Talking hum, Alacrity's in~!

well, let's start with the first ever piece that anyone ever painted for Ala:
this gorgeous cel-shaded art by Nian <3
I love the haunted look of loneliness/sadness (which Ala covers up by appearing chirpy) ~

ravensong then created a series of drawings; there is so much detail and expression in these pictures, especially considering how fast he works~!
~ <3 action poses, and this one is in pencil done on yellowed paper so gives an aged effect, as if she were illustrated in a book

I then asked him to draw Ala (in photoshop), minus the cuteness~!

.. he did not one, but three versions, and Ala came out looking suitably menacing :}

I recently commissioned the cartoonist Fernando Serrano, he is a great guy and I had fun going over the pieces in my mangled Spanish~!@
.. the first I saw of his work was of modern or futuristic themes, so I thought, why not have some fun with that idea~?


imba much~?

these can all be seen in proper size in Alacrity's photobucket gallery


*Alacrity has been featured in works by other artists, but cannot submit them here yet as I have not yet received explicit permission to do so (no actual refusals, just artists who have not got round to returning my calls) .. shall show em according to their wishes ~

Thumbs up check this out~@

=======================================

***this beautiful painting of Alacrity in the Arid Sea was made in Paintshop Pro by Jessica Gaude.
She really put in so much extra detail, it's better appreciated in fullview, but here's a thumb for the lazy ~


=======================================

plus, these graphite sketches by Christina Smith whose work has been featured earlier by several other members here ~



*both artists are available for commissions ~ those interested in Rvaya's sketches might want to contact her before her prices go up (slightly) next month ..

Exclamation amnt I teh Art H0er~?!

========================

the comic artist hydek also includes martial arts amongst his talents, all the better to depict Alacrity as she'd appear if we could indulge in unarmed combat in GW:


she's poised to "Go For The Eyes" (or some other delicate portion of the anatomy~!)
edit: hydek shaded&coloured these for me. He is open for commissions and does the occasional request

=======================

this lovely piece by ghoner, I urge you to view in full :}

He is working on his webcomic, but if you have an interesting character or scene, you might tempt him from his projects ~ his current rates are *seriously* affordable .. am gonna get more commishes from him ~ twould be most selfish of me to keep him all to meself :}

Some new real-life commissions...

by Chibi-Rera. Usually not fond of chibis, but her style and coloring are spiffy. <3

by kisuu. Her pencil works are quite lovely. <3

Not a paid commission, but a freebie from an artist whose thread I was posting in. <3

Red face noes~! not moar Ala ~

WrenStormbringer has made quite a name for herself, particularly in equine art - and also with her beautiful scenery, as in this gorgeous depiction of Alacrity on one of her adventures ~

*Wren also is available for fantasy commissions - she loved my written bio of Ala so based her portrait more off that, than visual refs - always a refreshing change :}


BlancDelilah has a small but enthusiastic following, and a distinctive style that I can only describe as playful & edgy :}

* watch this artist, commissions will be opening soon .. and I'm gonna be in the queue for more~!

Wink this thread has been hijacked by pixies~!

hum, not Alacrity again .. ok surely some of you have masterpieces squirrelled away in your galleries~?

~ well, some stuff seen elsewhere plus others I haven't shared yet ..

=====================================

this playful pic of Ala dancing by Inu Cirrus, here from Commission Central

yep Ala's diametric nature shown in such a cute way:}
thankyou again Inu~!

=====================================

Lackshmana is an artist who has played GW and it shows~!

a very dynamic pose with Ala's most detailed costume ~
I have been toying with the idea of having this coloured .. but would that mess with the lovely shading he's done~?

here she is again, in colour this time ~ and with probably her most aggressive pose/expression to date

now Alacrity rarely gets mad but if this is what she's like, I'd hate to be the one to provoke her ..

yet another piece from Lacks soon .. watch this space ..

=====================================

another combat-ready pose from hydek; who'd think the cute lil pixie could look so badass~?

and she hasn't even drawn her weapons yet ..

unlike the above artists, hydek is unfamiliar with GW and messed up Ala's clothes - so she demanded he remove them~!

*Danger: nekkid Pixie alert*

actually, I never entailed seeing Ala unclad - altho I wanted an action pic, that nawty artist presented me with a sketch I could not resist; just had to have him ink & colour it as punishment~!
~ and so the corruption begins ..

Alacrity and friend, slightly censored

the one above is actually a WiP, finished product will look way cooler ~

barely censored - **not for the squeamish**

{for the faint of heart, I believe there is a version without the blood .. but posting any sort of link to that will no doubt overstep several boundaries ..}

/sigh, am afraid those who know Ala will now never look at her the same
:bats innocent eyelids:

=====================================

**MODS: if any of the above is too hot for Guru, please letme kno and shall happily excise the offending piece/s ~ of course you can always do your own stealth-edit ..

~ Alacrity has several commishes due, plus a bunch of requests, and is on the waitinglist for some cool artists ~ some pieces already done, others ready in days/weeks, tho most I don't expect for months .. shall update here every few weeks or so ~

A very nice sketch of Sanra I got from Nian: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...etchshades.jpg

2 commissions I got from rplatt which are relatively nsfw:

Arrow art tiem ~

another fabulous creation from ghoner

even those who are unfamiliar with the characters and setting oughta comprehend the gist of this ~

best viewed fullscreen, tho you'll need to scroll to see it all ~

regrettably, ghoner is not taking anymore commissions at the time of this post ~ presumably to focus on his webcomics.
Those who have a story they'd like depicted with thought and detail, at very good prices, would do well to keep their eye out for when he opens his commish list again ..

There are some really great works here, and form a great 'shopping list' for future comissions. It's kinda a shame the list of active artists who will draw for GW money is kinda shrinking, but hopefully it's just a glitch.

Anyway i've collated some of the comissions i've had done of Shan on my wiki page which can be found here http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Shan/Art_Gallery

They comprise of works done by such artists as Vinegar, GreyFox, Sab, Labenspai(of Healbot fame), Nian, Lilifrog, Nonoa, Rpvisions and meshsmoother to name but a few.

All but one of the images are work safe, bar that naughty Healbot who took some liberties.

As I get the time and more works done i'll expand on it, hopefully you'll enjoy my little collection. Naturally, comments are most welcome.
