Hi everybody, I haven't been really active on this forums in a while, too much work, too much stuff to do... but since I like chipmusic and I like you people here, I have a little something for you!
As you might know I work mainly as an illustrator and graphic designer, that's what I do to earn a living. I have some interesting projects from time to time, and I have a lot of boring one's, but what I really would like to do, is work for musicians, doing posters and album art.

So here here's my idea: if you like my style, and need someone to design/illustrate your next EP, I might do it for free.

And where's the catch you might ask. There's no catch, but there's conditions :

  • I'll do this for free as long as the EP or LP is a non-profit thing (as it's mostly the case with chipmusic anyway). If you plan on selling it, we'll have to talk about it.

  • To do a good job I need to really like the music. It must be something that inspires me. These things either happen, or they don't so I can't promise anything.

  • I have a limited amount of time left after I do all the paid work, so don't expect me to deliver too quickly (though I will do my best not to make you wait for ages, and I've become pretty fast at doing my job anyway)

  • I will not be the mere executor of your ideas, I want as much creative freedom as I can get! Though of course it will always be a process where both sides have their share.

  • Don't ask me to draw in a different style than my own, don't ask me to imitate somebody else's style.

  • Of course I'd like to be credited for my work smile

Not sure if you want this? Check out these things I've made:

Thanks people! Really appreciate it!
@phib3r Optik: I see we have quite a different taste... but that's the good thing about this world, isn't it?
@Shriker: you mean like a photo retoucher? I do that kind of work a lot too... one must live off something...
