I'd like a commission or two, in the style of either the first, second, or fifth sample in the op... But my comp is out of commission (on phone atm), so reference pictures will have to wait... And I must choose which character(s) to commission for. Do you take a limit on numbers? I'll send a query pm when I get my computer up and running (which if things go to plan, tomorrow night).

(Consider this a reservation post!)

Heyo all.

Commission slots are open :3

I've got 3 atm, but only working on one since I don't have other screenshots to go on:

1) Heres To Life
2) Messy
3) Konig

(Note: These are in no particular order. I work based on the information and screenshots I'm given. I will swap to work on the earliest request though based on information.

Example: Konig is technically first in the queue, but I have no screenshots. Next is Messy, but I have no screenshots. Heres To Life provided me with screenshots, so I'm working on his until the earlier requests send me information. This way I always have something to do and usually working on finishing a commission. So reserving a spot matters of course! I'll just be working on other things until I get info and then you become the top priority to finish)

Here you go I don't have anything of my sin yet, and I'd love a badass lineart style like you did with EsmeQ's ele :P


I'll do a pre-pay of 50k with a stack of granite and 100 iron ingots for destroyer weapons (since I know you need them :P) as a pre-tip, too, whenever you see me in game

Hey, interested in something similar to that lolana's warrior with some background of sorts when there's a spot. Burning isle inspired or something cos the fire looks awesome.

Pay you with some keys if that's alright.

I'm currently cropping pics (while also juggling grabbing better pics, working on a commission story, and a commission bio set). Assuming I don't get tired of cropping and copy/pasting to make nice pretty reference pics (I use 4 angles of head, chest, waist, boots and full using the dye preview - 20 pics to crop and copy/paste together into five o.o), I should get them up later today (if I do, I'll probably just edit this unless someone posts something after this).

But of course, finish whichever you're working on before you get to me. 'Sides, I don't mind waiting a bit, it just means you'll improve (so long as you don't close down ). That and mine may be complicated.

Scratch posting tonight - just remembered that there's something school related I have to do due in now 11 hours. o_o *rushes off*

Hiya. I'm loving what you've done so far and I'd like you to do me a picture of my Ranger. Is it best for me to send you some screenies of how I'd like her to look or would it be better if you told me what kind of shots you need?

PM me when you get the chance.

Quick note to anyone who tried to contact me ingame within the last 8ish hours. I apologize if I didn't respond or come back to to the keyboard as it said I was AFK.

I was on guru and logged into GW very late at night. I got a phone call, and wound up leaving my computer to talk on the phone. By the time I was off the phone I was practically asleep.

When I woke up I walked downstairs to find GW still running and a decent number of PM's

Apologies all, I was quite asleep.

Next time I'll make like a ninja and go down to turn my computer off before I pass out

Hiya,

Thanks for getting back so quickly. Here are a few screenshots of my ranger with her white obby armour and tormented longbow. If possible I'd like her posed like she's just shot an arrow (images 1,2 & 7). If you could give the arrow a firey or splintered appearance (something dramatic, definitely) and give the background an appearance of the jade sea - my favorite area in the game - that'd be awesome.



I'm going to probably use this image as my desktop image (WS @ 1366 x768) but probably also print it out so something in proportion but high res would be excellent.
Thanks very much in advance.

Hey all, just so you know, I'll more than likely post up finished initial sketches for all incoming commissions and then paint them in order. So people can send me PMs and tell me if they like them :]

For curious commissioners, here is the list so far.

1 - Konig (Three commissions total, but done spaced out from one another)
2 - Messy
3 - Thistle
4 - Nuclear
5 - Fowlero
6 - Heres to Life

NOTE: Commissions are still open, you can request a spot, and you'll be put in the queue. Keep in mind though, once all the screenies get in I'm going to have 9 pieces to finish. So If you're asking for a commission it'll be a while before I get to it. Feel free to let me know if you're interested. :]

Yasee, probably half of these commissions would be done already since I generally try and do any given commission in 2-3 sittings. Unfortunately, the past two weeks have been so insanely busy all I've managed to finish is a starting sketch. Luckily I'm about to become much more unbusy. Just gimme some grace and I'll have all your requests done soon ^-^

Great Scott I dun know how I got so busy all the sudden O.o
Thank you all SOOOOOO so much for all the business!!
I have you guys to thank for making me practice my drawing/painting!

And for teh lolz, here's an update on Heres to Life's dervish.

Got to partially color his scythe.
And no I'm not doing spoiler tags this time :3

Now just imagine... If I did sketch and non-color commissions I could finish this guy in about 15 minutes. Isn't that a scary thought? ;D

Darn you color and your evil ways of evil, despite being so much fun to work with.... I think the worst part is his obby armor is dyed pink.... So yes, you will all get to see pink dyed armor when this commission is done XD

Awesome I forgot to mention on mine that I'm trying to get some celestial daggers to match my sin's armor colors, although if you've already started drawing the ones she has now or some other variation, that's fine, too

AND THE DERVISH IS DONE!!! =D



PS - A painting like this would be anywhere from 150k-250k (price based on the payment I've received from the past 8 commissions). I'm very flexible with pricing, but these do take time to finish... And this is practically my only source of income in game. :]
