Cinematic Sci-Fi Artist Wanted

Cinematic Sci-Fi Artist Wanted — Three High-Resolution Cosmic Illustrations for a Book

I have developed a vast Earth-centred cosmic structure and established its visual appearance, composition, scale, and progression through a set of detailed reference images.

I'm looking for an accomplished sci-fi concept artist, cosmic environment illustrator, or cinematic digital artist to transform these references into three exceptionally polished, realistic, book-ready illustrations.

This is not a redesign project. The existing references establish the visual concept, and the objective is to preserve that design while significantly elevating the cinematic realism, lighting, material quality, and fine detail.

All three illustrations depict the same structure from different viewpoints, including a complete overhead view looking down toward Earth's Arctic region. Visual consistency is therefore essential. The underlying geometry, proportions, and distinctive structural characteristics must remain consistent across all three images.

You may work in 2D digital painting, 3D rendering, or a hybrid workflow. I'm interested in the quality of the finished artwork rather than requiring any particular software or technique.

I will provide the reference images, an explanation of the intended progression, and feedback throughout the project.

Deliverables

Three finished, print-ready illustrations, minimum 6K resolution on the longest side, suitable for reproduction at 300 dpi.

High-quality RGB masters in a lossless format, with CMYK versions to be prepared if required once the printer's colour specifications are confirmed.

Layered working files or editable source files where applicable.

A brief explanation of the workflow and any considerations relevant to final print preparation.

Acceptance Criteria

Each illustration must faithfully preserve the established visual concept and structural details shown in the supplied references while achieving a significantly more polished, cinematic and visually believable finish.

The three illustrations must remain consistent representations of the same underlying structure when viewed side-by-side.

I would like to review preliminary work at agreed milestones so that composition and structural consistency can be approved before final detailing.

Timeline

Ideally within four weeks, although I'm open to discussing a realistic schedule with the right artist.

Please include relevant portfolio examples, your proposed approach, estimated timeframe, and total fixed-price quotation for the three illustrations.

I'm particularly interested in artists with portfolios demonstrating exceptional cinematic environments, cosmic imagery, sophisticated lighting, and detailed realistic rendering.
