Title: thatitalian's showcase - Artist NOW for hire
Post by: thatitalian on August 19, 2009, 05:45:53 pm: I have had a lot of requests for artwork recently, so I decided to actually make an official thread to show you some examples of my work.

I can work with both Illustrator (vector) and Photoshop (raster). I can also produce custom skins for Maximus Arcade.

My prices are very reasonable. Please feel free to PM me for a quote.

ENJOY! ;D

Steve.

Post by: Ginsu Victim on August 26, 2009, 08:29:30 am: Dude, your Marvel instruction card is not original, though. It's The Vortex (http://www.localarcade.com/arcade_art/details.php?image_id=1256), from localarcade.com.

My own instruction card on my cab is derivative of it.

Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: thatitalian on August 26, 2009, 09:06:25 am: Yes, you're quite right! It is! It is just an example of what I can do. Plus it was just included in the marquee image so I could save on printing costs by printing the marquee and instruction card together :o, just didn't update the image... whoops!

That instruction card is actually made for my cab anyway, so you can't have it :P

But thanks for pointing that out.
Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: Ginsu Victim on August 26, 2009, 09:15:11 am: I was just sayin', if you're putting up examples of your work, make sure it's your work. If that was my work, I wouldn't be happy with you.
Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: thatitalian on August 26, 2009, 09:19:06 am: Fairpoint. But like I say, it was actually for me, it isn't for sale.

And whoever this belongs to, I apologise in advance.
Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: Ginsu Victim on August 26, 2009, 09:31:34 am: Sorry, man, just didn't think it was appropriate to list someone else's work in a thread showcasing your own work.

That said, I've been following your work since you first joined and I've been impressed. You've done what a lot of new members fail to do....something worthwhile. Too many people fail to give back. It's been nice having you here. :cheers:
Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: vrf on August 26, 2009, 10:32:09 pm: Gotta agree that you should delete the artwork that's not your design. Otherwise, great stuff. (If it's all yours. ;))
Title: Re: Artist for hire - thatitalian's showcase
Post by: thatitalian on August 27, 2009, 06:26:47 am: Done.

You are both right, I agree 100%. Like I say, genuine mistake. :-[ I was just going to use it for my cab.

Thanks for the compliment. I know how much a pain in the ass this stuff can be so I always like to try and give back what I can.

And yes, the rest of it is mine as far as I can tell, lol. :P

I think the dude that made that huge 2 player stick with bw background+color magneto gets royalties for that. it was like 10 years ago or something. IF I remember correctly he was the first one to come up with the idea.

I'm talking about that particular set of artwork. I suggested he greyscale the background. The colored background was just too busy.

Post by: thatitalian on November 03, 2009, 06:14:38 am: Well, the old dog is back. Sorry I have been away for what seemed like an eternity. I have been so busy with the house, work and exams it is untrue!

To all that I promised art too I am sorry but time has not been on my side.

Once I get settled (prob after new year) I will resume where I can.

Hello to all! Check out the house thread for some pics!

Post by: ATWindsor on July 10, 2010, 10:24:05 am: Do you still do work? I am a bit confused, the thread title seems to indicate that you do not (not for hire), however you still have the picture of and link in your signature.
