Hello I'm looking for an artist to help me create my ideas for a new grimm isekai type series. I'll work with the amount to pay whoever and would prefer if the person could make the color palette more dark and muted and only use popping shades on crucial elements in the plot. Heres a bit of what I have for concept. Synopsis: Lian Chen is a rising star who’s hard worked allowed him to finally accomplish his dream of becoming a pop artist until a tragic event occurred causing him to awaken in a world in the brink of war in “his” second life where riches and luxury aren’t common.
Language: combination of german, anglosaxon, and greek (with names only obviously)
Culture: Dark elves cast a spell in their lands to make it perpetually dark since it keeps them at ease, despised by the other races due to their ancestors creating divine beasts causing them never to want to use magic again to atone for their crimes, live secluded, rely on outdated technology, and are usually poor. Elves live with humans or alone in the forest to get closer to nature, use both fate and advanced technology, elves in the woods are pacifist, and they are worshipped by humans for teaching them how to use fate. Humans live in advanced societies, been a industrial revolutions in recent years causing them to rely less on magic, has several guilds to deal with various issues, and participate in taboo.
Power systems:Fate- similar to that of magic can be learned, but certain raises has stronger affinity to it like elves, divine beast, and spirits. Becomes stronger the more one practices it and complete visions (which are glimpses into a potential future similar to dreams). Divided into several category such as bio (affecting physical life similar to kinesis countered by summoning), alteration (reinforcement countered by elemental), elemental (creation from nothing countered by kinesis) and summoner (bringing creatures to life takes a while to cast and needs a catalyst)
Swordsmanship-wielded primarily by humans divided into battlemage weakness burst(using magic and weapons), counterstance weakness battlemage (used to minimize damage and deflect), burst weakness battlemage (wielded primarily by alternation users for high paced attacks),and secret style is reaper which is a combination of the three used only by the elites and if seen run at all cost.
The arms of truth: used by those who abandoned fate and chose science.
Themes: consequences of war, existentialism, worth of a life, fate, cycle of violence, effects of parenting, guilt, purpose
