FUNDING:   

                                                      

     *UPDATE*

​

      LOCUS - Archetype Implosion just received it's first significant pledged tax deductible donation towards the fiscal sponsorship program through Fractured Atlas! This is real exciting because it gives me the opportunity to work exclusively on 12-15 character and creature maquettes in a years time. These maquettes not only legitimize the graphic novel project, they help facilitate illustrative storytelling consistency throughout the book series, will be photographed in custom built dioramas for one-of-a-kind hardcover artwork, as well as being used for dynamic displays at Comic Cons, as few if any other comic creators are sculpting their designs as maquettes.

I'm grateful and know I've earned this opportunity through the sheer merit of my work. LOCUS - Archetype Implosion takes flight!

 

Do you not like the current political environment in this country? Make a tax deductible donation to my project through Fractured Atlas and you can safely redirect your hard earned tax dollars into the arts. Learn more about fiscal sponsorships at:
