Title: graphic artists urgently needed!
Post by: Micha1701 on November 19, 2003, 11:58:57 AM

Hi!

We urgently need more graphic artists for our game project. There are many units (ships, tanks, infantry, etc.) and buildings (church, industry, harbour, etc.) to paint. Also our GUI should have a redesign...

Here is a screenshot of the current Alphaversion:

This game is a mix out of CIVILIZATION and COLONIZATION. More Information on our Homepage:
Realms of Power Homepage (http://www.RealmsofPower.de.vu)

When we don´t get more help, this project will fail (and I don´t want that it fail...)

There seems to be a big shortage of Gfx artists in Amiga land :-(
I have been looking for texture artists/3D modellers/animator, and no success.

Seems there are lots of coders still on the Amiga but good graphicians are few and far between.

I can only help in 3D animation.
If you are interested, mail me.

micha:Scenic is the GFX team on amiga, all talented gfx people in one team who work for other teams , its a scene oriented team.

Scenic amiga in google should probably give you some answers.

The game looks great, and I would have loved to help out, but due to working and studying at the same time, my spare time is very limited  :-(  

Besides, I've mostly been using Brilliance (pixeling) and it's a pain to use together with the scandoubler. Anyone that can recommend a program to replace Brilliance with?

Damn, feel guilty already...

If you're intending to sell the game, then don't forget that Creation Studios (http://www.creationstudio.co.uk/) have offered to help with GFX (see this article (http://www.amigaflame.com/amicrst.htm)).

I'll offer conceptual sketches, but you're on your own for the graphics. Sadly, I don't use my Amithlon box now, since I had a hard drive crash. :cry: As soon as I get my replacement drive, I might be able to help with the 2D, but most of my graphics are pen and ink, transferred to photoshop.

It's a great looking game. I'd love to see it in all it's glory some day.

lempkee : when did you send us a message ?  we havn't heard anything from you.. i only noticed this thread by accident..:)

micha:"Sorry, but who or what is SCENIC?
           And where can I find him/them?"

Hi micha - scenic was founded pixSCN and myself a few years ago, and is a pure gfx-group. Currently we have 12 members - high quality 2d and 3d-graphicians.

Most of the scenic-members are making gfx/design as their full-time job, either in game-companies or as freelancers.

Scenic is a fun project where these graphicians work for free - providing gfx to other demogroups on amiga and pc. We do not make gfx to commercial projects - only scene-related productions.


At the moment we are working on a gfx-theme based on 1920'ies gangsters. Our homepage is not ready yet, but it will be put online eventually.

Here is a link to one of our productions :
http://ada.planet-d.net/showdemo.php?demoid=213&PHPSESSID=f34f5903324186fd0ba3efed2136b613

Im afraid Scenic as a group isn't able to help you with this game-project. As i said, most of the members are making games full-time - and making game-related gfx in their sparetime too would be a bit overkill ;)

Still, good luck with your game-development! the screenshot looks sweet! :)

best regards
fuskoSCN

Hi lempkee

just checked my PM-box here at amiga.org - the last message i got from you was several months old :)

Also rechecked my mailbox.. nothing there either... seems as if none of your messages arrived.

best regards
