Heya! I want 1x Full Body Anime with 2 Animations if possible and 2x Chibi face portrait [1 Chibi with the name "Koji Sama" underneath it and another with the name "Spicy Petenut"!]

Character Name: Koji Sama

Reference Pictures:
http://tinypic.com/r/295beic/7
http://tinypic.com/r/25srfyp/7
http://tinypic.com/r/n6xnjs/7 [What i want the wings to look like]

Eye Colour:Brown

Personality: A Leader, Courageous, A Paragon xD (1 vs 500 guys theme?)

Pose:I would like his full body pose to be something similar to this GW2 wallpaper, try to think of Koji leading his army against the charr with his wings and his voltaic spear and tormented shield out and ready for battle : http://www.guildwars2.com/global/inc...09-800x600.jpg

Expression:
1)Imagine him screaming "charge!", like a paragon commanding his army! ^^


2) For the Chibi head, I would like him to grin, with a hint of smile (sort of cocky)

Style: Full body anime! Imagine him screaming "charge!", like a paragon commanding his army! ^^

Background: Kind of heavenly? Imagine Koji coming down from the sky [Kind of like Zeus] fighting some demon coming up from hell

Special: For full body anime, I would like you to put animated wings [spectral, yellowish like the wings on a paragon ingame when you cast a spell] and if possible, I would like you to animate his kilt as well [swaying back and forth]!

Offered Price:40Ectos +Tips ^^
Contact IGN:Koji Sama
Timezone:EST [Will be online alot]

whoaa, that's a lot of requests in one post.

You want all 3 pictures to be of the same character?

I'm going to have to decline the full body right off the bat - I'm not good at drawing male characters and you specifically requested an anime style, which is not something I'm offering at the time. I'm trying to get away from anime so that I can develop my own art style. The extra weapons/wings add on a lot of complexity, and to top it off you want animation and a dramatic background with extra characters [the demon]?!

Yeah.. no, your request isn't something I can realistically complete right now. Sorry >.>

Lol, it seems i got carried away abit! No not the demon, just the my character itself haha, was just trying to give you some imagination. We can work it out, your anime pics look really awesome thats why i requested it, I will be fine with you doing whatever style you feel most comfortable with. Is it a problem with you drawing my character itself or the the wings and weapon?

Unfortunately, with the character itself. You may have noticed that the majority of my non-chibi art is female characters. I'm bad at drawing male characters and trying to draw/photo trace is not enjoyable to me.

I'm glad you like my old anime style pics, but I'm no longer a fan of anime and do not want to draw anything in anime style.

The style issue is explained in a little more depth in my third post.

Are you going to add the GW wings to the ponies, and make them into Pegasus?

The ponies are freaking awesome.

Experimental piece looks good - the feet look off, as Hail pointed out, and her face seems a bit flat; try bringing her eyes a bit further down on the face (they should be at the middle of the head) and shortening the nose.

I like the sketchy coloring

@Hailfall/Verene - I think the left foot turned out alright, as far as the angle and pose are concerned.. the toenails may be too pointy/big though! I normally don't draw nails at all, so this was a first.

@Verene - The character is supposed to be looking slightly upwards, so the eyes are centered if you take that into account. It does look flat though, (actually the whole character looks flat) ... still not sure how to get the look I want when drawing realism D:

@Brandylynn - no problem, glad you're satisfied with it ;o

My guild Everlasting Sacred Path co-hosted district 10 of Pink Day in LA. I wasn't able to attend, but I donated a drawing:

I was happily surprised by that you donated a drawing. Also, we are currently in the same Alliance, yay ^^

Very cute pic, I like the highlight on the skirt; it looks very refined somehow. ^^
