Art Gallery / Draw me a Battle of LITS shirt please!
« on: January 06, 2013, 06:19:49 PM »
For some time, I've wanted some furry artwork to print on a shirt, specifically a shirt to give away to people who helped fund the nestorgames edition of my board game Battle of LITS. I'll give two shirts away and get one for myself. Because I have a low budget, I can't exactly afford to commission Virmir right now (although things could change in the future). Unfortunately, neither of the other artists I've asked who are both cheap and good have had time to come through. So instead, I'm going to ask people on the forums, if they have enough kindness in their heart to draw free stuff, to do it for me! You'll get nothing out of it except the opportunity to hone your art skills, but isn't that enough for some budding artists?
I want the shirt to feature my Jack Russell Terrier character Brian Dewitt (https://www.dropbox.com/s/clrcal5zc4713t8/Brian.png) and my fox/badger character Grant Badger Fox (http://art.by.virmir.com/art/klonk) standing on opposite sides of the Battle of LITS pieces (stacked like this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/sedxmem21t0rjaj/path4763-6.png). There's no need for a background; the characters can just be in a white void for all I care, and in fact, I think it would look better on a shirt that way. Other than that, I suppose you can be creative (or sketch stuff and ask me about it).![]:)](https://crimsonflagcomic.com/forum/Smileys/default/arctic_happy.gif "Happy Arctic Fox")
In the interest of full disclosure, note that there are a couple of artists whose styles I like (Norzman and Rawr) and who have expressed interest in doing this for cheaper than the $40 I'd have to pay Virmir. Neither of them has actually had time to draw something yet, but if either of them does, I might be more inclined to use their artwork for the shirt I get myself, because they're friendly, and stuff. However, if I have multiple shirt submissions in this thread, perhaps it is only fair that I let the winners of said shirts pick what they want to wear. Therefore, even if Norzman or Rawr comes through, if you feel inclined to create your own interpretation, don't be too discouraged; you will, after all, be able to develop your skill, if nothing else comes of it, and you might still be donating artwork to someone else's shirt!

Fool/Charlatan In the physical game, these are two sides of the same card. I like to imagine that they're the same person, and the Charlatan's merely doffing his Fool disguise. Thus, the fuzzy on this card should be someone who's always playing tricks, yet more dangerous than at first glance.
Farmer: 
Serving Maid: 
Philosopher: Someone intellectual. . . me, perhaps? :3
Laborer: 
Guard: 
Hunter: Does Hunter want to be a Hunter?
Merchant: 
Astronomer: 
Noblewoman: (Note this card's relationship with the Nobleman.)
Pawn Broker: 
Knight: 
Magician: Evilhumour or Kenku. (Note this card's relationship with the Alchemist.)
Alchemist: Kenku or Evilhumour. (Note this card's relationship with the Magician.)
Bishop: 
Nobleman: (Note this card's relationship with the Noblewoman.)
General: That armor and that bladed weapon just screams "I'm really serious and powerful and stuff." Pontos has armor and a bladed weapon which scream the same thing.
Queen: Lucile, obviously!
King: Virmir, obviously!

) I will decide on the tournament format when I know how many players are playing, but be forewarned that you will need to coordinate with your opponents to make sure you are on igGameCenter at the same time. (Use Crimson Flag's chat room or private messages for this.) I also can't guarantee that there will be prizes, unless Virmir is willing to do some drawing for free, as I have no prize budget right now. But at least we'll know who the best Coffee player in the community is!
