I'm looking for someone to make some illustrations for a ttrpg manual I've written up. picrel it's the cover draft. there's space among the instructions and card definitions for a couple of drawings.I realize I'm basically asking for an artist to work for free but I thought it would be fun to collaborate with someone a bit on what to draw, where precisely to put it, maybe even just get someone else's eyes on this thing before I publish it anywhere.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VCKYiiYwG0Anvi91sGhXFI7nSVqVuVJU/view?usp=sharingthis is the current draft. it's pretty much done except for the art and a couple of touchupsi'm yinnytbh on discord, please add me if you're interested. we can also do email or talk here or whatever else.thank you :)
>>97992488continued:you can find it all in the PDF but the game is essentially an RPG where you build a diary/scrapbook for a set of characters. you play with a regular 52-count playing card deck and just reference the manual for the card definitions so you don't need anything to start playing except for something to write and draw on.it's inspired by The Quiet Year, but i really hated a lot of TQY's mechanics and i don't think building a community is as fun as having a traditional group of characters going through a story, so this is my take on that.i didn't mean the original post to come off as begging but that's how it came off because i reposted from /wsr/ :) mostly i'm just looking for feedback and potential interest and just to share this in general
fuck it i'll just post it all here
>>97992488so you're asking for art....for free?
>>97992528art and feedback
and lastly
A better deal, if you can't pay by the illustration, would be to offer a slice of the profits if it takes off.
>>97992670i'm open to that but i wasn't planning on charging anything
What kind of art?
>>97994778something for the cover page to replace the dungeon meshi placeholder art and a few smaller illustrations like vignettes, simple stuff like a flower, windmill, statue, book, etc. stuff vaguely related to the content of the cards, or just a general fantasy-feel.the only thing i'm mostly set on is the cover which i thought would look good with an outlaw running towards the frame, arms full of valuables, a knight errant chasing them and a bookkeeper chasing the knight, arms full of documents that are getting scattered.any thoughts or feedback appreciated. i've been struggling to come up with what precisely should populate the pages
>>97995087you're asking for someone to do multiple days' worth of work for free?if you truly intend to keep it free of charge just fair-use some pieces you find on the web with the artists' permissions
>>97995341why do people keep saying this as if i haven't realized exactly what i'm asking? i said upfront that i know it's unreasonable but i'm putting this out there anyway just in case, and art isn't the only thing i'm after as i've also said multiple times
>>97992533hope you get it
