iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

You could start with a short pilot chapter and see how the pacing feels visually. That way, you could experiment with both formats without having to abandon the novel you've already been developing! 3/3

Dark fantasy can work incredibly well in comics. especially when it comes to atmospheric environments, dramatic battles, horror, and character expressions. You wouldn't have to commit to illustrating the entire story right away, either. 2/3

I think you could explore a hybrid approach! You could continue developing the story as a novel while picking some of its most intense or visually powerful moments to adapt into a short comic. 1/3

How do you all manage to get here before the bots? 😂 Anyway, I’m curious! How long has the campaign been running, and what’s your friend’s dragon monster’s backstory?

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 17h

You should just start and give it a try instead of overthinking it! Make it a part of your life, and I’ll support you as an artist. What kind of story were you thinking of writing that you’ve been putting off?

I hope this opportunity is still open and I get selected! This is right up my alley, and projects like these are rare to find. Thank you,

Your dark fairytale direction sounds really interesting! I specialize in fantasy environments and creature art, and I’d love to be considered for Downrooted. Here’s my portfolio: www.artstation.com/emilyjackson01 Which category are you prioritizing first? 1/2

The scenes, shots, and frames needed. A project of this length can take around 2–3 months, depending on the complexity, so we could also discuss an installment payment plan if that works better for you. 3/4

Are you thinking of frame by frame animation, or do you have another style in mind? Also, do you already have a storyboard prepared, or would you need one created first? When I work on animation projects, having a script and storyboard is essential because they help determine. 2/4

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 17h

Hey! I can’t explain the entire process here in a comment, but I can give you a general idea! If you’re interested, feel free to DM me, and we can discuss everything in more detail. For an animation under 3–4 minutes, the approach would depend on the style and complexity of the project. 1/4

I love the historical field-guide aesthetic you're going for! I'd be interested in creating a fully human-made version while keeping your original text and the overall vintage look. Would you be open to discussing the layout and illustration details?

I really like the idea of Umbriel lying on a star-chart tapestry, especially the contrast between the silent sword and the light escaping through her clenched fist. The combination of celestial symbolism, ancient runes, and her anxious expression could make for a really atmospheric cover. 1/2

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

I would love to work on this Project, I'll work within your budget and create the kind of artwork you're searching for. I'm also very familiar with this style. www.artstation.com/artwork/5Wl04z

What if the old visual language stayed intact, but the creature itself came from somewhere completely unexpected? That kind of contrast is exactly what I’d love to explore here. I work in detailed black-and-white ink, especially with strange creatures and natural-history-inspired linework. 1/2

Honestly, I don’t think it’s silly at all! Sometimes seeing your own character brought to life can make you even more excited to finish the book. What’s the character like?

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I’m also mentioning a few of my clients here, whose album covers I’ve created in different styles. @scarletvmitchell.bsky.social @jranger1997.bsky.social And I can’t show the cover I made for @sbakelar.bsky.social yet because I don’t have permission to share it. Thank You.

I’d love to throw my hat in the ring! I’m a professional book cover artist and I don’t use generative AI in my artwork. I’ve worked with authors on fantasy, dark fantasy, and paranormal-style covers, and I’d be happy to be considered for future projects. I’ve attached a few examples of my work. 1/2

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

what kind of visual direction are you imagining for the other albums? I’d love to see if my work would be a good fit before I bother you with a portfolio. Thank You.

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Your current cover already has such a strong atmosphere, the lighting and sense of scale really caught my eye. I’d love to throw my hat in the ring for the other album covers too. I’ll spare you another DM from a random account. 1/2

I’m intrigued by the faux book cover idea What part of the reference cover are you most interested in recreating the composition, typography, or overall atmosphere?

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

If you’re comfortable sharing, could I see your rough ideas or read what you’ve already written? I’d love to get a feel for what you have in mind and see if we’re thinking along the same lines. I might also be able to help you develop the ideas further and explore some different directions with you!

Emily @emily-jack.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

So I’d love to hear more about your series when you’re ready to share. I’m also 100% human made no AI. I’ve attached a few relevant samples below! What kind of visual direction are you imagining for the series more character focused, painterly, or folklore mythology inspired?

Backgrounds are actually my specialty! I’ve worked on backgrounds for quite a few games, so I’d definitely be interested in hearing about your scene. And don’t stress too much about the budget. I can work with a very reasonable price. What kind of scene did you have in mind?

Would you like the Kingsguard costume recreated as closely as possible to the reference images? I’d love to discuss the price over DM! I offer pocket friendly rates. Since your DMs are closed, I commented here probably for the best, or the bots would’ve beaten me to it. Thank You,
