request Looking for a digital artist to edit an image

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

I'm looking for someone who can make an edit to an art Trees made. I have permission to have someone do this. Basically the latest art she made of my character is supposed to have a cutaway with the helmet's faceplate lowered. She didn't quite get it and I don't wanna ask her to try again with so many other commissions in the pipeline. I was hoping a digital artist who's less busy could make the edit. It might require a remake of the entire head, but I hope not.

 

First attempt: http://img04.deviantart.net/0974/i/2015/139/2/b/commission_oc_vector__lektra_bolt__armor_suit__by_lostinthetrees-d8tv7ss.png

 

Second attempt: https://mlpforums.com/uploads/monthly_05_2015/post-20902-0-46699200-1432787322.png

 

Image references. Keep an eye on the video, specifically how he does the opening. It goes up a bit, then opens. Reverse that. The top part with the muzzle us supposed to lower, while the bottom doesn't move at all, unlike the images. Looking for a closed version for my character.

 

 

 

If used, the lower jaw doesn't move.

 

Or there's this, but it's missing a hinge. Might be easier to ponify. Normal when it's opened, and closed cutout with just the faceplate lowered into a closed position. There would not be a hinge visible, cause it's on the inside. Only the faceplate changes position and the bottom wouldn't, as shown in the video.

Please, can someone do this?

It sounds pretty complex :/ I think it's beyond me.

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

Sounds about time to bring this up. Please, can anyone do this edit?

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

Really how is there no one who's able to do this? Can anyone suggest a commission shop to go to maybe?

[LordSwinton 759]

You could ask trees

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

I have. She's too busy and has already done one edit. She is unable to do it so it looks like it got lowered from the top, just the bottom. The neutral open pic is perfect, the faceplate lowered came out meh.

Can anyone please make this edit? Please?

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

Is this really so hard that nobody can do it, or people don't care to look?

[LordSwinton 759]

I think it's the former

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

But it's just an edit. I'm not asking for a new piece. Not that I'm an artist, I wish I was, but it sounds simple for someone who's not swamped.

[LordSwinton 759]

I could try something if you have the raw file but I doubt I'm competent enough to fix it

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

You should ask Trees. I didn't think we needed it, but she probably still has the PSD if you post in her thread.

I'll make an attempt at this today if I have time. I have to run and get some school supplies today. >.<

 

So what you want is a version of that reference picture/attempts with the helmet closed?

[Lektra Bolt 2,337]

Yes please. Trees closed the helmet by raising the jaw part. It's supposed to close by lowering the faceplate.

[galaxysquid 2,121]

Alrighty. I'll see what I can do. ^^

Alrighty. I'll see what I can do. ^^

So any progress?
