REQUEST: Any artists in the house?
« on: May 26, 2009, 02:23:56 am »
I'm looking to spruce up the front page of my mod: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=35736.0

And I was wondering if there were any roaming (preferably dire or giant  :P) artist creatures here that wouldn't mind giving up some of their spare time to make some signature sized pictures that I could slap on the main page.

I'd do it myself but after failing dismally to make something even remotely better than repulsive I resigned myself to the fact that I will never be a legendary screen/sketch book carver.

Here's some examples of what I'd be looking for:



except much smaller, more like this size (and maybe a bit wider):



And more colorful and/or cartoonish. If you're interested post here or send me a PM! I give anyone attempting this full creative license so go check out what the mods all about and hopefully I'll hear from you soon  :).

I might try something later this week.  I'm not terribly good at pictures of humanoids though.  I'm okay I guess, but I definitely have room for improvement in that area.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

By 'art' you mean 'MSPaint drawings,' right?

I'd help, but I can't actually draw. :I

I've started working on something, but it's still in the preliminary sketch phase.

Hey - I just made some dwarf line art for this:

It'll look better with shading and color, honest.
Is this the style you wanted? Any requests for a background?
(the final will be sig size, but its nice to work big)
EDIT
Also, I'm gonna fix that axe. That thing is hideous.
And the hand holding the shield.

I don't think that either of those is a good sig image.

Impressionable lunatic minds, you know?

Constructive criticism would be nice. Or are they unsalvageable?
