Don't know if this is the right thread for this. But I'm writing this story that's a series, will likely end up as a comic. Or I could win a cosmic lottery and Amazon will make it a TV show. I did a ton of AI concept art because me no draw, but am now hiring some concept artists to draw the two leads. I have these characters' appearances designed right down to the backpack straps, I just can't actually draw poo poo. If my story got to a point where it could make money I absolutely want to compensate those artists further, especially if the art could be used in merchandise. BUT I'm just paranoid they could pull some stuff like "Oh I actually invented those characters, please meet my lawyer." It's not even about the money, it's about control of the thing I'm making. Is this even a thing I should worry about now (I don't even have a full script yet), or are there things I can do to protect myself?

Ok, I'll just post what I want and see who bites. I have these two characters who are basically action movie heroes, and I did want action scenes/concept art, but I would like to start with a picture of them just walking together, talking and chilling. I have a bunch of general idea concept pics I made with AI but want a real artist to actually make stuff to my specifications. I have a bunch of these pics, a diagram and a document of how I want them to be positioned (facial expressions, clothes, what body part is doing what, etc.) Not really looking for anime (unless it's maybe a more "real" style, definitely not chibi style and all that). Something more like concept art, or painting, or even photoreal-ish. Please provide examples of work, links to websites etc. Attached is a picture I saw that was the inspiration for wanting this made. That's the vibe I want.

Raenir Salazar posted:Actually just remembered to mention; only semi-related but, unless the amount of money is relatively small and thus not a big deal, in my experience if the individual you're considering has a good social media presence; i.e they're active on at least one of twitter/instagram, and have a website portfolio either a weebly/devientart/artstation/pixiv/etc and yeah they have a decent number of works posted in my experience its rare that this will be a scammer. Quote for new page. Roman posted:Ok, I'll just post what I want and see who bites.
