Novel in progress, Artist requested Posted January 27th, 2014 in Art

Not much else to be said. I'm simply looking for an artist to draw up sketches of scenes from different chapters, preferably realistic.
Requests:

*Able to do backgrounds

*Detailed Characters

*Colors not Required, although who doesn't want color?

*Realistic art style

**If you can do 3-D sprites, I'll love you forever. (This skill overtakes the previous, and does not require anything else)

I know I'm asking for a dream here, but hey! Doesn't hurt to ask.

If you want to send out a sample, do it on the scene described below. Thank you for your time!

“Listen up, men.”Captain Vale shouted. An air of tension wafted through the barracks as the 27th Battalion came to attention in unison, prepared to receive orders. The captain paced slowly at the front of the large tent, his golden armor bloodied, but shimmering in the fragile light. His blade, known to the battalion as “Glamdring”, dangled loosely at his side. It would stay there until the day he died to be retrieved by a new owner. His leather officer’s cap was replaced by a black hood, which was rather odd, especially for Vale.

“We have casualties rising to the hundreds,” the Captain spoke in his normally hoarse voice. It sounded softer; more deflated than his usual stalwart self. “Yet we still haven’t gained any ground against the Grahkin militia. In fact, we’ve even lost a few of our own comrades to suicide.” A few light voices began chattering, which normally would have been infuriating to the Captain, but he continued undisturbed. “More and more Grahkin continue to swarm our weak points, each time succeeding in breaking our defenses and slaughtering a score more men, women, and children each time.” More voices became apparent and most became anxious.”But that..is simply the good news....”
By then, the barrack was a chorus of panicked voices. Then, one voice asked sternly,yet clearly shaken, “What’s the bad news?” The room hushed as the obvious question awaited the Captains reply. An audible gulp was heard before he straightened himself to talk once more.

“You.” The captain removed his hood, revealing a tall blonde woman, grinning slyly. She unsheathed the blade and charged the soldiers. Crying out all the while in ecstasy.

Not to be mean, but no. The novel is entirely driven under simple force of will, so nothing will come up in terms of funds unless the situation deems it a profitable move.

In other words, no cash for anyone working on it unless it gets popular.

Well.

That's good to know.

I will probably do a part two, and seeing bibliochu's reply, I'll probably make it go back a few weeks from the start of the story.

Bibliochou. Really?

NOT.
EVEN.
CLOSE.

I do like the story and the potential of said story. However, the topic compression is far too great for me to comprehend all at once. You need to expand a good chunk on the human prologue to the story and gradually prove that Nick deserves his new position. As well as this, you would need to add strange goings on and general reaperness to the reapers in order to twine and unravel a plot. I'd say add more story before, before going forward into the plot.

Making a novel, Would like help. Posted September 27th, 2013 in Writing

Ok: Short explanation. I'm writing a new original fantasy novel and i need 6 different categories of assistants:

Primary Writers: People with experience in writing. Allowed to contribute to the Plot of the Novel and add new Plot details.

Secondary writers: Less experienced writers who may only update or upgrade any already laid out plots or details made by the primaries.

Core Writers: Moderately experienced writers who create background stories in select parts of the novel, and create the persona glossary.

Artists: People who can flesh out the characters and give them life. (No Necromancers)

Glossawriters: Cooperates with the background writers to create the persona glossary and creates the Encyclopedia of the Novel.
