Hi!

Can anyone give me a quote for artwork that will eventually be a decal for my rMBP (Retina Macbook Pro)?

I am looking for three identical collage pieces with one being in black, one white and one gray. Below is a list of characters I would like included. The preferred series/movie will be identified next to each character to help locate the image/character style I am looking for.

I leave it up to the artist to propose a creative way to focus the characters from the male and female lists around the lit Apple logo. The only other stipulation is to go with the more voluptuous versions of artwork for female characters (curvy top/bottom but classy).


Female Characters (Ordered from highest to lowest inclusion importance)
----------------------
Phoenix (Marvel)
Felicia (Dark Stalkers)
Mai Shiranui (King of Fighters)
Morrigan Aenslan (Dark Stalkers)
Psylocke (Marvel)
Cammy (Marvel vs Capcom 3)
Rogue (Marvel)
Chun Li (Street Fighter)
Lara Croft (Tomb Raider)
Samus Aran (Zero Suit Metroid)

Male Characters (Ordered from highest to lowest inclusion importance)
-------------------
Goku (Dragon Ball GT SSJ4)
Link (Legend of Zelda)
Harry Potter (Deathly Hallows)
Luke Skywalker (Star Wars: Return of the Jedi)
Gandlaf (Lord of the Rings)
Iron Man (Marvel vs Capcom 3)
Wolverine (Marvel vs Capcom 3)
Ryu (Street Fighter)
Mario (Super Mario Bros)
Kratos (God of War)
Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy VII)
Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)
Sackboy (Little Big Planet)
Batman (Arkham City)

Example concepts working around Apple logo:

The dimensions of the laptop are 9.73" x 14.13". Assume the decal application is going to be just slightly smaller.

I am just soliciting suggestions, ideas and prices atm.

Thanks!

Strike the idea of three different versions/colors. One in black should be fine and I can request a color change from the company creating the decal.

No, not all 24 characters need to be included, just whichever work the best together around the Apple logo. It would be cool to incorporate the logo somehow, like a beam coming from someone hand. The hard part is making that work with mutliple characters.

Mostly, I am leaving it up to the artist to come up with any ideas and shoot them to me. Only guidelines are the rough dimensions, character list and the incorporation of the Apple logo.

Given the amount of characters involved and the incorporation of the logo it may be a project that is outside of my budget but I wanted to check around regardless.

I´m going to give it a shot then, however, may I ask what is your budget? How much are you willing to pay for a job like this?

$75 is my max budget for the artwork. That said, my expectations are relatively high even though I have no clear direction on the implementation. Feel free to give it a shot or shoot me ideas you may have.

Hey Jmark, the artwork is great but I am still looking for something that is a little different, more integrated with the Apple logo.

I suggest you to choose only one character and focus on that one like the other decals that you showed us ( harry potter, goku)

i agree with jmark, integrating so many characters with one point is going to look chaotic. maybe 2 or 3 characters can be integrated with the logo.

Here is my try

Basically I just put a bunch of characters that I could found around and tried to make them look like marvel vs capcom kind of poster, something like that.
Also why do you say that you could use the money?
