Contest Brief

I write childrens stories based around two characters I can describe what I imagine them looking like, I need someone who can bring them to life for me. For cover art currently, however with time hopefully will develop into a need for more. i need two old west characters, think 1850's, silly yet not overly so. One, an average man, in every way, shaggy black hair and a scruffy black beard, brown eyes, wire rimmed glasses and a nose slightly too large for his face. he wears a black short brimmed hat with a large turkey feather in the band, and a gray wool jacket. The other man, tall, gangly tall, skinny, goofy mannerisms, he has longer messy blonde hair, a ridiculously large mustache and piercing blue eyes that seem to sparkle at the joy he always has. He wears a ridiculously large brimmed tan hat that is stained with years of sweat and dirt and the brim has long since stopped trying to do much other than sag. His shirt would look best in red, torn and dirty and definetely wearing suspenders. Both men in their 20's.
They could be side by side, muzzle loading rifles over their shoulders, riding ugly old mules, whatever works best but gets their personality across in the picture. They are best friends if that helps. I'll attach my idea of the type of artwork I have in mind.

“It was great working with the freelancer, the moment he uploaded a rough draft I knew he understood my vision. I will definitely work with him again and would recommend him to anyone needing an illustrator.”
