Hi gang,

I am looking to employ the services of anyone that would be able to produce a very high end final product in a 3D environment. Here is an example of the kind of product I will be expecting:



If that image doesn't display, direct link HERE.

This is for a personal project that is dedicated to a friend of mine that died quite some time ago. He wrote an AMAZING series of stories based on battletech and it starred all his friends as main characters. He was never able to complete the series and died of complications during a asthma attack before age 20. I have one of the only proofs of his story (he and I were roomates) and I have long wanted to scan in all the pieces and basically publish his work in a formal book that I will send to our old friends and his father. His father has known for a long time that I was planning to do this, and I even have a foreword from him to publish the piece.

So, I want to find a high end artist to design the cover art, which I would like to feature a group of several mechs with the proper emblems and paint schemes set on a battle field with smoking barrels and the whole nine yards. We may even discuss some artwork for inside the book depending on your skills and rates.

If you would like to apply for this, I would need you to PM me or send an email to me at info at pixel2life dot com and provide links to your portfolio, delivery turn around times and rates. No beginner artists here please, I need someone who can do this project justice, it's very dear to me.

Thanks in advance,
Dan

That's a nice thing you're doing for him Faken. He was troo young to die.

Thats really good you have been planing to do this dan m8
if i had been any good with 3D i would have done it without a secand thought

Anyway really i hope you get some ppl to help you out with this one

Extremely nice of you Dan! If I could design in 3D, I would definately help you out.

Good luck with it!

I can do 3d stuff, but probably not as well as you would like,

good luck with this Dan

=/ something I'd gladly help on if it wasn't for 3 big glitches.

1) I'm swamped in work right now
2) I'm about to reformat soon
3) I don't even have 3DS max anymore, I'm planning on getting it soon again though as I need it to get into the college I want into.

Toughfull idea though, really hope it turns out.

Good luck Dan, I hope it goes well

The guys at Axhibition could easily do the art.

Could you be any more of a dedicated friend? Kepp it up

Hey,
I'd definately be willing to help. I think it's a great idea for your friend. I'm not interested in pay as such am just looking for a new challenge and think this would be great to undertake. I'd be willing to show you my artwork, I specialise in photoshop and painting (realism). I can work to a tight scheduale and would try to get the illustration back to you as soon as possible. If you are interested please email me at...

PS. This is my first time on this forum (hence why my first attempt at posting went wrong)

thumbs up
i really admire u
great thing ur doing for your friend
will u be my friend too?

what ever happened to this anyways? did you get it done in the end dan?

No not yet... I'm waiting for some additional content from the father and I'm going to get the text finalized before I do the cover art work, and I'll probably doing it myself. It would be cheaper to build some maquettes (I'm a model builder), photograph them in my studio and just photoshop them for the cover

Dan

Oh DAMN! I ain't got maya again yet since I switched to the Mac.. bugger! and I do mean BUGGER!

Dan if you're still interested in doing this, there are some AWESOME 3D Kids over at http://www.turbosquid.com/Forum/Index.cfm they live for 3D Art, should take a look man.

I hope this works out for you, i know what its like to lose someone close to you at a young age.

Good luck and show us the final result!!

if a guy willing to even bother to help a lost friend, he shall be the blood brother of the lost friend.
Fear not your friend in heaven will definitely look over you in this project.

All the best!!!!!!!!!

If you make into a movie oso, it will definitely be a powerpact show. Make it even better than matrix.
