Title: Special Rank - Map Artist
Post by: swordsmancs on July 17, 2020, 02:54:02 PM
- What is your in-game name?
swordsmancs
- Current Rank?
Donator (green)
- How long have you been on the server?
since November, so 8 months, give or take
- Which special rank do you want to apply for?
Map Artist
- Why do you think you deserve that special rank?
Because in the past two months alone, despite burnout and not being able to access the server on occasion for long periods of time, I've been able to create 31 separate maps, so a minimum of 507,904 blocks, most of which are staircased in some way to make extremely high quality images.
- Did any staff member suggest that you apply?
No, but SrFodonis and Swayed have.
- Additional Information:
Frankly I'm aware that being a map artist isn't exactly the most original rank for Special. Several players have earned Special for map art, after all. But I believe that what sets me apart is pure efficiency while maintaining a high quality of image. For example, my most recent work took only a week of work (not counting the week long break I had to take due to my laptop not working) for a four map piece of high quality imagery. Almost all of my maps are on display in my town, Lathana, as well, and I can show the massive structures necessary to make the maps that I sell. I've also included three screenshots of what these structures tend to look like. While they only feature my most recent work, 17/31 of my maps are built in a similar fashion.

Yep, here's a couple screenshots showing off all my completed projects so far.

Out of all of them, 24 individual maps (12 sets) use the massive 3D structures while the rest are 2D.

Did you design some yourself? These are all copied with a mod and I think https://rebane2001.com/mapartcraft/
They are a pain to make but there is no creativity in if it's just copied.

Yep, the one with the girl in front of a sunset and the selfie are original pieces from before I had the mod to work with. I?m also in the process of working on another piece without the mod as a challenge from Silver, which is roughly 3/4 complete as of now.

Your application has been denied. The special rank is entirely for the support of the server. We already have 2 reliable map artists who helps us do  map arts for the server, so we do not need another person with this rank.

Also we have reports that the majority of your portfolio is not custom made but by using mods on the server. We want to promote creativity and that would be undervaluing Silver's and Character's intense work on making custom map arts.
