I need the following graphics for my scenario:

* A dialogue picture that looks like Rupert Murdoch, only dressed up to look like a stereotypical chieftain from a savage tribe -- bone through the nose, feathered headdress, etc. If you can make a monster graphic to go along with it, that'd be great too.

* A hot air balloon. I'd like at least three graphics for this: one deflated with the balloon part stuck in the branches of a tree and the basket resting on the ground, one deflated with the balloon and basket both lying on the ground, and one with the balloon fully inflated.

* A giant holding a musket. Make him look as threatening as possible. Ideally, his attack animation should involve lightning bolts shooting out of the gun, and his death animation should involve a crack opening in the earth beneath him and him falling through.

If anyone can supply any of these, I'd very much appreciate it. This is not a joke.

Now, Thuryl, I found the time to draw a little scen pic, but my e-mail keeps rejecting your e-adress. Where should I put the thing?

I do have an alternate email address you could try: l.mcmahon (at) ugrad (dot) unimelb (dot) edu (dot) au

If that doesn't work, you can upload them to your site if you want; I don't feel a particular need to keep them secret until the scenario comes out.

Thanks very much for your help! It's an honour to have the assistance of one of the community's most talented artists.

I could take a crack at that giant for you, and the balloon too if no one else wants to do that.

Edit: By the way, do you want this giant to look like a serious bad guy, or can I go full out crazy jimbob jilly on him.

I'm curious as to what this would look like.

Mind the horrible jpeg format:

Overalls, cigar (or tobacco), maybe a straw hat, an Elmer Fud rifle. Basically something that screams those hillbillies from Deliverance + Jethro Tull.

Serious bad guy. The scenario's a comedy of sorts, but it's not a farce -- and because of the nature of the scenario and of the entity I'm using this graphic to depict, I'm a little worried about being accused of racism, so I don't want it to look ridiculous. (Without going into too much spoilery detail, he's based on an actual mythological figure.)

Many thanks for offering to help; I'm quite a fan of your art too.
