MierTech looking for graphic designers

As MierTech expands we are looking for talented artists to create promotional material for various advertisment and promotional campaigns. Pay is good, and for those that achieve very good results, they may be allowed to help with the design of the hull of vehicles, as long as they can take into account the requirements needed by the project.

Apply at your nearest MierTech store. Thank you.


OOC: Basically I would like nations that have good 3D design skills and can create realistic looking designs. I have used nations in the past but none of them have come close to Raysia's pictures that he made for me. A few of the pics they made are shown below. I would like some artist(s) to draw up pictures of vehicles that I need, either just being given basic details and free reign, or a basic plan to build up from. If you are interested, please post some pictures of designs you have made. If you wish to have a picture that you can base your design on for this, then please re-draw the Kelis cruiser (at the bottom of this post). Good luck, and I hope some people do post here.

This is the picture to re-draw. If you attempt this, please lengthen the ship, while keeping eveything else the same:

Want me to have a crack at it?

I have only one thing to say: YES. Man that pic is good. If you are willing to create pictures like that for my vehicles, then go ahead. Do you only do ships or aircraft as well? It doesn't matter if you don't do aircraft, as I'm sure there is someone else here who can do it. If you are willing, then my plans for a trimarine navy have a great future ahead.

I forgot to mention that all nations who contribute pictures that I use will be credited with the creation of the pic (naturally).

Ships and tanks, mainly. Not so hot on aircraft, I'm afraid.

Thats alright then. Currently I use RL tank pics as I'm an island nation with not much emphasis of tanks and such like, so I don't have the same sort of range as I do with aircraft and ships. Either way, I'd appreciate it very much if you could make ship pictures for me.

Concept sketch of the redesign, assuming the triple installations are fairly large [ie battleship-sized] guns.

That looks great so far. As for the guns, it shouldn't really matter for the pic - their size is only relative to the rest of the ship sort of. I look forward to the fully rendered version.

It matters for scaling them to things like ladders, stairs, lifeboats, windows...I'll assume something battleship-sized for my purposes, then?

Where there is smoke there is fire. GMC, do you know any 3D designers that specialize in aircraft and structures?
Phoenixius

GMC, the tripled barrelled guns are roughly 8".

The ship was built in Shade 7 and rendered in VUE 5 Esprit; most of my other work is done purely in Shade.

GMC, just a few questions there: 1) Is Shade 7 easy to use, and 2) is it free?

I could take a crack at aircraft if you want.
The work that I've done can be seen here:

No, I don't think that it's free. I haven't used it before though, so I can't comment on its ease of use.

They look similar to an aircraft that someone else made for me. If you wish to have a go, could you attempt an aircraft that looks similar to the aircraft from 'Stealth' - the human aircraft. Main difference would be the wings would be slightly more downward, and a bit flatter, rather than the twisted look it has. Thanks.

ah... stealth. Do you have any good pics of the airplane? when I googled it, all I got was the movie poster a zillion times mixed in with a few B-2s

In my storefront one of the first few pics is of the aircraft flying with the wings outstretched. There are also some pics of it on the aircraft carrier on GlobalSecurity.org in the aircraft section under fantasy planes, or movie planes or some such.
