Shahab U.
Comic Book Artist | Indie Series & Graphic Novels
If you're building a comic series, graphic novel, or visual story and need an artist who can carry your world from script to finished page, consistently, issue after issue, you're in the right place! I'm Shahab, a 2D comic artist with 8 years of professional experience. I'm currently the artist on Tales from Davidstown, an ongoing supernatural horror webcomic series on Patreon. Where I handle everything from character design and panel composition to cover illustration. I know what it takes to keep a series visually consistent and emotionally gripping across dozens of pages. What I specialize in: — Sequential comic art & manga-style storytelling — Character design for ongoing series (consistency across issues) — Comic book covers & splash pages — Horror, dark fantasy, and supernatural genres — Panel layout, pacing, and visual narrative My process: I start with rough sketches to lock in composition and flow. Once approved, I move to clean linework and full color. I keep clients in the loop at every stage to minimize revisions and keep the project moving. Why long-term clients choose me: My Upwork track record is 100% Job Success. Every client, every project. I've worked on horror comic series with budgets over $2,700 and delivered on time without losing the creative vision. I communicate clearly, hit deadlines, and treat your story with the same seriousness you do. If you're a writer, creator, or indie publisher looking for a committed comic artist for your next series, let's talk.
