Spanish translation bleg

[benlehman]

So I'm poking around deviantart looking for an artist for HGMO. There's a few particularly good artists I'd like to contact but they're from Mexico and operate their pages Spanish. I was wondering if anyone reading this blog would be able to translate a simple introduction message for me (Hello, here's the project, unfortunately I don't speak Spanish, do you know enough English to feel comfortable working in it, basically.)

Send me your draft, I'll turn it around.

Hello!

My name is Ben Lehman. I am an American role-playing game design. I write and publish games under the label of "These are our Games," (website: http://www.tao-games.com/)

I'm working on a game called "HGMO" which is a 2 player game based on yaoi manga. Because it is based on manga, it needs to be appropriately illustrated. Looking around deviantart, I found your page, and I really like your work I'd like to hire you to work on the project.

The project would be 15-30 interior illustrations, possibly including some comics, as well as a color cover. As for payment, I can pay you cash up front, or I can pay you a royalty on each copy of the game sold. The exact amounts we'd negotiate in the future. Additionally, you would keep all rights to the work (you could resell it or sell it on t-shirts or make your own comic books or whatever), and I would only get a license to use it for my game. I would also prominently credit you and could, if things worked out, recommend you to other publishers.

Unfortunately, I don't speak Spanish at all (this letter is translated by my friend Alison.) In order to work on this project, you'd have to be comfortable taking art direction and offering art advice in English. If you're not comfortable with that, I would very much appreciate it if you could recommend other artists to me who are as skilled as you.

Thank you very much for your time and I hope we can work together in the future.

Probably "yaoi," "manga," "These are our Games," and "deviantart" don't need translation.

Could you amend "the exact amounts we'll negotiate in the future" to "the exact amounts we'll negotiate before you start working?"

thanks.

Hey, uh, any progress report? Otherwise I'm going to forge ahead in English.
