We can use talented people in the Art Revolution project. We are re-making the models, improving the geometry with the details shown in the original textures and improving the textures as well. If you want to re-make some models so that we can see what you can do, perhaps we can use your help!

We are currently making normal maps from hi-poly models with every original textures' details as geometry, and then using those in low-poly ones, creating diffuse maps based on the original textures as well. Mantaining the style is a must :P

I don't have the slightest idea if you want to remake or create something brand new, but I'm just taking the opportunity to let you know about our project.

And welcome to the forums! ;)
