Hello there,
I noticed that alot of you are very talented and so this gave me an idea to ask here if anyone would be willing to help.
I am looking to find an artist pro bono who can draw the concept art for me. My drawing is above average but no where close to what a good concept artist is (which many of you are). Since my team only compromises of coders and modelers and i draw the best, i was assigned the task of concept artist till we could find a real one.

I am aiming to make a total conversion mod of an old game from '99 called "Starsiege: Tribes". The idea is basically futuristic warfare. There are an assortment of weapons, items and vehicles as you would find in most war games but you get to choose different armors which each come with their pros and concs. You have the ability to use jetpacks and become frictionless with the ground, which in combination allow you to pickup tremendous momentum and speed and brings forth fast paced gameplay.

This is the artwork from the game manuel to give you an idea of the style of the game:

Since i have been drawing my own stuff, here is some of it (i am not able to draw a full idea i need to break it down):

This project will require immense amounts of drawings. Drawings from vehicles, to weapons, to buildings, to armors (there are 3 types of armor - light, medium and heavy), the different style of each faction/clan/tribe (only 2) and so forth.

I will not be expecting you to have to come up with the ideas on your own. Most of the time i will be drawing my concept and asking you to make it "better".

Of course, expecting you to merely copy my crappy drawings is insulting to an artist and so you will be given creative abilities but in some instances I will require you to draw something a certain way because we are "recreating" the same game basically.

My email, if anyone is interested, is david.micalef@gmail.com

Please send some of your artwork as well.

Thank you for your time and i hope some of you can help me.
