anime artists, please help me with cover illustration

I have a huge favor to ask. I am writing a story and need a cover illustration for it. I'd love for it to be in anime style, and colored, preferrably on the computer. If you decide to help me with this and can't color it on the computer, then you could send it in black and white and then I can get someone else to color it for me. I don't care what style of anime it is in, you can use your own judgement on that. I'll give a description of what I want below. I'd like for as many people that will, to draw it and send it on this thread, and then I'll pick which one I think will work best for the cover.

Description:
I need two people, a boy and a girl. Both around 15 years old.The boy has short brown hair and blue-gray eyes. The girl has long Reddish brown hair, and green eyes. You can design the clothes for them, it makes no difference, just something a little futuristic. They can both be standing or one standing and one sitting down, whatever looks best. They won't be standing on anything just sort of floating there. The background needs to be stars all around, maybe a few planets, and a shooting star or something. Leave room at the top for the title, I'll put that in later. I need a double helix DNA strand somewhere, large or small, just stick it in where you think is a good place. The Kids do not have weapons. It might look good if the boy is holding out his hand and the DNA strand is sort of spinning above it. That's just my idea. Please Someone or more do this for me, I REALLY REALLY appreciate your help and I'll give you FULL credit for it. You should even put your signature somewhere at the bottom. If I could draw anime, I'd do it myself, but Im not good at that at all and I know that there are alot of great artists here.

Thank you,
hyRULE-S:cool:

I may could help you. but, is it OK if I just draw the persons? I hate to draw backrounds, and I'm not good to draw backrounds anyway.

Of course, I'll jump at any opportunity to do something o_O

But you don't mind if it gets delayed a bit?

(I should really stop this habit.)

Cazandra: Yeah its ok if you just draw the people. That's really the hardest part for me anyway.
Sir Chuc: Thanks for giving it a try, and take as long as you want. eh.. but not too long:?

I wouldn't mind helping out and I'm flattered you asked but I am a very busy person, with a lot of my own art projects and such ^^;. If someone draws the pic I wouldn't mind colouring it for you. Planning out and drawing the picture would take way too long for me (it took me a week to outline a picture once on computer).

I might give it a shot! But is it Ok if it isn't anime? I can't draw Anime!

anime style ain't my stronges side. So just be serious, and tell me of you like it or not, kay?

I don't know if progress reports are what your looking for, but I've chosen to do 2 translucent faces in the front, just to see their faces alot clearer, and then the image your talking about in the back (fully opaque) Its blue because its my initial plan.

sir chuc, it looks great. Progress reports are good, So maybe if there is something that I want changed I could tell you before its too late. Could you possibly make the boy's hair a little shorter? If not its ok because it looks great like it is, but If you can change it, then that would be good. thanks

Remember you can design the clothes yourself but try to make them a little futuristic.

Hmm, by futuristic, do you mean like simplified robes with little add-ons here and there?

right, but what little i see on that drawing looks good

Wow! thats really good! ...but sadly...very easy for me.

someone has a big ego.......

Heh heh...*blush...JK...actually I am very nice when you treat me like a citizen of the United States...I just moved in from Tokyo!!!

Tokyo_Shiek, could you give it a try too? If you don't know what im talking about, read the first post. Congratulations on moving to the U.S. I hope you like it!

You too, ZG2, please give it a try, I've seen your work and you are a awesome artist

Hmm, I could give it a try, but it might take a few days...also, would you prefer cel style shading or soft?

soft, please. And thanks for giving it a try.

Are you still working on it Sir Chuc?

Alright, I've done a sketch of what I'm gonna do. It's messy right now, but it will be cleaned up during colouring.



Anyone like?
