I want to create Buttons and Leaderheads for a Wheel of Time Mod or Sceneario. Does anyone know where to get good Art for this kind of undertaking? It's quite hard to find in the web I only get pictures of People dressing like Aes Sedai or Guarders n this kind of stuff!
 
Try hunting for art from fantasy video games. Neverwinter Nights, Morrowind, 95% of MMORPG's. Hunt for fantasy artists like Iaichiro, Todd Lockwood, Ruth Thompson, they exist in droves. USE GOOGLE! Go to www.google.com, type in "fantasy art", you will find TONS of stuff.

Be resourceful my good man. You have the internet too. :p :)

Thx to you again,

I'll watch for stuff that fits to your Mod as well;)
But google sucks for me sadly to say. The Rest is a good idea!
 
I need some art material too for my maybe-sometime-coming mod, and I really don´t know any good artist as I don´t know anything about skinning myself.:p
It would be nice to have a list of those hiding civfavatics artists. :D Please tell me ppl if someone´s interested and really knows something about it!

Here is the best art I am able to produce:
 
Wow, kael, you've got me beat in terms of drawing. (seriously I couldn't draw a rock to save my life) All I got is my camera and a moderate amount of talent.

Thanx Ploeperpengel. All I need is a Mundungus Fletcher. Looking back at that last post, it looks a little sarcastic, but it wasn't supposed to be that way. I was just supposed to be encouraging. It was just made at 2am after compiling 3 days worth of field notes. :p

don't know that't why I opened this thread:mischief:

Lol. All I mean is that theres only a few of them who CAN and who WANT to make art and skins. BTW Kael, can you make some skins for me? You seem to have a fourth grade black belt in that stuff. :lol: Seriously, SailorLazarus´ art looks great. :goodjob:

I'm a horrible skinner and artist (despite the fine art I linked above). Most of the unit skins in Fall from Heaven were made by C.Roland and he and Chalid did most of the building skins. Woodelf also made a few of the skins that I use. So you may want to check with those folks for skinning help.
 
I want to thank you oh you godlike Kael let me kiss the ground under your feet :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:
