Today we had three illustrators come and speak to us about their work and how they came to be the illustrators that they are today.
Will Morris
Will Morris is a comic book artist and illustrator and created the fishing comic, Silver Darlings.
From the talk, he mentioned how he thought that it was good for us to experiment in our own time, find a style and technique that is best suited to us. He also, explained that when working on projects, he works big and then shrinks his work down tot he size that is required.
As far as payment is concerned when it comes to his illustrations or comics, there is little difference. For a comic, he can expect between £100-£150 per page and then for his illustrations, £100-£200 per commission.
Nick White
Nick White is another illustrator specialising specifically in comics and poster predominately for bands and music events. He has also produced some books.
Ben Newman
Ben Newman prefers to work tonally first and then add the colour. He also likes to layer up shapes to create the illustrations.
