Hey All,

    I'm looking to do some work and offer some service to any community members wanting it.  :_)  I love you all and think I could use some more samples for my portfolio.  I'm an art theorist by schooling with specialized training in light, color grading, and more.  I also do my work on a double-calibrated monitor.  I supposedly do such things so well I'm on the Diamond Council of America (*don't laugh, I know).   So, if you have an image that's entirely finished and you'd like the color mastered (adjusted to professional standards to bring out color detail, decrease washout, simulate or bind HDR, etc.), let me know.  It can make a world of a difference.  It takes a minimum of 3 days to do each image, so if there are a handful of replies, turn-around time could end up being in the week-month timeframe.  Send me a message on Site Mail or this thread and I'll have you send your full size image to koov78 which is a hotmail address. 

    Some guidelines:

-One image per person please.

-Preferably something colorful (beautiful bird photgraphy, a poser image in a stained glass chapel, you get the idea...).  but anything beautiful is welcome.

-I ask that you at least credit me somewhere in the small print of any postings.  You retain all rights to your image and its royalties, etc.  I just ask to be able to show it to others as a sample of solely my color adjustment work.

-Please use a high-resolution version that is totally finished artistically.

This idea was birthed in the Art Theory Forum here on Renderosity and if you want to see a sample of recent work, the thread HERE has links to dreampaint's (French photographer Laurent here on this site) recent piece I remastered.  There is even one version newer she'll be posting soon that was critiqued by Tavia3D.

People normally pay $50 or more, each image, for such services, and get only half the expertise.  One note though: I cannot make a mediocre image look amazing.  I can make an amazing piece of art shine, but the underlying properties and quality of your work will always be there, so pull out some of the best pieces you've got!

All helpful critiques and advice on the finished images will be welcomed and taken into consideration!  Let's go to Color-Landia, Charilie, Color-Landia, yeah! <<
