I'm looking for a concept artist to turn one of my 3D Lego models (a Lego Digital Designer file) into, well concept art. The fine details can be worked out either in this thread or if you rather through PM's.
Things like exact 1:1 is not necessary, I'll leave some aspects up to the artists' vision and or a mix of co-op'd reworking. (Things like actuators, minor details, and things of that nature.) If possible after the main concept piece is done maybe pursuing some additional variants.
I'd like to have full or semi colored (semi being just the 'mech colored.)

To clear up if unclear I am paying you for the work you are doing, this is flexible I am reasonable.

Here are some sceenshots of the build:

Can it be hand drawn or does it have to be drawn via computer program?

Doesn't really matter to me as long as it's scanned (if hand drawn), at least for a final image. If you're just doing preliminary stuff a camera should be fine.

Cool, I'll see what I can get cooked up by the end of the weekend if you want me to?

Edit: For scaling, what weight class is this mech to be?
And for posing, what speed do you want it to look like its going? Walking, running?
And just one more question; what load out is this mech carrying currently?
-I think I know the arms are Lrm's
-are the weapons on the side torsos ballistic, or energy?
Thanks,
Ace

Here's mine, you inspired me to share!

[NautilusCommand]

If anyone is still wondering if the artist spot is open; I have mechace doing his preliminary stuff atm, so I'd say no.

[Mech42Ace]

Pretty proud Im getting to do this for you, and thanks for the technical specs, that's very helpful to me.

If you don't mind me asking do you have a deviantart, or some other page where you have drawing of yours? I'm only asking because I've never seen of your work before.

Also more angles.

Thanks for the new views! I am also creating a DeviantART account as we speak.

Edit: just finished creating the account, here is my name: AGeiger42. Will be providing link in a minute as soon as I find where my gallery is.

Hope you get someone to knock it out. I simply have not had the time or inspiration to do it justice. Sorry about that, but pretty much everything is takign back seat to IRL atm.

Hey man, you're human I can understand that. It's not like I could expect you to say "Huh man i have these bills to pay, but you know what? This is more important than food/a home."
There's no hard feelings at all.

However, if you ever have the want and the time you know who to hit up.

I have to say I'm really enjoying this, this whole experience. MechAce is working hard at this and he is doing whatever he can to work with me. Thank you man.

that's how it should work. That why I enjoyed working with Kiriage on the King Crab so much, and even had foun with CarrionCrows with the Zeus.

I guess I need to do more things with you guys (all ****)

Edit: No fun allowed. Damn you auto- censoring.

is it a clan XL engine? otherwise case + XL makes hardly sense in the side torso.

also, the one thing ontop of it looks like an AMS which I miss in your list.

[Mech42Ace]

Ahh tis a BAP, I think.

makes plenty of sense in TT. It saves the rest of the mech. Remember, not everything is MWO.
