Another art request, SG-1 this time

[malnpudl]

I've got the Sid Project underway and it looks like I'll be doing at least four, possibly five podfics of her work, depending on my stamina.

I'd like to see her podfics given worthy, wonderful covers. Sadly, all I can manage myself is embarrassingly mediocre Paint images, and while I can live with that on other my other works, it just doesn't feel

Could you tell me the titles and what text you want? Maybe I can manage one over the next little while. I would love to contribute something to Sid's memory. I'm sort of off Photoshop right now (for reasons and problems with the upgrade I did), but maybe I can draw something? It would necessarily be somewhat abstract as I don't really draw people. If that seems like something you'd be interested in, just let me know. I wouldn't be offended in the least if you decided to go in a different direction.

[malnpudl]

That would be wonderful! I think it'd be a lovely tribute, and I'd be entirely delighted to have your art grace one of these podfics.

The text for each is just "[Title] by Sid" and "read by malnpudl".

Let me know which one you'd like to do -- you get first dibs. :-)

The stories I'm doing are:

The Quantum Mechanics of Love (completed)

The Rex series (two stories, so at least one podbook cover for the series and potentially also individual covers for each of the two stories if someone feels inspired; this is the next one I'll be working on)

In These Dreams

Phone Jack (this one will be a collaboration -- all dialog in two voices -- and the co-reader will be Chemm80)

And possibly, if I have the stamina:

Transits of the Moon

ETA: magnavox_23 previously created art for "In These Dreams" and would like to use that to make a podfic cover for it, so consider that one spoken for.

ETAA: I got my co-reader of choice for the collaboration! Woohoo! Info updated above.

Hi Mal! I will do something for "Transits of the Moon."

Thanks for doing this. I was wondering what might be done for Sid and this is just a perfect tribute!

[theemdash]

I have no art skills or else I'd be volunteering.

You might consider posting this at jackslashdaniel for some wider coverage on finding artists.

[malnpudl]

Oh, that's a good idea. I may do that in a day or two, if there are still some left. Thanks!

[magnavox_23]

(Here by way of troyswann *g*) I think this is a fantastic idea! I had considered podficcing her works too (she would have loved the idea), but yours are so so much better, and my dodgy Australian accent blows. *g* I would love to do some artworks for this project. I did the original art for Dreamverse, so I would love to incorporate that if possible?

[malnpudl]

Oh, that would be all kinds of brilliant! Yes, please! Thank you so much!

[magnavox_23]

No worries! What dimensions would you like?

[malnpudl]

Umm... I'm not sure? All I can think of is pointing you toward amplificathon and suggesting "Something like that...?" There isn't really any convention.

[eilidh17]

For our Sid... anything!

Holler, scream out loud, or toss a dead trout at me if you need more artwork.

[malnpudl]

Yes, please! That would be grand! :-D

I've updated this post to show what's still in need of cover art and who's working on what so I can keep track.

Pick anything you like -- one or more -- and let me know what you want.

Thank you!

[magnavox_23]

Eilidh17 doesn't have net access at the moment, but she wants me to let you know she will do the art for The Quantum Mechanics of Love and Phone Jack. :)

[malnpudl]

You can't see me, but I am doing the full-tilt chair-boogie of joy right now! Thank you and pass my thanks along to her. I love how everyone is coming together on this. SO MUCH. <3<3<3

[raqs]

Good for you.

[malnpudl]

Thanks. <3
