Up next...?

So I'm not sure if anyone is actually reading these posts at this point, but I figure it doesn't hurt to try posting about this here first.

Since the end of Artist Acro is coming up fast, I'm feeling around to see what I want to work on next. Really enjoying the scanlating hobby still, so I do want to continue in this space.

The two options I'm considering are (1) pick up a new series, or (2) join someone else's project as a cleaner/redrawer.

For both, I am looking for suggestions. I don't have a next series in mind like I did when I wrapped up BK and picked up AA, and I also have no idea how to go about finding groups to join in a manner that I'd feel comfortable with.

So, I'm asking you! Do you know of a dropped manga similar to BK/AA that you want to see finished? Do you want to pick up, or have picked up translating a title, but need a hand with CL/RD? Please let me know in the comments! :D

For some guidelines on what I'm looking for, see the following:

(1) New manga - I'd like to work on another shounen or shoujo manga that:

• has a few chapters already scanlated in ENG so I can get a feel for the story/style and see if I'm interested
• features some kind of fantasy/action/strategy element, similar to my other works Artist Acro and Buster Keel
• was published a while back or is obscure enough for English licensing to be unlikely (I do not want to have to drop it if it gets licensed)

(2) Joining as a CL/RD - I've never worked with strangers on manga before, so I'm looking for a group that I can test the waters with. Ideally they could tolerate a casual commitment and/or have no scheduling requirements - I clean fast and enjoy doing it, but I don't work well under pressure. For this I'm sort of envisioning another solo scanlator looking to outsource CL/RD work, or maybe a more established group who wants to add another person to an existing team of cleaners.

• I can do CL/RD for both coloured manhwa and B/W manga
• I would be willing to clean SFX
• I do not use Photoshop but I can handle .psd files
• I will not work on titles with mature themes

If you or anyone you know of is looking for a cleaner/redrawer for their projects, please let me know in the comments, and/or have them reach out to me on Mangadex (username chesterfield).

 

All right, thanks for reading and hope you have a lovely day!
