This is what needs doing:

~ Portraits of Prominent Guild-Members [front page]
Sakuneko-chan
~ Group image of several guild-members before an majestic airship (e.g. photograph style)
~ Illustrations of the Guild-City itself (for the daring)
~ All manner of banners and the like
~ Anything else you can think of.


~

With regards to the ongoing changes to the guild, one thing I'd really like to do — particularly over the summer when I will have far too much time on my hands — is re-vamp the visuals of this guild. I have quite grand plans forming in my mind, including a new guild banner and a new front page image - which will be incorporating a directory to all the different subforums (spiffy, no?).

To help with this, I am looking for any artists who would be willing to help with this project. Whilst I can hopefully manage to do the banners and such (such as they are), one of the things I would really like to add to the guild are pieces of art.
Most notably, an illustration of the guild-city itself; but also portraits of notable members. If possible, short comics for each of the sub-forums would be good too.

If anyone is willing to help out as an artist, please feel free to either PM me or post below. It'd be helpful if you included what sort of art you'd like to provide, and/or any samples you might want to share.
Likewise, if anyone has any other thoughts of input please do share them. This is your guild as much as mine, seems only fair you get a say in what it looks like.

I could do something.
It would take some time, and I would need a good description of the city's structure and looks for each of the notable members that they would like drawn.

I don't think I could do the comics, but then again I have never tried that.

I would love to draw for the guild! If you need any assistance don't hesitate to ask.

I'd be most comfortable drawing portraits since I tend to draw people most. I could attempt to do a comic, I have some experience but not much. An illustration of the guild would be more difficult but I dare say with a bit of time I may be able to manage it, though it may be simpler to get someone who's more at ease with buildings to draw it.

You know what my art looks like already but I suppose if anyone else wishes to look: http://ghostgriffin.deviantart.com/

yeah sure, i'll help gladly!

im good with perspective and objects, but not as good with people (too many odd curves and shapes!)... have a look at the train in the 1st panel on page 1 on the "Comic" page, as an example.

Thanks muchly for your offers biggrin [I'm still open to more, btb] - I'll tell ye when I decided properly what needs doing; but for the moment more pressing matters are taking up a wee bit too much of my time.

I'd be happy to assist, Captain!
I'll have a monsterous amount of time on my hands as well, so any artwork I could do would be great (especially seeing as I'm going to be selling my designs this summer for money, so I figure it's good practice!)

Also, if you want any samples besides what's in my signature, I'd be more than happy to send some to you.

Wonderful! It's good I did then.
I think the guild will look fantastic with more art! Especially with all the talented people volunteering here. ~It's good to have variation. 3nodding

@Behatzlacha-S Aren't some people already working on a guild comic? I'm a little hazy on the details but there's a forum for it.

I just went to have a look and I love the idea.

I would gladly volunteer my artistic services. I rather need creative motivation at the moment, and things to fill my summer free-time with, so! Shall help if needed. 3nodding (not to mention i've not really been on gaia lately . . . art-making could serve as a bit of atonement for abandoning this guild for a while, perhaps?)

Thank you very much. smile
I wasn't sure quite what to think of it; so currently it's on a random rotation with the previous B&W banner, the new brass/black banner, and the new banner w/smoke. [Smoke good or bad?]
I was struck by inspiration to emulate (roughly) the sort of name plates one would get on a steam locomotive [although I did give it a more interesting font]. Originally it was silver and black, but I thought that a bit too dull, so opted for a brassish sort of colour instead.

Goodness! Thank you very much for your offer! Thanks to all of you! biggrin

Why, it seems I really do have more people volunteering than I expected, I'm not sure I have enough things to be drawn!
