Pureon Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hi Vincent, welcome to the forums.Would you be interested in creating some 128x128 icons for us similar in style to those shown here? We need quite a few animal portraits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanHoof Posted March 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Hello, thank you for the welcome. I could create some animal portraits if you really need me to. My style is a bit different from the one's you presented. But, I can certainly give it a shot. My specialties definitely gravitate towards armor and weapons.

Mythos_Ruler Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Hello, thank you for the welcome. I could create some animal portraits if you really need me to. My style is a bit different from the one's you presented. But, I can certainly give it a shot. My specialties definitely gravitate towards armor and weapons.The game could definitely use more portraits of armor and weapons (for technologies and other things). They'd need to be researched though and accurate to the era for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeru Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Vincent has told me that he's not sure if contributing to 0 A.D. is the best fit for him right now and he might come back in May.Hope to see you again soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanHoof Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Thank you for all the suggestions. I believe I will be able to contribute to 0 A.D. soon. I am currently finishing up the last part of my second to last semester, but I will have a fair amount of free time coming up in the near future. I can definitely do portraits for Greeks or any other race. Amor/weapon/technology portraits are also something I can produce. Researching them and making them extremely accurate should not be a problem either. If anyone has specific items for me to concept/illustrate please feel free to list it and I will work on it as soon as possible. Again, I will have much more time in a few weeks.Thank you for all the input everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
