Aleksi Gray (Alakotila)

Picture
Aleksi makes queer fantasy romance comics, stories, and art. They  enjoy writing romance and fantasy blend stories with a particular fondness for Achillean trans masc leads who are just a little bit of a disaster.

Most of his comics and stories include a character in their late 20 to early 30s who is able to finally pursue their dream -- whether that means they are in a place where they're finally able to pursue their dream, or given space to find a dream and chase it.

Books have previously been published under a variation of P. Kotila. Webcomics are published under the name Alakotila, and assistant credits are often a variation of Alakotila or Aleksi.


Alakotila is currently an art assistant or editor for five ongoing series:
EDITOR or PROOFREADER
Awaken, by Koti Saavedra 
Pathways: The Chronicles of Tuvana, by Elaine Tipping
Castle Swimmer by Wendy Lian Martin

ART ASSISTANT
Background art:
Castle Swimmer by Wendy Lian Martin
Character flats, shading:
The Prince of Southland by Chris Geroux

Completed series Alakotila has worked on:
Counting Sheep,
 by A. Rasen (worked as editor)
Crumbs, by Danie Stirling (worked on character flats in season 2)
 Melvina's Therapy , by A. Rasen (worked as editor)
Gremoryland, by A. Rasen (worked on edits, letters, and layout for roughly half of the series)

CONTACT
Short projects I may be available for: book covers, comic covers, clothing design (particularly fantasy); comics (inking, flatting, background, editing, lettering).

Long projects I may be available for: webcomic series (as inking assistant, character flatter, background artist, lettering, or editor)

My workload is fairly steady at the moment, though I may take on projects if it feels like a good fit and if I am able to balance it into my existing workload. I love working with other comic creators, ESPECIALLY on LGBTQIA+ series that are fantasy or sci fi.
