Maybe try approaching a couple of tattoo shops and selling the black and white designs on as tattoos? Or approaching some comic book publishers with a portfolio? Or if you're any good at writing - write your own comic books OR, if you have a friend who is good at writing - partner up with them.
There is also the option of selling prints of your artwork on places like deviantart.com. Try having your own website and market yourself as a freelance illustrator? There's money to be made if you're willing to put the effort in, but it's not going to be a get rich quick solution Personally i really like them and i think you have potential, if i ever need an illustration doing in that style, I'll come look you up ;) |

May be worth approaching a few publishers - they're often looking for new artists that have not been seen before. Try the Writers and Artists Yearbook in the first instance.

I am guessing Google is broken!
Here is a link Writers and Artists Yearbook.
