Can You Draw Planes? How's Your French?A major French comic book series is in need of an artist.

Tanguy And Laverdure is the most famous aviation comics series in France.It was created by Jean-Michel Charlier and Asterix's Albert Uderzo Asterix, and later drawn by and Jijé, the man who taught Moebius.

So, you know, no pressure.

It has generated a TV series and a feature film, Les Chevaliers du Ciel (Knights of Sky) and is a favourite with the French Air Force.

It's current artist has been a little on the slow side and the publisher wants to profit from the current aviation comics boom in France.

Yes, there is one.

So the publisher is running a compeition to find the new ongoing artist, with the Cartoon Festival Chambery, in Octoebr with a panel of judges and comics professionals. The winner will be offered a publishing contract and a scripy.

But artists who can draw planes are well advised to try for it!

Gary Erskine? Chris Weston? Bueller?

Anyone who is up for it can get the rules here.
