See you in the funny pages

I'm in need of an artist that is capable of drawing comic book style drawings based on some photos taken at the Packard Plant downtown. My friend's birthdays are coming up and I think it would be a nice personal gift to give them. There are four photos that would need to be drawn. If I'm correct in suggesting the medium, I would like it to be done in a marker. Do not repsond if you cannot draw like a comic book artist.

Dear Craig

I am writing in response to your ad for a Comic Book artist. I am very interested in taking this project on, and being a fan of the Packard Plant myself I may be of some service to you. I would need to see the photos first before I could draw them. When you say comic book style are you suggesting SuperHero/Spiderman art? I do not do superhero art per say, however I do work in comics. I have been a guest artist for Tom Wilson on the comic strip Ziggy several times, I have studied under Bill Keane of Family Circus fame in 1992 at the Comicon convention in a 45 min seminar/workshop detailing facial expressions, and I have had some semi lucrative success with my very own online comic Tuggin' Peters. I am currently between publishers and it's a real pain in the whoodily to get syndicated, so I am in need to take on projects such as yours for some extra bones. Anywho, I could probably knock this out for just a couple of hundred bucks, plus supplies, and mileage as I will need to visit the Packard Plant for inspiration. I will not be using markers, I'm thinking just a #2 pencil is gonna look real nice and lend itself to encompass some real entricate shading work. So just e-mail those photos and we can get started.
