Title: Seeking Artists for a Fan TRO
Post by: JPArbiter on June 13, 2013, 10:43:17 AM
Hey Guys;

High Test and I are ALMOST done writing a short piece called "TRO 3145 Elysium"  I got all the mechs and Battle Armor Statted out and the text pieces written for 2/3rds of it.  I am still pouring over the Mobile Structure Rules and Aerospace Rules right now. .  now I just need Artwork.  some of these guys are original machines, some are updates or spins on canon designs.

I need artists for these 15 elements, Would prefer Pro Bono, willing to offer compensation to be negotiated privately.

inquire within.

Unfortunately, my "original" art skills are terrible. I can kitbash with the best, but it's a time-consuming, laborious process that I'm never totally satisfied with. Sorry.

Have you troll'ed Deviant Art for potential help? Some of those guys could cost negligible $$$.

submit a Drawing  to be considered.

in fact anyone wishing to be considered can follow this simple instruction.  show me what you can do with a WVR-7H Wolverine II.  make it look badass.

I have not trolled Deviant Art yet... need to.  this project (and all of High-Tests and my Elysium Republic stuff) is so on the back burner though it is rough.
