, not quite sure this is going anywhere, but I wanted to give it a shot nevertheless....

K-Bol In reply to SplashColors [2007-09-02 02:40:37 +0000 UTC]

yeah still looks like a fun piece to take a stab at.

lets just pray it was real wildstorm.

GarryHenderson In reply to SplashColors [2007-09-01 21:02:32 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it never hurts to take the chance. I'm just not as enthusiastic as I was when I first heard about it simply because of the sequential thing.

I can't, they need people who can actively meet with them and work on site I think. I'm in the UK.
