Depends. What kind of art is needed? I would be willing to do some small things if you need them.

Well, mostly.... ships, and some weapon art. It is nothing major though, really, perhaps some pieces of ships here and there. Take a look at the current style of the CDF faction in the mod, and perhaps expand upon that?

Also, since we have plans for a sort of called "Farmers" faction, we'll need ships that'll look like they're used by farmers who could not afford anything better (which means cheap, underpowered ships that are made from scraps :))

I'm afraid that ships are out of the question, those take far too much time. Weapons, however, are much more simplistic. If you can provide me with basic concept art (quick MS paint sketches are fine), pixel dimensions, and a short description of what the weapon is (What kind of weapon it is (ballistic/energy/missile), what size (s/m/l), what it shoots, etc), then I could probably do some weapons for you without too much trouble. Though if you want it soon, I'd suggest hurrying, as I only have today and tomorrow before I leave on vacation for the next week.

Recent consideration of this thread has had me realise that this will be needed to be moved to the miss section. Mods?

moved to the miss section.

What? No such section by that name, mate. Seems to me that the most fitting subforum for the thread is actually a tie between General Discussions and Modding.

I think he meant modding there, his phone tends to have the habit of autocorrecting to rather humorous things

God save us all from autocorrect; when done badly, it wastes more time and makes more trouble than it claims to avoid. :D Okay then, to the Modding subforum we go!

ehm upgrade i do have some sort of idea that can be used for the farmers.
i am currently trying stuff out to make space animals.
you probaply think ,wtf! how can there be animals in space!,
but i do have some lore thoughts that contain darkmatter and stuff...
the farmers could be using thse giant animals to travel trough space in a cheap way (no fuel).
think of giant space whales with something attached to it for the personell and
maybe a pair of thrusters for some extra speed.

I like that idea, I do :)

Switch dark matter to dark energy, rename the alien animals to synths,  and we can make a faction named "The Combine" :D

Maybe have them as the law enforcement corporation I was thinking of implementing. ;)

lol
but i dont think whale riding cowboys can call themself law enforcement.
if i think about law enforcement i should say more like heavily armoured grey vehicles.
the animals will probaply be coloured in a lot of colours.... except grey...
the riders can probaply better be farmer or.... hippies.

No, no no. This is how you move farm animals through space:

Because why not? Actually, to me, that seems like something the farmers would do :)

(On a related note - we're also going to need law enforcment sprites. Anyone up for it? :))
