I am helping Dark Lotus Guild, which some of you may know about from the Lineage II section, create a clothing line through Cafe Press.

Just logos and stuff to put on mugs/tee-shirts/keyrings/calendars/etc...

Now, I have some done, they do still need refining, and the owner of DLG and myself have a good idea of what we're looking for. I need help with drawing logos/characters, coming up with ideas (slogans and stuf), and refining some of the work that's all ready complete.

I'm not getting paid and you will not either, its just a big project, its going to be fun, and people will be wearing (or finding the dates on, drinking out of, whatever) what you make. Please post here if you're willing to help.

Foogie, Freak, and Tetiel; you're the ones I'm hoping for, but I don't know, maybe there's some drawing talent here that I don't know about.

Even if you can't draw, post any ideas you have here.

Thanks a ton guys!

Maybe you can show us some of your current logos so we can get an idea of what you want

[Nick]

I'll do it.

This is what we have so far. The mug isn't done, I'm still drawing the chibi.

As you can see, we don't have a lot, and we need..a lot? XD

Sounds great Urban, would you like to discuss your ideas here or on msn? Mines [email protected] if you decide to go that way.

I'm caught up at the moment with a competition, but in a week I'll be happy to help you.

Question though, where do the profits go to?

[Sakura]

The profits help to keep the server running. It's really quite expensive and Pain and Doobie do not have nearly enough money.

[foogie]

I'll help!

I was SOOOO bored today that I took a 2 hour long shower. I really need some things to do.... XD

I don't know a thing about lineage though, so I would need to be briefed about the types of things I should be drawing.


heh heh

briefs

Well, because of copywrite we can't make it look exactly like Lineage, so all you need to know about is races. There are Elves, Dark Elves (just think elf with a sort of ashy colored skin and either white or dark purple hair), Orcs (these are more humanoid with big muscles than your nasty LoTR type), Humans, and Dwarves (the males are always presented as old and females are always sort of little cute momo types).
The game is set in the middle ages, so think of that for wardrobe. I have 2 chibs that I've started that I need some serious help with, and then there is plenty of other things that you are totally artistically free to create. Umm. there are dragons and fun stuff involved.


I'm trying to think of any quirks right now, only things I can think of are these; Male Human Mystics look very...frail. XD Dark Elves (yes, even the mens) are sooo skanktacular.

Just click the different race tabs up at the top and you can see some pictures of each one.

I see, I seeee... now; aside from drawing the pictures, what else needs to be in it? (text-wise, or logo-wise)

[Sakura]

Wellllll, "Dark Lotus Guild" should be involved somewhere. Other than that, I really mean it when I say artistic freedom. Um..just think along the lines of playing RPGs in general, raiding, seiging castles, how the races might interact (Oh, dark elves and elves muthaeffin hate each other, btw.), etc...

D: lol, I see, I seeee..... any time limit to which I need to act upon? (my work isn't exactly the quickest in the world.... D: lol)

[Sakura]

Well, we need a few things out by the end of the month. But really...I just want to slowly add.
The only project that has a solid deadline is I need help finishing this chibi:

within a couple weeks and this chibi:

by the end of the month.

how do you want them finished? (end of the week I might not be able to make, I've got a commission, plus all my friends are going back to their own countries in the next couple days and I wanted to draw them stuffs lol)

[Sakura]

Well then its a good thing that I said a couple weeks.


Well, as you can see, the coloring is horrendous. I've been working on it, but I can't get it to come out right.

the coloring is looking good; it's just the shadowing and stuff which I see could use some work... if you can send me the photoshop files, I'll see what I can do...

I did one of them here, tell me if it's any better. and I just added the blue stuff around the staff cuz i was extremely bored.

now I can either do the font or whatever myself (though I'm horrible with stuff like that) or I can re-send you the photoshop file, and you can finish it off... which way you wanna swing?

[Sakura]

Ohh, that looks much better. Thanks much.
I don't need text, it's going on a mouse pad that the design is already done. Just needed him spiffed up.

Thanks so so much. Just upload the psd the way I did.

/goes off to study your coloring

[Justin]

Oh oh. How can I help?!

[Sakura]

Help me come up with witty remarks to write on underwear and things!


You know lineage, if you were wanting to go total geek, what sort of merchandise would you want?

And that's not an option for us.
Unless I used the postcards to make paper dolls. XD

[foogie]

okies, here's the other one:




now someone help me find out how to use rapidshare so I can upload the psds! D:

[Justin]

Honestly.. If I wanted a shirt related to L2 I would want something that said "Buffs plz" or "D/S plz" or "Buff me" Something along those lines.

I like it, except for the shading on her face makes it look like she has 5 o'clock shadow. XD
For Rapidshare;
http://rapidshare.com/
Right there in the middle of the front page there should be a box that says browse. Do that, point to your files, and then click upload. It will give you some crappy advertisment and then it will give you your link. This makes it to where only people with the direct link can download the files.

Hmm, I was thinking about making an 'Adena Plz' t-shirt. I'll think about a buffs one, thanks.
What do you think about a couple that are like advertisment shirts of some of the more famous places in Lineage. Like a getaway to Giran t-shirt. Rough idea, you get what I mean.

I would die if I wore one of those shirts
