Hello Nairaland, I'm trying to put together a project and for now I'm hoping to do a survey of skills and their costs. So anyone with information can reply. It will be much appreciated.

Straight to the point. I'm looking to create a comic series.

Are there comic creators in nigeria?

What tools do they generally use? Or better what tools are best used in terms of software and hardware?

How much would it cost to hire per 30 pages of comic? Or would it be better on a monthly pay? Or could I just do a contract of a seasons worth of comic? Simply what's the payment mode and what's the general pricing like?

How long will it take to create 30 pages of comic?

Replies will be much appreciated. Thanks

Hello,

There are freelance individuals and studios who can make a comic for you. The price differs by individual or studio.
Many artist will prefer to be paid per pages, you will hardly get anyone doing monthly.

Also, you have to understand that comic book production is most often handled by more than one artist; the penciler, inker, colorist, panelist, letterer, etc. In some cases it can also be done by just one person who happens to be an all-rounder.

I do illustrations and comic, you can buzz me for clarity or more information.
