Custom Illustrations (warning dial uppers)

[Oryan77]

Oh believe me, I can put you to good use if you really really want to do some illustrations

I like your hut picture, it has a good Planescape feel to it and I DM a Planescape campaign so maybe you'd really like doing some art for me!

One picture I'd like is a landscape image of a desert. Except this desert has a dark red & purple colored sky that looks like it's always dusk. In the distance is a humongous black pyramid. It would need to be very far off in the distance but still appear to be very very big (the bigger the better). It would be nice if there was a shadow of the pyramid being cast on the ground. No matter where a person stands in this desert, he's somehow always under the shadow of the pyramid. This is a magic pyramid so the shadow does not need to be cast proportionate to the pyramid. You could even draw the River Styx flowing across the desert if you want

I would use this as a handout to my players to show that their PCs just stepped onto the plane Baator (3rd level of Baator called Stygia in Set's Realm Ankhwugaht).

I could also use a picture done of the planar tree Yggdrasil showing a small town of wooden buildings built next to the trunk of the tree. If you don't know about Yggdrasil, it's big enough to build large towns on it's branches and it has giant leaves. The radius of the trunk is miles long. The sky around the tree is a silvery color. I wouldn't need a full shot of the tree, more of a closeup shot of the town but still able to see that this town is built on a big branch protruding off the trunk.

The desert actually sounds really fun. I've always wanted to do a desert. I'm almost done marks castle, so after that I'll get started. Kool

Alright...... here goes Generic Keep on water Ver 1.0.

Thar She Blows. Sorry it's a bit... well, Phallic. Well, how do I stand? Not literally.

I do not draw. I model. I'm actually really excited about this one. As long as there's not too much revision to do on the Lake Keep, I should finish fairly quickly.


Is this an eqyptian style pyramid or can I go mayan on your A$$

 

[escaflowne777]

Seriously dude, need some input, can't proceed without it.

 

[Oryan77]

Sorry man, I didn't get a response from you for a few days and then I just forgot about this thread.

It would need to be an Egyptian style pyramid...but black colored (it can be whatever tint of black, red, purple, blue, ect). This pic will illustrate Set's realm and he's an Egyptian god.

I know you're doing it in 3d...I just say draw because well....it's art

I'm actually a 3d artist myself (I use Maya). I just don't have time to do 3d artwork for D&D at the moment and you'd be helping out a lot

Fort

Cold gray sky, battered stone walls, preferably mostly front view but some top would be good, too. Massive wooden front gate battered off its hinges. Ground gray and gravely. Interior buildings stone bottom, wooden second floor and slate roofs.
Somewhat behind the fort, a sluggish brown-gray, cold-looking river and, far behind that, hills with dozens of pinpricks of firelight.
I can provide a fort map if needed or wanted. thanks in advance.

Aight. Egyptian it is.

Very proud of this one. This attachment is just a preview, not full size, or antialiased, but putting it up for comments and any changes you want before I enter the bjillion hour render period.
