Artist for Rent!

#1 Post by spacedcase » Wed Jan 04, 2006 2:04 am

And by rent, I mean free. I'm an artistic type student, looking for a good game in need of artists. I've looked around at websites, but a lot of them are out of date, so who knows if they still need someone? I'd like to offer my services to a good project in need of an artist. Here are some sketches I did, the first three specifically for this thread, the last two just random Star Wars pictures. 'Sketch' means 5-20 minutes to draw, and obviously not finished product.

If you have a project that seems promising, I'll gladly produce a piece of color art for you as a real example. I can also do backgrounds (well, I do set design, which leads me to believe I could do backgrounds for an adventure game.  ;) )

Onto the pictures!

I'm not the greatest, but I'll try! More importantly, I love adventure games. Thanks for looking. :)

Impressive. Can you also do sprite art?

I've never tried. I should probably add that this would be my first foray into the world of game-making... :p

It should be as simple as drawing each character animation frame and then scaling it down after coloring it. Either way, your artwork is impressive! If I was working on a game I'd hire you for close-ups or talking character animations....but...I'm not....so I can't ;). Can't wait to play the game you'll be making art for, though!

I'm intrigued to see a background/landscape scene that you'd make. Any chance of whipping one up?

Gah, so many PMs! Sorry, I got distracted, a little by a new project at work, but mostly by The Movies, which is a very fun game. I drew up a background, and I'll try to get it scanned in today. Someone asked about coloring, so here is a little sample. Just a section of the picture, the full thing is a couple of Renaissance-era con artists gloating over their loot.  I'm not always keen on outlining, but the clean, sort of 'popping out' cartoon style seemed nice for these two characters, so I ran with it. When she's done, there will be a hand and background and fancy necklace she's showing off. :)

I love big lips. <3
