CALL FOR ARTISTS!

Hello to all the NPT members! Some of you may know that I'm currently on the look out for talented artists to contribute on a new book I'm working on called The Character Book (vol. 1)! The book will feature some of the hottest Character Designs (& Designers) out there, in a similar fashion to the popular publication of Pictoplasma's Character Encyclopedia! I would really love to feature some paper toys in the book, so I thought I'd let all you guys know - in the hopes that some of you may be interested. :) More information can be found here. If you'd like to contribute to the book please send me an email jenni (at) creaturekebab (dot) co (dot) uk and I shall forward you the official brief. Best wishes and looking forward to hearing from you! - Jenni

    Yes. It's all explained in the brief, but I'm looking for unique, professional looking designs in 50 different categories.

    Some chosen artists will be asked to produce work for single or double page spreads. :)

    Hi Jenni,
    I would love to participate and I have a character I have been working on named Yanci the Yeti and you might have seen my recent posting of the paper toy I created using the illustration from a poster I designed for a recent event. I tried to get to the information from the link in your posting, but it would not link (DNS server error). I would love to participate. Is there someplace else to get the info?
    Thanks
    Scott

    Hi guys! Here's a link to the Pictoplasma book I mentioned - http://www.amazon.com/Pictoplasma-Character-Encyclopaedia-Lars-Deni...

    (You can have a look inside on there!)

    I'm looking for work of a reasonably high quality, and original - quirky - cute characters.

    The official brief (that I have been sending out via email) lists 50 categories/themes I am looking for. For example No. 8 is "A Yetti Wearing Socks". These categories are all intended to inspire and direct your work, so once I piece everyones work together it will be coherant.

    Again, please email me if you would like a copy of the brief to read through. :)
