Anyone with open commissions who wants to do some #art for NetBSD?

[karpour@mstdn.social]

@netbsd Here's some of my art, including a mascot for a (long defunct) Linux distro I did over a decade ago!

@netbsd

My daughter did the backseat driving for Dad who did the Inkscaping, to create "Tommy the Toaster", a kawaii toaster (looks a bit similar to the Oster-brand one that NetBSD notoriously runs on).

I've got the SVG source if interested

@netbsd how to submit artwork? Format(s)? How cute? Painfully, adorably, barely? Animal or personal or anthropomorphic? So many options.

@netbsd I do cute ^^

@netbsd

Tried an alternate version with a NetBSD-ish orange face rather than the "kinda NetBSD toaster red/pink" face

@netbsd @jack which email address I can connect you with The person who created logo for OS108 and concepts for NetBSD Mascots mentioned on this mailing trail ? https://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-advocacy/2021/01/21/msg000828.html

@netbsd I had a little chuckle to myself when I read your post. I'm reasonably educated artist (painter), MA etc. but wondered what exactly you meant by concept art so I looked it up in chatgpt..........

@netbsd Maybe @Fuchskind can do this ^^

[angel@triptico.com]

Thanks for thinking about me for this, Stefano, and I love NetBSD, but I don't accept commisioned art (I only do it for free).

[amanita_muscaria@mastodon.social]

@netbsd @jack Hell yeah. Hell yeah!

[garfieldairlines@derg.social]

@netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org @karpour@mstdn.social wait you did the chillhop music trash panda? I wasn't aware it was you, nice! ​​

[stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@angel @netbsd I'm sure they'd appreciate it even more, if for free

@netbsd think bigger. NetBSD is mostly known for its portability. I very well remember the old black and white logo with a lot of different crts, keyboards and mice, on top a group of little devils holding the NetBSD-flag on a trident. You don't need one mascot, you need a little family of mascots. Not so many like pokemon, smurfs or minions, but at least five somethings, that resemble evolved little devils or so - holding together the flag.

@netbsd not sure if he does commissions but @NullTheFool does pretty cool work
