Don't forget that mine is going to be an illustration for a 2 columns per page, 2 pages at a time rulebook.
Wha? Explain more please.

Mayhaps something along the lines of The Man with the Golden Helmet? And not the bastardized photoshoped one that I currently wear.
You want a Rembrandt reproduction?

Could you draw a forgotten beast from a world I genned in DF? Its a gigantic quadraped composed of salt, with two long curly tails and it squirms and figits.
I may try.

A silver S, with the top curve looking like a crescent moon, and a golden S, with the bottom curve looking like the sun, hooked together like a chain.
When you say bottom curve looking like the sun, do you just mean glowing bright yellow? I can't make the bottom curve of an S spherical, then it won't be an S

As in the rulebook is going to be like a normal book in that you have a left and a right page.
Each page has two columns of text.
Easier to read and good for plugging in illustrations.
Basically, just make it take up half a page vertically.

I'm guessing pretty much a square canvas size? A little bit more wide than tall or?...

Take a sheet of printer paper.
Fold it in half vertically, so that you have 4.25 by 11 inches.
That's the canvas size.

I've heard it called "hotdog style" in school.

Ok thanks, I just thought the dimensions of an instruction booklet would be much different.

Depends on the book.
I'm using a binding style similar to DnD 4e because that's what I have for reference.
The books are standard hardcover size with 2 columns per page and lots of half-page illustrations.

That's the thing, there is debate over whether he did in fact make it. The common thought is that he didn't and that some unnamed painter just had a really rockin' style. Either this or whatever you think the old green U represented.

Well, that's sort of irrelevant... Do you want me to reproduce it or paint something LIKE it?

 Something like it I suppose. I dunno, something about the word reproduction implies to me strenuous work to get it exactly the same in a sort of tedious way. I would prefer this be something you somewhat enjoy. Unless I got the annotations behind that word completely wrong.

 But yeah, something like it.

Nice artwork! Love the sci-fi stuff. :D
Can you make me a slitheroid(from Eclipse Phase)?
It's a robot with a snake-like body and a humanoid upper body. It should look vaguely female.
Here is a reference from the book. :)

Sorry, I'm still trying to find out stuff about the requests of earlier posters.

In any case, I won't be able to do much over the coming week.

Man, your art style is really good.
Nicely done.


Can you make GDI Light Infantry man in a combat pose? If you think about the weapon just put the the pulse rifle from aliens. Finish it at anytime, I've got patience.

Every other artist never got around to finish it or made something completely different. Except Kinseti, he did it nicely. Anything else you'd like to do with it is alright.

This is common, an overflowing pool of requests. Tis a thing that happened to other Art Request threads.
