I am releasing a videogame on the xbox live service next week, and I need quality cover art to promote the game.
The games are shown by box art. This means that thousands of people will see the cover that you make.
We have been working on it for about 4-5 months, and we're hoping for high quality box art.
Here is a gameplay trailer for the game.
(We are in the process of making a real trailer).
We are renaming the game to "Defy Gravity"
For the cover I was hoping for something like an attractive woman putting on the suit(maybe with some cleavage or something) that you are wearing in the game with the gravity gun sitting nearby, and maybe a black hole in the background and possibly some elements like platforms or enemies from the game or other things that indicate the game is a platformer.
You can see the suit that is being worn in the game by viewing the trailer.
It could be anime style, but it really doesn't have to be, it is your call.
You can put a your signature on the bottom of the box in whatever style you want. Or like a box art by "name" kind of thing.
I really can't pay that much, unless the game blows up and then i will give you like 300-400 dollars. Otherwise more like 40 dollars.
You don't have to go with my idea for a cover, it is just an idea.
Remember to include the game title "Defy Gravity".
I can't guarantee that I will use your box art, but if I do literally thousands of people will see your artwork with your name on it, and it could help your portfolio, plus there is money. And it is a higher quality title so it does stand a good chance of being a top download(fingers crossed), which would make many more people see it. Also I am going to enter it in competitions and convert it into a pc title, so that will be more exposure for your art.
Box requirements:
JPEG format, 584px x 700px and less than 390 KB
You can just send me a psd if you want though, preferably in the correct dimensions. Your call.
I really need your box art submissions by next Tuesday(9/28/10)
You can send them to

I do want it to be seductive but not like i feel like i'm looking at a pseudo pornagraphic image. Like modest cleavage or possibly even a behind shot with a seductive swagger, not like a foot of cleavage on DDs)

You don't have to go with what I'm suggesting though. You could go in a different direction. If you feel like you would make better box art by going with a different idea, then that is good too. Wanted: [PAID] Box art for a game that is nearly finished. Trying to put into review next week.
