Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine I need photos

I do, and i need 'em bad.
A RPG book publishing company has asked me to do one of their covers. What they want is a photomanipulation of the lead character looking out at the viewer and then some stuff in the background.
Its with the main figure that my problem arises.....i don't have a large libary of male photos to start with, and none fit what i need in terms of picture size for this project. Thats where you guys (hopefully) come in.
What I am looking for is a muscular man, the bigger the better who i looking directly at the camera. the pic can be B&W or colour. Has to be around 1000 pixels high or more......the pixel height is the most important thing. The character is white, so that should be considered as well. Hair colour and facial features don't matter, i'll be altering them anyways.
I'm searching myself too, but hopefully someone here has something usable. PM me or post here if you can help!!!! Thanks

Howzabout Ultra-Matt?????

Hmm...Matthew seems like he would be excellent for this sort of thing. Maybe you ought to PM him and ask for his pic. Or did you want someone with the look of a bodybuilder?

good idea......rhino sent me some awesome links to pics, but the pics themselves weren't a high enough resolution to work with (THANKS RHINO!!!!!)

-----edit-----
tried to PM matt, but mailbox is full; that boy is ultra-popular

You might be better off doing an image search on google. Just make sure you have some sort of filters on or you'll see a lot more than you want.

Otherwise, see my PM.

I've already pulled a few good ones of google (filters i don't need no stinking filters )....well good for other projects but not good for this one. The image quality issue gets me everytime. Thanks for the PM too, message is on the way

have you tried bodybuilding/fitness sites? modeling pages? that's where i usually find good stuff...

If you're doing this for something that is going to be published make sure you use a photo that isn't copyrighted without obtaining the rights first. If you're pulling sources off of the web I'd assume that they are copyrighted, even if it doesn't explicitly say so on the site. If you are planning on using a piece that you find online I'd suggest contacting the photographer and obtaining permission to use the photo before you submit anything for publication.

In this instance I'd think using a photo of someone like Matt might be your best bet. That way you know you have permission to use it and won't be staring down the barrel of a copyright infringement lawsuit because of it!

thanks for thinking about me, guy's !!!

but i don't think i'd be the right candidate for your pics .....

Matthew.

thanks for the heads up !!! i've just cleared it !!!

send me your PM again !!! and i'll have a think about it .....

Matthew.
