The goal is to showcase my design concepts in a way that instantly communicates silhouette, fabric flow, and attitude while remaining cohesive as a set. Style & Mood • Stylized rather than realistic—think exaggerated proportions, confident gestures, and expressive lines. • Color should be purposeful and limited to a refined palette that lets each look stand out without overpowering the garments. Medium & Technical Details Everything must be created digitally. I’m comfortable with Procreate, Adobe Illustrator, or Photoshop files, so feel free to use whichever platform brings out your best work. Final art should...
I need my existing illustration—currently a high-resolution PNG—rebuilt as a clean, fully scalable vector. Every fine line, gradient, and colour nuance must survive the conversion so the finished artwork looks identical to the original at any zoom level. I’ll share the PNG as soon as we start. In return, I expect layered, editable files that open flawlessly in Adobe Illustrator CC, plus SVG, EPS, and print-ready PDF exports. Acceptance criteria • All paths closed and tidy, no stray points • Colours matched to the swatches I provide (RGB + CMYK) • Any text outlined • Passes a 6400 % zoom inspection without pixelation or wobble Three-day turnaround is ideal; let me know upfront if you need longer. I’m eager to see your vector craftsmansh...

I’m looking for a cinematic digital painting style with strong lighting contrast and dynamic perspective. I prefer: • Dramatic, wide-angle compositions • High contrast lighting (deep shadows + strong warm highlights) • Epic environmental scale • Motion and atmosphere (smoke, sparks, rain, particles) • Painterly but detailed rendering The character should feel small within a large, intense world — like the environment itself is a character. The tone should feel like a film still — intense, dramatic, emotionally charged. The environment should feel alive and overwhelming, not just a background.

Subtle sci-fi accents in armour patterns or weapon silhouettes are welcome if they help the designs stand out without breaking the setting’s tone. Process ...
I want a distinctive mascot-style logo that captures my brand’s personality and can scale smoothly from a website avatar to large-format print. You’re free to explore any artistic direction—cartoonish, abstract, or even semi-realistic—as long as the final character feels memorable, on-brand, and versatile. Here’s how I picture the collaboration: • Concept phase: I’ll share the brand story, audience profile, and any colour or mood references I already have.

I'm seeking a talented digital artist to create a realistic illustration of a sculpture/installation art. The image is to be used on a bookmark (2.5in x 7.5in) to market the launch of my book, The Truth Chamber. I may also use the image on my website. The sculpture is described in the book - see below: Quote Val focused on what she’d come to see, an hourglass leaning about ten degrees off the vertical held in a metal case [likely a copper alloy] that rose to form an androgynous face. The being, which must have been fifteen feet tall, grasped the hourglass at its throat. A life-sized bronze child of about ten, judging by his size, with blueberry-coloured semi-precious stones for eyes, sat in the large lower ampoule [of the hourglass] covered in blood-red sand to his chin. The s...
I’m developing a game that blends fantasy imagination with a slick sci-fi backdrop, and I need original character art to bring its world to life. The brief is simple yet creatively open: design fully-realised, fantasy-style characters that clearly fit a futuristic setting. Think energy-infused armour, unusual silhouettes, and lore-friendly gadgets—distinctive heroes, allies, and maybe a memorable villain or two. Please deliver print-quality, transparent PNGs (and your layered source file) so my team can animate and integrate them with ease. If you prefer Procreate, Photoshop, Clip Studio, or another illustration tool, that’s perfectly fine—just keep the layers tidy and labelled. Alongside the final illustrations, a quick turnaround thumbnail sheet or rough sketch ...

Sono uno psichiatra con un’attività clinica molto intensa e, parallelamente, porto avanti una pagina Instagram dedicata alla divulgazione sui temi dell’ansia. È un progetto nato per passione, non un lavoro commerciale: non ci sono sponsorizzazioni né collaborazioni, ma solo il desiderio di comunicare in modo utile, chiaro e umano con chi vive un disagio psicologico. Negli ultimi anni la pagina è cresciuta e, insieme, è cresciuto anche l’impegno necessario per seguirla. In questo periodo non riesco a dedicarmi a reel o video, perciò vorrei puntare completamente sulla grafica dei post e dei caroselli, rendendo i contenuti più curati, riconoscibili e capaci di arrivare alle persone anche sul piano emotivo. Per questo sto cer...
