Does joe accept submissions and where? (hope so!)

[ovencer]

People know that joe is extremely busy. doing a lot of concept art and covers, but does he accept submissions or does he refer people?
Where can aspiring artists contact him for submissions? Submissions for his battle chasers book. To help him out or something.

Thanks!

Does he accept them?

NOPE. You can find original work from his Marvel days, although i have yet to see any Battle Chasers material. He probably still owns all of the original art, since that book is his baby.

So just keep cruising Ebay for his original work on Uncanny X-Men and some other books.

I think he means to work for. At risk of going out on a limb here, im going to assume Joe is doing freelance and works on a contract by contract basis - until he has a company of his own i doubt youll see him fielding submissions anytime soon. If you want to work in the biz, try submitting to a company, not a solo individual.

He was working at NcSoft so If you wanted to work with him you would have to submit to NcSoft and yes they probably take submissions but you have to be hella good, so you better put together a great portfolio.

If you saw him at E3 you could probably show him your art and he might hook you up like as a friend, If I remember right he got Ed McGuinness his start after Ed showed him his art at a Con..I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I read that in Wizard.

Nope, youre right Madman;). He did get Ed the hookup, i even asked Ed myself at a con a couple of years ago:).
