Silver Crusade RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16

Hello all,

I am currently working on a community-focused project for the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game. I'm in need of some art for several custom cards, and have absolutely zero artistic talent. Would anyone be willing to draw several fantasy-inspired images for some cards?

I cannot offer you any real payment, as there will be absolutely zero compensation for this project, which I know a lot of artists will balk at. I understand why... if you're an artist, you want to be paid for your art. Nevertheless, if someone would like to get some practice just drawing/painting a few small items, I'd really appreciate it.

Examples of images we'd need:
-A 14-year old girl and the werewolf she transforms into
-Kobold tailblade weapons of several different colors/shapes
-Several different hats (a pirate tricorne, a cleric's headdress, a stetson, a crown, etc.)
-Some holy symbols of a few specific Golarion-based gods which so far only have written descriptions

Thanks in advance to anyone who might be willing to attack this project!

I'm not an artist, but I would humbly and gently inquire if you would give credit to the artists that do this work and allow them the rights to their work for future use?

ie, just because they're doing this for you doesn't lock down their options to benefit commercially from such a thing, PLUS getting art and name recognition out there with minimal 'loss' for the effort invested might be worth a consideration?

I'll have to check drivethrucards policies on images uploaded for custom cards, but I'm pretty sure the artist could retain the rights for use of all the images, and I would have zero problem with that. :)

And I would definitely credit the artist anywhere that I might end up posting the cards online, etc.
