Ask Jolly Jack!

well on the inquisitive nature of my brain, how much does a Jolly Jack commission run? Or perhaps an area I can be directed to so I may find out for myself?

Because honestly I feel it might be worth a high cost for some personalized JJ art.

Just completed a 10 page commission.
I have 3 more outstanding commissions to finish.
5 more pages fo do on the Alaska Rhodes comic.
14 more pages to do on a lovecraftian horror comic.
20 more pages to do on little victory.
I have to prepare my custom christmas cards for this year.
1 birthday card to draw.
40 illustrations are required for my pulp adventure novella.
And I need to draw this week's Sequential Art strips.

No....not busy at all.....

Now I feel bad to complain about my homework
You're the first person I know heard of that draws birthday/christmas cards. I'm sure the other person will appreciate it very much

Although I wonder how the cards you draw look like. Having seen your drawings on DA/sketchbooks, I'm guessing it'll have some amazing Sequential? art on the cover.

Also, the author of 4 comic strips and a web novel? Hats off to you man, take care of your health >.<

Average pin-up, lineart only, tallies in at £30GBP.
Price may vary depending on detail.
DON'T ask for one right now, though. I'm not takeing any extra work on.

Jack, how do you make money then? You seem to sell stuff like for 1£, I mean...what do you do? I doubt you have a like a casual job? I assume that you are fully living off your concept art right?

I would say those prices are very reasonable compared to others. However you don't state exactly what content equates to what. I know you say price varies based on content, but other commissioners tate how much a piece costs if it has more than one character, if it's colour, a sequence or if it's got adult content.

How about posting up a commission board on DA or something? Just say when it's closed off or whatever. I'm sure more advertising will mean more coin for you, which is never a bad thing.

Not a problem kind sir. I merely thank you for said information and now begin to plot as I

A: have to figure out how much 30GBP is in USD (If that's worth anything anymore the bleeping government hacks (EDIT: oh around fifty bucks or so. Yeah that's reasonable.) and then

B: What the heck would I ask for? So many things...

ANYWAY: So all that said, thanks Jack. I'll keep an eye out for when your not incredibly busy and then probably figure out question B.

Mr.Jackson, could you elaborate why you are angered that your community likes the hamster?

But wouldn't a ninja hamster riding a shark on fire would be awesome? Or better yet, a flaming ninja hamster riding in the bosom of a wet semi naked amazonian on a shark on a FIGHTER JET would be absolutely brilliant.

Maybe we could loose the shark. and the jet. Yeah the hamster could go too.

Okay i just want the wet semi naked amazon.

Don't be silly Jack, who doesn't like a perverted hamster that has a robot that can generate 1000,000 views in minutes with her body, and carry you on her boobs? Silly...silly person to think such silly things

Questions on your ebook stuff.

Is paypal still supporting your sales anymore? I've heard they don't now.

I Read you were pondering a "little book of Chloe". Would that be ebook?

And finally if I decided to do my own little Chloe comic, what would you think of that? Cuz I feel like just doing one out of curiosity.

I use paypal for some content, but I can't for other stuff.

If I did compile all the Chloe Art, it'd be hardcopy only.

Fan-comics of any of my characters are always welcome, but it's unlikely they will be considered canon.

I'm sure I could write up something wholesome and fun for her to get tangled up in.

Somehow the words wholesome, fun, and tangled mixed with Chloe just doesn't sound innocent in the least.

I would admit a Chloe comic book with say a few comics to put around the many Chloe art would be a buy for me. As would more SA books.

Don't worry. I've got too much respect for Jack to whore out his characters above anything PG13.

Chloe only PG13? Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

Jack tried a Chloe comic a few years back. It was certainly not smut material

Ah, I was introduced to her a bit differently then..

No she was originally pinup stuff but she also got a minicomic

1) How did Chole meet Sky?

2)What characters are you looking forward to the most in the new Batman Arkhman City? And who are looking forward to punching in the face the most? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-V1ZF5cNYCs

3) And what is the name of this character? http://jollyjack.deviantart.com/gallery/?q=riddle#/dxly69

Quick one, JJ, do your anthro characters usually have 4 or 5 toes? For future reference, because I've seen it fluctuate, particularly with Chloe, love her to death.

Exhibit A:


Subject B:

I'm not sure if you've been asked this. But are you planning a How to Play of Minecraft? I know I'd love to see that.

1 - Probably when Sky was looking for private funding. Not written that story in detail, yet.

2 - In all honesty; I've not given Arkham City that much thought. There are other games on the horizon that look more interesting.

3 - She's just a Sphinx. Random. No name.

She has 5 toes. I just get sloppy sometimes.

Yes, there will be a HTP of Minecraft....just as soon as they finish making it!

On the subject of Chloe, how well is she known in her fictional world? Does she make TV appearances? Does she set up charities? Is she known as a man eater judging on her hornyness? Or is she a potential Howard Hughs recluse with delusions of grandeur who gets increasingly paranoid about the outside world?

Chloe is the CEO of Sinclaire Global, a massive Computer and Technology Multinational.
Fame level is that of Bill Gates: Most know the name, but few know anything about the individual beyond their business reputation.
So; Chloe is known as a financial whizz rather than a boarderline (maybe total) nymphomaniac.
