Question for ya'll.

This will sound a bit weird but...due to the passing of my real life grey I'm looking for a special commission which includes him in place of my stalker. I'm not sure if I want him with my ranger, him with other pets, or him with mini's (yeah, I'm a bit indecisive lately). Here's the question...am I better off posting a "looking for special commission" thread or having a contest and seeing what the talented artists here at guru can come up with?

I personally think you should put him with your ranger, since it seems that your ranger is your ingame version of you. And a contest might be nice, you'll get more than one picture done

Thanks for the feedback. I better go look for Sectus' first contest (500k) to see how he set that one up.

I'm guessing Grey was your rl pet, and I am very sorry to hear that I am an animal lover bordering on pure insanity. Our house is more of an animal sanctuary than anything else. At one point we had 5 dogs, now we have 3 and double digit cats. They are all rescues, either we found them or got them from a shelter.

If your ranger is your favorite character, I would go with that. I would also suggest that you ask for the highest resolution possible, because you can get the drawing printed on poster size photo paper for around 15 dollars,
a 20X30, which you can then frame and hang up as a tribute to your pet. I'm sure there are lots of places where you can do this, but this is where I have been printing some of our commissions, and they look AMAZING

Our bedroom is quickly filling up with some amazing talent. You can also get a T-Shirt, Mouse pad, mug... name it... they have it.

take care

These are the latest pieces I've got...

A new version of My ranger and pet by Starr the Insane, with a background change. I love the humor of having my ranger teach Buffalo how to use a bow.




Both our rangers by Eela. I love her style and love the drawing. It's tender and sweet. Another amazing drawing by a very talented artist. This was the first commission she did with 2 characters, and what a fine job she did.




And these are our pets, again a first for Eela, and another fine job. I love it.



These are 2 versions of the same drawing by Morag D. The First one was called Friends 'til the End, and my ranger and pet were depicted on our final sleep. The emotions I felt when I saw it are hard to describe. As much as I loved the picture, I felt so terribly sad looking at Buffalo, that I asked Morag to please make us sleep as in resting by adding a dream bubble over Buffalo. Now I see that the little butthead doesn't dream about me, he dreams with FOOD!!! I also started thinking that I seriously need therapy
Both versions are fantastic, I honestly love them.

Thanks for the suggestions. We're a bit the same way here only we seem to have gone for exotics; 4 ratties, 2 rabbits, 1 chinchilla, and we adopted a new greyhound last week. She's not a replacement for Lance, but she has already worked her way into our hearts.

Thanks Starr. I'll be posting something this week hopefully. I've got to get some pics of Lance on the net first.

Here's my latest commission, this one by Torikae.



When I saw it for the first time, it made me laugh and clap. Lance is surprised that one of his 'stuffies' is alive.

Welcome to the club, Morag, and totally cute pic, Garreth.

I've felt a bit of push for some OGAWC gatherings, so I was thinking maybe we could set up not just a single date for activities, but a constant. Something like every Sunday, 2pm PST, or Mondays at 6:30pm, or something like that [not those times exactly, just examples]. If you guys wanna leave what times are best for you, I'll try to sort something out.
