Hello, I am not an artist, so you'll never see art from me. My husband and I are *trying* to develop a game. All the graphics are 2d renderings, so I spend a lot of time here shopping.

Lara & MithBIOFor those of you who wonder what the heck we are talking about, here is some more detail. We are creating a game, similar to Ultima Online and Diablo. The game uses 2D graphics for the land, the characters (monsters) and animations, as opposed to 3D like Everquest. We are using almost exclusively Poser Characters, clothing and props for the game. We will be purchasing thousands of items, and then posing each of the items into over 300 specific poses that we will use to simulate the required walk, run, fight, and spell casting animations we need. The animation size is about 1-2 on screen, while the paper doll (a single face forward version of the character) will be about 250x450 pixels.

Additionally, some of those items we select, we will make renderings for use on the website to show case the game. If you are one of the artists for an item we have purchased, and would prefer to have one of your renderings show cased on the website, we would be honored (assuming its appropriate), just drop me an email. lara@sanctuaryshard.com

If anyone is excited about the idea of their creature, dress or character being used in a commercial game, tell us about it, wed love to hear the communities feed back. And a special thank you to Stacey 73 for Rhionnan who will be the games signature girl.
