Me me me me! *goes off to grab pictures*

Full body colour with background for me too. I'd like a dreary, rainy background on an open dirt/grassy field. Sword slung over the shoulder, helmet in the other hand, evidence of a victorious (hard earned) battle on his person. I like the style in the last picture there, the black and white Theoden.

I'd love one please =)

I'd like a full color body with background. I'd like the background to be the remains of a battle with Yuki standing amongst the ruins with her bloodied sword in one hand and a severed head in the other. If it's a bit much just let me know and I'll water it down.
I'd like the style from the third picture =)

One for me too, please.

Full body, no background (unless you got a good idea for one). Leona leaning on her big hammer, wet with sweat and blood of her last foe. If pets are possible, then I'd like too see her white tiger to her feet.

EDIT:
Forgot to mention colored =)

I would like a Colour Full Body Portrait, no background of my paragon.


I would like it flying with the paragon wings like its descending from above or something but with white wings instead of the golden ones, like this

Hehe Saraphim, you have good art and clean lines, you should've been prepared for a massive influx of requests.

I expect your new pictures will be just as stunning as your previous works

Very nice art, I absolutely love the sketchy style of the Theoden picture can you make me an avatar of my ranger in that style? (I don't know how you call that style, but I really like the sketchy lines, it looks very realistic). I don't know if you can do that in color, because Theoden is in B&W, but if it's possible I'd like one in color (and otherwise B&W is fine too)

/edit: some better pictures





If you need more pictures, let me know You can draw her the way you want, I like the pose of Theoden, looking over his shoulder but that's not necessary

Yup told ya the demand was high. I've seen 2 other professional commission threads (well one was semi prof) and both filled quickly.
It's well worth the cost.

I'll be interested in a B&W Full Body Portrait, no background



edit:

I gotta read better first..

I would like to see her portrayed as the evil dark necro that she is, maybe right after she summoned a minion or when she is casting an spell.

I've been admiring your avatar image for a long time now Saraphim, and always wondered who drew it :P


Edit:
Could I please have a Full Colored Image?

I'd love to see him on the top of the mountain at night with the moon high in the sky overlooking snowcapped mountains, or maybe in a cave...

Could you have him holding a ball of fire, his head kinda like lowered but his face looking out at the viewer, with wide eyes and a lopsided cheeky grin.

He will have a Rainbow Phoenix pet [one title to go] and wields a Chrysocola staff.









If you need more images, let me know.

Thank you for your time and offering your wonderful talent

Well, I'm hoping you'll join in on my contest ^^ but aside from that I'd definately like a coloured avatar of my warrior.
Can you draw him with a nasty grin, and the kind of look in his eyes just like your orange/yellow elementalist? Like he's ready for battle.

Thanks!



this is the style I like:

We thought it was about time, seeing as we've been together for 16 years.. lol.

Have updated the list again, I can see I'm going to have to put Conan down for a few days at least.

Ooo awesome work! For such a good price I just have to send in a request. hehe

I'd like my main character, Tender Wolf, done. But I just want an avatar for here on Guru. And I'd like it just the head and shoulders please.

Here is a picture of Tender:



I'd like her wearing her elite druid armor dyed black, and if you do backgrounds, something like the one she's in is fine. She's usually in the Isle of Meditation guild hall by the waterfall. Oh, and if you could, please leave her face at that "somewhat smile, somewhat serious" thing. hehe

Also, if at all possible, could you somehow add her pet white wolf Howl in the shot? He's a big part of her. Oh, and the same for Urgoz's Longbow because it's something she's very proud to own.

I like this particular commission style: http://sarahow.co.uk/images/IF/halloween.jpg

Oh, and I'd like the format to be a jpg. Trying to think of everything here to make it easier on you with the PM's. hehe

If any of this is a problem, just let me know. Since this is only an avatar I'm sure certain things will be limited. But that's okay, I can live without the bow and Howl, but if you could add them in there, that would be great. If you need any other information, send me a PM and I'll be happy to answer you. Thanks!

Hi guys, sorry I've been absent this week. I did get a bit sucked in by Age of Conan, but mostly it's been work that's slowing me down and also (I suspect) some evil chicken... I spent most of yesterday being sick.

Lol, Tender. Might have trouble squeezing it all in but I'll see what I can do

Hey all...

Been having a few probs this last week. My aunt (mother's sister) died at the weekend, which while it didn't have a massive effect on myself (not a terribly close extended family)... it hit my mum like a ten ton truck. So I've been doing a lot of propping up on that front. So my apologies for not being around as much as I should.

Ok... so I've done a couple of rough (very rough) prelim sketches of Moral55 and Unlucky Slayer's characters which I'm posting here as an update.

Unlucky Slayer, I changed her to a sitting kneeling position.. good call I think it works better.. however I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to to do with the blade now. I was thinking maybe broken (eep!) and the shards scattered before her.


WIP here
. Some nudity, Not safe for Work.

Moral55 - I've gone for a bit of an Eve style of pose, though I'm not too sure I like the skull now. I think it might work better as some sort of invocation / spell effect. I've gone for the stone pieces with the candles as she's Tyrian, so it feels kinda right. I always associate those with the catacombs, Necromancer Muune and ofc my Guild Hall - the Isle of the Dead. This is just a rough line render again to get pose and feel and see what you think before I bump over to colour.

Balls.. hit post instead of preview...


WIP link is here
Nothing to worry about in this one, it's just that box.net doesn't allow hotlinking and I don't use Imageshack or Photobucket for posting artwork.

Anyway, so that's where I am at the moment. Sorry for the slowness. Once I get going I steam along reasonably well, but things have just got on top of me a bit this last week..
