I'm intrigued

[XCore]

Did this teaser need its own thread? At least explain it.

[stevencho]

Did this teaser need its own thread? At least explain it.

This thread is not only for the teaser. The teaser is just there until June 8th, when I will replace it with just the logo and description.

[vidboy10]

The logo is pretty professional.
but i cant wait to see what this is. =)

[yummybrains]

Why do we need a teaser?

Can't you just tell us, it's not like it's a film with a set date or something.

Big Sister

I knew I was going to get someone to post a Big Brother reference but I totally forgot about the Big Sister in Bioshock 2.

[tleeart]

I'm going to think on it. My biggest issue is time, I don't have a lot of it, but I love the idea of grooming another artist to do well here.

[jessicamyidol]

I would like to be a student. :) If you can tleeart, wanna pair with me? If not, I'll just be with anyone. :)

[oxol]

I'd like to test both, but I guess I'm not good enought to be a mentor.
Just PM me

[ELCrazy]

This seems really interesting, and I must commend stevencho on starting this initiative. However, I doubt I'll be able to commit much time to this. But still, anyone who needs help, don't be hesitant in asking me. My door's always open. :)

[ManBearPig]

I guess I could be a student..

[Vic1293]

I would like to be a student. I feel that I can improve better if I have help from another person. I would request to be a student of the following:

I do believe that the students must be willing to learn though.
Also, how does the mentoring work? Do you converse via msn/aim?

[Sentry]

I still need a student.

[a-beast-of-art]

Hey Sentry, could I mabey be your student, I know I don't have MSN, but I really admire your work and I think it would be cool to work with someone as good as yourself.

[Ladykiller]

I don't care whether you put me down as a mentor or student. I know a bunch of tips and tricks and am also eager to learn some new ones.

[stevencho]

I don't care whether you put me down as a mentor or student. I know a bunch of tips and tricks and am also eager to learn some new ones.

Yeah... you're going to be a mentor.

[StinkyNelkin]

I would like to mentor coolguy. Coolguy, do you accept?

[Nerdysimmer]

Don't know if I'll actually have time for this. It's a very thoughtful thread, something that isn't common.

Put me down as both a student and mentor, I know there are users who are indeed much more talented than I, but I'm willing to teach others as well. :D

[jessicamyidol]

I'm still in need of a mentor...I have Photoshop and MSN. :)

I'm looking for a mentor who is experienced and uses GIMP if it's not to much to ask.

[GrahamZ]

[HalfSwiss]

I'm not sure if I want to mentor or be a student.

[Tucker1140]

I'm not sure if I want to mentor or be a student. I believe you have to be a mentor. I think in the rules it said Rank 6+.

[HalfSwiss]

M'kay mentor it is.
I'll teach a student with Paint.NET.

[Mikly]

I think in the rules it said Rank 6+.

Uhh, that doesn't make sense. Why rank 6 couldn't be a student? You can get high rank just spamming boxes...
But yeah, Halfswiss is good enough to be a mentor.

[AfterShock]

I'd love to be a student...anyone who'll take me is fine.

I use GIMP and I have AIM, if that helps anyone.

[Vic1293]

M'kay mentor it is.
I'll teach a student with Paint.NET.

If Cerium doesnt take me, can you?

[Ayron]

Btw, i'm only sufficient enough to teach with Photoshop.

[coolguy753]

I don't care whether you put me down as a mentor or student. I know a bunch of tips and tricks and am also eager to learn some new ones.

We totally match up xD

[XCore]

[GrahamZ]

I change my place. I'd like someone to mentor me. Someone mature...

[HalfSwiss]

Work w/ Venom. HalfSwiss'll take me. (i hope :p)
Cool. It's time to make some Resident Evil boxes. =P

[Drakxxx]

I'd really like to get involved as well, but at the moment I'm also a bit pressed for time generally. That said, I think I'd have the time to work with someone through email and the occasional Instant Messenger conversation a few times a week if that would suffice.

A few things to keep in mind with me though, I use Photoshop exclusively, and have never done any work on GIMP or Paint.net. Also as others have requested, I would prefer to devote time into this if the person in question genuinely has an true interest in these kind of arts, and more importantly, has a desire to ultimately cultivate they're own style of the sorts in regards to media design.

[spypilot]

[YoshiStar]

I'd be happy to be a big bro, since now I have a lot of time on my hands. But the problem is, I live in India, and most people live in the US or in some other area that's not India, so communication would go really slowly. Are there any siblings that it would work out for? :\

[Death]

Hey, me and YoshiStar are paired up

[XCore]

Hey, me and YoshiStar are paired up

I think he needs to consent first.

[LEGOslayer]

Anyone want to teach me the art of making a truly epic back?

[afifan000]

That's just fucked up.

[Apollo]

Ehh what the hell, sign me up.

I might take LEGOslayer in, I've got a few things I could share

[Death]

I think he needs to consent first.

He did, we have been talking over pms for a couple days now.

[Eco]

If I could be a signed up as a student, that would be great. I'd really appreciate if someone could mentor me. :D

[YOYO]

I wouldn't mind having a mentor.

[afifan000]

If I could be a signed up as a student, that would be great. I'd really appreciate if someone could mentor me. :D

Do you use Paint.NET?

[Eco]

Do you use Paint.NET?

Yeah.

[Vegeta1056]

[City Tiger]

I could use a mentor too, sign me up please!

[TrevOwnz]

Why is Koopa a student?

[stevencho]

Why is Koopa a student?

[mailtoad]

[Manuel_Alejandro95]

[runner12326]

I dunno if there are any mentors left, :D but I would like someone to help me.

[Ayron]

I don't know if anyone wants it, but i can handle more than 1 student...

[runner12326]

I don't know if anyone wants it, but i can handle more than 1 student...

Sure, that would be great. :D Do you use photoshop?

[Ayron]

Sure, that would be great. :D Do you use photoshop?
Yeah, i use Cs4.
You might want to check out my gallery, to see if that's the style you are looking for.
If not, i suggest finding another mentor.

[runner12326]

Yep, I like that sort of style you have. Great.

[Tucker1140]

Yep, I like that sort of style you have. Great. It sounds like you just said that, but haven't seen any of his boxes. When I got a mentor I check a lot of the people that wanted to mentor me, I checked the boxes and found a style I liked. GrahamZ, is my mentor and after I got a mentor I boosted up to Rank 4! Now my boxes are getting really good! But thats because I like his style and we fit, you have to know the feeling of Ayron's boxes to know that you want to be his student.

[Bastien]

Although I have only been here for a short time I believe I have the capability to be a respectable student who can show maturity and take critisicm. Any mentor will do, considering they are all better than me. Anyone?

[Ayron]

It sounds like you just said that, but haven't seen any of his boxes. When I got a mentor I check a lot of the people that wanted to mentor me, I checked the boxes and found a style I liked.

But thats because I like his style and we fit, you have to know the feeling of Ayron's boxes to know that you want to be his student.

Those would be my exact words if i would've posted earlier.
Thanks for the post, one of the most reasonable things i've heard lately.
Indeed, if anyone wants to be my student, please,for your own sake, look at my gallery thoroughly, because it will do no good if our styles clash.

[benclank1]

I'll sign up as a mentor.

[ojoe2000]

I'll sign up as a mentor.

I'll be your student.

[stevencho]

I'll sign up as a mentor.

There are some general qualifications you have to meet in order for someone to feel that you will be a beneficial mentor. I thought your thread was saying you wanted help so I suggested this to you so you could sign up as a student.

[amad2]

could i be a student and have xcore as my mentor please if not anyone else will do

[stevencho]

Send XCore a message and if he accepts come back and post that you are a pair and I will add you two.

[XCore]

Yay, a fan. Sure.
Make sure you have MSN, and PM me with it.

[Eco]

So can anyone help me out with the mentoring? I'd really appreciate it!

[HolyCowfartsBatman]

I would like to be a mentor: I have 5 Hall of Fames, I'm a rank 7, I hope I've proven myself to be mature (don't let the username fool you), I've been here for a while, and I'm happy to put some time in. :)

I love how hall of fames and rank influence the ability to tutor someone.



Classic.

[HolyCowfartsBatman]

Well it does say at the beginning that you have to be above rank 6 and I think that Hall of Fames do help because it proves that you have at least minor talent.

So yes, it does influence your ability, and you will notice that isn't all I put.

[Eco]

Also, could I please get a mentor with PDN? :o

[mchapra]

Can I be a Mentor?

My rank may not be high and I have no HoFs but I know a trick or two in photoshop.

[HolyCowfartsBatman]

Also, could I please get a mentor with PDN? :o
I'll be your mentor if you like, I don't really use it anymore, but loads of my boxes were done in it and I can still remember how to use it. :) What do you say? Interested?

[Zelda152]

Damnit Olly! I wanted you to be my mentor!

[Eco]

I'll be your mentor if you like, I don't really use it anymore, but loads of my boxes were done in it and I can still remember how to use it. :) What do you say? Interested?

Definitely! Thanks!

[Zelda152]

DAMNIT!
Why won't anybody be my mentor?

[HolyCowfartsBatman]

DAMNIT!

[Zelda152]

[Sgt.Sqeezle]

I would like to become a student please.

[SparkPlug]

Can someone be my mentor so I can learn how to use this STUPID Photoshop? I'm getting pissed with it and tutorials are not helping much... :o

[stevencho]

-THREAD REVIVAL-

I know a lot of new people have joined who aren't aware of the system we used to have for mentoring. I thought I would revive the thread in case any were interested. With it being almost a year since the last post I cleared all the available mentors and students. If you wish to be either one you can request.

[Daemon]

I don't need a mentor, per se, as in, I don't need someone full time with me. I just need someone to teach me how to render in Photoshop because tutorials are not helping at all.

[mchapra]

Can I be a mentor?

[KoopaDasher]

Why not... I'll offer my services to aspiring boxartists who are interested in learning the trade.

[Magical]

I would like to be a student. :) If it's possible, could Koopa be my mentor?

[KoopaDasher]

I would like to be a student. :) If it's possible, could Koopa be my mentor?

Sure, why not. Hop on board the Koopa Express.

[amad2]

I'd like to be a student. Anyone will do as long as they are good, have msn and use photoshop.

[Ronthis the Werewolf]

Well, Ill stay for some more time. So could I have a metor? Preferably Mchapra?

[Novus]

I sense a lot of wub in this thread <3

[RAiDeN-209]

I'd like to become a student please. I don't care who, if someone's level 6 they are pretty much guaranteed to be better than me.

[amad2]

Looks like no-one wants me :'(.

I feel alone :(

[MattStar]

Amad I'll help you out. Your last box was tight, you show potential and improvement. PM me.

[Ronthis the Werewolf]

Slydes is my mentor currently, but if anyone needs help with anything don't hesitate to ask.

Well, can you be my mentor?

[ikhaoticzz]
