i'm just seeing if any HAMBers would be interested in doing some design work for me. i'm trying to start a t-shirt company but i have 0 artistic ability. i've seen the weekly art shows and all of you are talented beyond belief, truly amazing work. if anyone is willing to help me out, i will be more than happy to pay you. what i want to have drawn up is a rendition of the skull and crossbones. i'd like to have an evil or devilish looking skull with some devil horns. and for the crossbones, i want skeleton bones with skeleton hands both of which have the middle finger up. the bones should be underneath the skull rather than behind it. here are the 2 designs i have thus far. thanks guys, i do appreciate it.
I would imagine most of the artists on this board would expect to be paid for the work since....you know....it's kinda what they get paid to do.
man honestly i think that "phont" could use some change. i've been "taggin" for the last 10 years, but just a thought. pm me, if you really got $$$
I am getting quite tired of these cattle call posts.......buddy....are you not happy with the designs"thus far"? I am sure you can get a few young artists to draw for you while you sit back and decide.This is called SPEC work.......absolute BULLSHIT!!!!!! If you have seen art on the friday art show(tm)..then you must have a few of our creative types in mind........contact the people who like.There are many here who do this for a LIVING.......I for one(and alot of others)cannot and will not draw for free.Can I ask you to work at your proffesion for a week and maybe you will get the job?..or better yet...even get $$$$$$$$?Yes,yes.now your gonna reply and say"I am gonna pay"......do some research first before you put out one of these calls. And this post has nothing to do with fucking hotrods.
When I first got out of college, I ran across several job openings that wanted me to do a project or 2 for free so they could "test my abilities". I was glad that I didn't give in. I told them you have seen my work already (my portfolio), if you can't tell by that, then I wouldn't want to work for you anyways. I did find out that one of the places never actually hired artists. They just kept suckering new applicants into doing "free" work. Grrrrrrr.... I might not be the brightest bulb on the Christmas Tree, but I sure am glad I didn't fall for that one!
EXACTLY the reason I don't answer these posts...it's my livelihood...send me some money, THEN we'll talk about what you want illustrated! R-
I see this shit quite abit on a few different forums. Asking guys to test drive their designs. Kind of like a Miss America pageant. If you do some research, you can see that there are some very talented guys on this board and I am sure you will find a style and a price that you would agree with. Good luck, Mike
