WORK HISTORY
Summary: 14+ years of experience working as a full-time freelance artist and designer in comics, film, gaming, trading cards and other related fields. http://www.RayDillon.com
Goal: To fully produce monthly comics for Marvel & DC (pencils, inks, colors, &letters). I've done full production at IDW Publishing and others, and have inked/colored/lettered for Marvel, DC, Vertigo, IDW, Image, Archie, and others.
