| I guess the way this can work is this: I've done freelance character illustrations from $25 to $75, just to give a range. If you're interested, you can make me an offer - I'm not greedy, and I like to draw. You send me a description of the character you'd like drawn, and I'll send you a sketch to make sure the pic gets your a-ok. Then I'll finish it, clean it up, scan it at 600dpi resolution, and send it as a file attached to an email (this is all what I do with companies I freelance with). Turnaround shouldn't be more than a few days. Again, PM me if interested, or email auralius@hotmail.com. Thanks! | | | |

| | Qucalion - hey, thanks for the reply. I checked out your list - would you trade the Renegade Warlock and the Griffon from Deathknell and the Pentifex Monolith from Unhallowed? As far as the original work - with freelancing the original stays with me and gets scanned, cleaned, and sent by email to the company I'm doing the job for. If you're interested in the original, we can work something out. Email me at auralius@hotmail.com, if you don't mind. Thanks again - looking forward to hearing from you. | | | |

| Corim - I did that pic for Crisisman. He made a nice offer, and I hope he likes the pic!
tirwin - Way ahead of you! They use freelancers for their miniature design work (or so I've heard...), so I've already sent some pics and links to Art Drop. We'll see what happens. | | | |

| | Yup, that's the Monk I've been playing for the last year and a half, and probably for another 6-12 months. I gave him a TON of info on the character and the campaign setting(pseudo earth) and he came back with an initial draft that was very good. He only had to make a few minor adjustments to the final version to get the essence of Tomas as I created him. | |

| Reininger: I think you may be interested in some of what I'm doing. I don't know how familiar you are with Knowledge Arcana, but, we're getting back on track after a snafu and we may be looking for more artists.
You can check here to find our current art director.
