Im currently in talks to nail down a new book deal and this one is going to be about environment art for games. Its going to have a full-color gallery in it and I have to get artwork from folks interested in contributing. If any of you have any environment art (which includes props, buildings, levels, etc etc) from your portfolio that is also safe to show publicly AND youd like to see your work in print, please let me know!

Sorry but I don't really have much to share at the moment. I'm sure you'll get enough though.
It was cool to get my Tarsier model into your animation book though. Good luck with the new book deal, hopefully it will get finished and be of use to some Polycounters

Oh yeah, everyone who gets work in the book will also receive a free copy, courtesy of yours truly.
Thanks for all those who have submitted so far. I'm still accepting submissions all the way throughout the next few months, so feel free to tell your friends.
I definitely want low-poly stuff, as the game is game art based. High-poly is cool too though.
I wish I could say that everyone who gets a piece of art displayed in the book receives cash money or something equally nice, but all I really can offer is to credit you thoroughly (name, website, etc etc). I'm mainly looking for individual images that you would like to see in print, but if you'd rather just link me to your portfolio and have me take a gander, that works too, but may take longer for me to get back to you, just due to my hectic schedule of working full-time in addition to writing this sucker!

Thanks again to everyone who was interested in having their work in the book's gallery. If anyone is still interested, I do have some space available! Just let me know. Thanks!

Thanks again for everyone's interest in providing art for the book! The book is currently finished and should be coming out March 1st. I'll be sending copies to everyone who submitted (assuming I can get your address!)
As for my site... yeah, it's been a hassle. My host apparantly got hacked. I'm considering new hosts for my site if my current one can't handle it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
LOL should have read this before I clicked you're sig. link. Avast went nuts and FF gave me the big middle finger. Anyway, the book looks great, I'll have to pick up a copy (I use Max, but you can learn new things from any book ).
Looks sweet!
