Introducing Outpost 51 Studio!

Outpost 51 is a studio comprised of a rag-tag gang of artists all navigating the wild frontier that is freelancing. We operate in a variety of creative fields, from comics to illustration, painting to design. We are located in Brooklyn, next to the scenic Gowanus canal and nestled under the rumbling F-train.



Our studio is part of a larger creative community, for down the hall reside Deep6 Studio (Their blog and facebook group)and Studio XOXO. Both of which are brimming with absurdly talented comic artists.

Allow me to introduce the members of Outpost 51....
