I am currently seeking budding amateur or professional artists to provide concept and final publication artwork for an up-and-coming sourcebook for the Riddle of Steel system. Entitled Katanapunk!, this alternate setting explores the world of Tokugawa era Japan where struggling sword schools are forced to look outside their dojo for means to bolster their meagher funds. Blood, Honour, Steel and Attitude! thats what Katanapunk! is all about.

As this is a first project for this design team we have no cash to throw your way, having said that, all contributions will be clearly recognized in the final product. As such, any size, colour, style of artwork is appreciated.

for more information and a primer to the setting go to: http://www.indie-rpgs.com/viewtopic.php?t=7040


Artistic influences for this project include the Blade of the Immortal Manga series from Darkhorse comics, Akira Kurosawa movies, Cyberpunk 2020, experimental Japanese music and Miyamoto Musashi's Book of the Five Rings (Gorin no Sho).

All applications considered and previous experience is not neccessary.
