URGENT: Illustrate one landscape from several photos

  • Status: Closed
  • Prize: $200
  • Entries Received: 52
  • Winner: icassalata

Contest Brief

I have many photos, but I need one illustration that takes the good parts of each photo, and combines them into one drawing.
The drawing needs to show a beautiful landscape
The drawing doesn’t need to be realistic.
The drawing doesn’t need to be of a real place from the Golan.

--Background--
I have posted many projects in the past, but this project is a little complicated, so I am offering more than usual.
If I see that you are on the right path, and you feel that it’s not enough, I can increase the budget.
When I see a good entry, I simply choose it, most of the time I don’t ask for fixing and reversions.

---GOAL---
I need an illustration of special and amazing place in Israel: the Golan Heights.
You can use the links I am giving you, or use Google Images search to find more photos.

What I want to see in the final illustration:
1. REQUIRED: In the background a mountain covered with snow. (Mount Hermon)
3. You can add some horses and cows.
4. a waterfall and a natural water pool.
5. flowers and green fields.
6. OPTIONAL: black stones (basalt stone from old- volcanos)
7. Bonus: The Golan Heights, is a big flat plateau 200 hundreds meters above the Sea of Galilee. If you can add the Sea of Galilee to the drawing, it will be perfect.

You don’t need to use all those elements. Choose what fits your drawing.

I recommend to read about the Golan Heights in Wikipedia, it’s translated into many languages:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golan_Heights

--Consolation prize--
Because you are investing time in this, if there is more that one drawing that I like I will pay
a consolation prize for anyone I like in the amount of 10-25 USD.

---Resolution & Colors---
It can be in any resolution and in any colors.
But it is need to be easy to read when it is small.

---FAQ---
Please use the comment below for asking questions.
Please read the comments below, to understand more...
When I will start to see good entries, I will guarantee the project.
I am available to respond to your questions.

--Project Guarantee--
You don't need to worry, this project is “guarantee project”, so I must choose a winner.
I am always award an entry (You can see my past contests...). You can see my profile and feedback. Everyone is pleased (5.0 rating)


You can be creative, and do it how you think will be best. You can add or remove things..

--Examples of illustrations I liked--
You are welcome to see some the projects I took in the past, and the wining entry.
You don’t need to do in the same style.

DO NOT use all the photos.
Please look at the photos to understand what the Golan Heights looks like and use your imagination for the drawing.

    Hi AminaDev, is there no way that Freelancer.com allows you to extend the contest for just a few minutes? I was about to upload my entry and missed the deadline by a few seconds. :(

    Sorry for the inconvenience.
