Well this is attempt two to find someone to do some art, that's the reason for the new thread. Many people have replied to my request before but have not actually done anything. I need a reliable person or persons to work on this with me.

What's happening :
I'm in the process of making a game based on the concept of the recent movie Death Race, or the 90's game Death Rally. I'm doing all of the programming and I need someone to handle some of the art.

What kind of art :
I need cars and guns of quality on par with the image I've posted below. Basically for the cars, you trace a top down blueprint of the car (blueprints are available on the web) and then you draw two modified versions of the car, each more armored than the last (for in game upgrades). Vehicles are colored with gray gradients only because the actual color of the car will be handled using Actionscript... this eliminates the need for like 5 of the same Movieclips just with different colors. Guns will be drawn in basically the same process. Draw a stock gun body and a stock barrel, then draw 2 upgrades of each.If you're capable of doing other art, then your skills will come in handy later on in the project. But cars and guns are a priority now.

Current progress :
-Working vehicle physics and controls
-Real time bullet damage
-Purchasable weapons and upgrades
-Some menu systems
I still have a tonne of programming to do, so I cannot do all of the art.
Here are two in-game screenshot's, first one is most recent and 2nd one is from a few weeks ago.

What's in it for you :

Well, you'll gain the experience and satisfaction from taking part in a game development project and have something to put in your portfolio. If the game ever makes some money you will be entitled to a cut.

Creative freedom :
I really don't care what cars you choose to make, as long as they are well drawn and not duplicates of cars that have already been done. Use your imagination for the upgrades, just try and preserve the look of the car. Guns just have to look cool, and side guns must be low profile ( meaning they can't stick out too much from the side of the car or that'll look retarded ).

Current available jobs :
I've already traced the top down blueprint for three cars listed below. All you need to do is draw two modified states of the cars like in the example of the Porsche posted above.
-Lamborghini Murcielago
-Toyota Celica
-Auston Martin DB6 (I think)

I may have to do the weapons since they're a little bit more technical, I don't know, but here's a list of stuff that I currently require :
-Large caliber gun (cannon like)
-Road Mine
-Deployable Turret (will require 3 upgrade states for base, body, barrel)
There will be more weapons included later on, once I think of some.

[SIZE="5"]If you're interested :[/SIZE]
-PM me with what job(s) you want to do, they don't have to be from the "currently available" list I posted above. Also include your email.

I am pretty good at drawing cars and I have "minimal" amounts of knowledge inAS2, so I cant really help you there. I love the movie death-race though so I wouldn't mind helping you at all. Just PM me if you need some help and tell me what you want done.

I might try making a car if it goes well I'll send it on. If you send me more detail on the turret I like the idea of that. Assume that this isn't dead already.

I would have been helping, but that Flash CS4 thing didn't work so I wasn't able to.

You can never have enough guns haha. Game will probably have a maximum of 4 active slots at the same time, out of a possible 8 or so. ie. 2 guns, front spikes, and mines.....or 4 guns

Thanks for that it looks good. The fills you've done are probably fine, I'll test it and see. If not I'll fix it up, i've got a preset swatch. For future works, don't worry about doing fills I'll take care of that.
