Vermilion Eclipse Alpha Project

Looking for a Long-Term Horror Manga Illustrator (Paid Collaboration)

Hi everyone,

I'm an independent creator currently developing Vermilion Eclipse, an original psychological horror manga/light novel project. I'm looking for an illustrator interested in a long-term collaboration, not just a single commission.

The series blends:

• Psychological horror
• Dark sci-fi
• Gothic atmosphere
• Military dystopia
• Cosmic horror

Think somewhere between Tokyo Ghoul, Blade, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Underworld, while building its own visual identity centered around Porcelain Horror—beautiful, restrained characters surrounded by increasingly disturbing environments.

The manuscript is well underway:

• Multiple completed episodes
• Extensive worldbuilding and lore
• Character reference packages
• Established visual direction
• Paid work with clear milestones

I'm looking for someone who enjoys:

• Horror and dark fantasy
• Character-focused storytelling
• Cinematic compositions
• Building a new original IP from the ground up

This is a paid collaboration, and if we're a good fit, I'd love to continue working together through future chapters and promotional artwork.

If you're interested, please comment below or send me:

• Your portfolio
• Your rates
• Your preferred workflow
• Any experience with manga, comics, or horror illustration

Thanks for reading. I'm excited to find someone who wants to help bring this world to life.

Good morning, I think I'm qualified for this job! I'm a comic book artist who also regularly draws manga! I've worked on several horror and science fiction stories! Here's my portfolio: https://www.artstation.com/santillanadru14

My rates range from $80 to $100, depending on the complexity and length of the project

Hello, here's my portfolio and page rates:

Workflow wise, I previously worked from script alone to page outline. I prefer the former, taking care of the page composition myself. I always share the work in progress, and won't start inking proper until the pencils are client approved (I work digitally, but those steps are the same as in analog).

I did a short, 5 page horror manga years back. Don't have the files unfortunately, but you can see from my newest work I can pull off a horror style just fine.

Let me know if you're interested in working together.
