Realistic rendering of a non-existent product for Landing Page (AI art/render)

Hello! Here are all the points of this technical assignment -

🎯 Goal:

Need to create 4–5 realistic renders/images for a Shopify website (landing page to test the idea). The product is not physically available yet, so AI-generation can be used (I can provide access to DALL·E or Sora), 3D renders, or a mix of photobashing.

💡 Product description:

This is a desk organizer + charging station in the form of a character (Samurai-alien with a sword). The product targets a male audience in the USA, premium segment (in the style of Apple, but in a dark aesthetic).

📦 What needs to be done:

1. Main banner

• An eye-catching render of the character in a dark Sci-Fi/Samurai style.

• Glowing sword (LED/neon).

• Minimalism, smooth surfaces, premium atmosphere.

• Used in the first section of the Shopify site.

• No embedded text — I will add the text myself on the website (if text is needed, better on a separate PSD layer).

2. Infographic / device diagram

• The character stands on a stand that also functions as a charging station and organizer.

• The stand width is approximately A4 size — a reference for proportions.

• On the left — wireless charging zone for phone.

• On the right — charging for AirPods and Apple Watch.

• All in a minimalistic, refined style — no unnecessary details (reference — I will send).

• Also specify:

  • 3-in-1 cable coming out of a niche/compartment,

  • Pull-out drawers for keys, flash drives, small items,

  • Bottom shelf for A4 documents.

• Can be designed as an “exploded view” or a clean minimalistic infographic.
  🔸 The stand width is approximately A4 size — a reference for proportions.
  ➕ Approximate real size: ~30 cm wide. This will help maintain the scale of the device in the image.

3. Visualization in a home environment

• How the device looks on a regular home desk.

• Atmospheric scene emphasizing style and practicality.

4. Visualization in an office

• View of the device in an office setting — next to a PC, mouse, keyboard.

• Should look stylish, like an accessory for an adult tech-savvy man.

5. (optional) Additional angle, details, or light animation (if you can).

📦 Additional tasks:

⚠️ Important:
The character (Samurai-alien) must be visually and technically separable from the stand.

That is, it should not be embedded into the stand — if validation fails, I can replace the character without redesigning the entire product.

Therefore, it’s important to maintain the structure where:

• The stand exists as an independent item,

• The character is inserted on top or beside, but not “fused” into it.

📦 Additional task №2 — sword functionality as Pomodoro timer:

⚙️ Sword functionality (important for some images/infographics):
The sword is not just decorative. It’s an LED indicator Pomodoro timer:

• Pressing the “Start” button — the sword lights up (can imagine it “turns on”).

• The sword’s light gradually intensifies over 25 minutes — this is the Pomodoro timer.

• After 25 minutes, the sword starts blinking — indicating it’s time to take a break.

• Also, buttons for Play / Pause / Stop — can be shown on the stand as minimalistic touch buttons (I will show a reference).

• Everything should be in a style — minimalism, sophistication, like premium gadgets.

Buttons for Play / Pause / Stop can also be displayed on the stand as minimalistic touch buttons

💡 This mechanic can be visually shown either as a separate infographic or include elements (icons, labels) in the main visualization of the stand.

🧾 What I will provide:

• Examples of the character and references (in private messages).

• DALL·E or Sora account, if you decide to use AI.

• An example Shopify website.

⚙️ Format:

• PNG/JPG/WebP (1920px width or adaptive for landing).

• No embedded text, unless infographics — then arrows and labels can be on separate layers (PSD/FIG).

• Focus on realism + style, not cartoonish.

⚙️ Additional format:

• If possible — make the character and stand as separate layers or objects,
  especially in key images (infographics, overall view).

• This will help in case of replacing the character without redesigning the entire visualization.

💸 Budget:

The project is in the idea validation stage, so the budget is limited.
This is not final production but a concept test with real users.

I am looking for a designer who can create visually impressive work within a reasonable cost.

💡 Important:

• Even if the idea “does not take off,” I plan to further develop similar concepts — I will contact again.

• If validation is successful — there will be much more work:

  • full Kickstarter page design,

  • graphics, renders, animations,

  • additional landing pages, banners, packaging, etc.

So this could be the start of a long-term collaboration.

⏰ Deadlines:

Preferably 2-3 days, but open to discussion ...
