Lightbulb Araiia Freebies? ŏ_₀

Lots of freebie threads (and new artists) popping up lately.. so I decided I'll join the fray.

The freebies on this thread are not going to look anything like the art on my commission thread (Araiia's Commissions) ... I'm going to be taking this as an opportunity to draw some low-pressure art and experiment with styles.

I'm only picking the characters that inspire me - perhaps I should take an idea from Blue and ask you to post a song along with your character screenshot so I have something to listen to while drawing :] I like gothic rock and orchestral game music.

Also, I do check other people's threads, and if you've already gotten a ton of art for a certain character (or in general) then I'm probably going to draw for someone else ~____~ sorry.

More likely than not you'll end up getting either a lineart/sketch or something I drew on paper and scanned in.



go!

yayfirstpost! 8D

I wish I had the money to equip my "crew"-characters with better armour, if I could then you would have more characters to choose from. Atm they look horrid... D8
Anyways, my primary character and my best friend's primary;

Tzunedaine:



Zholn:



You can draw either of them, or both! I don't mind if you change armour on them, remove Zholn's hood (he's bald btw) or make up something completely original and crazy!
Tzunedaine is usually /Rt, Zholn is usually /W. If you want to do some crossing over armour, you're very welcome to do that, too!
Tzunedaine would love a Ritualist dress, for example.

I love orchestral music too! ^^ If you've got Spotify, how 'bout I share one of my playlists with you?

For Tzunedaine: Rob Dougan: Will You Follow Me? (I <3 that song)
For Zholn: Enigma: The Dream Of The Dolphin

Tzunedaine has roots in the Prophecies campaign and spends most of her life in the Shiverpeak Mountains, Zholn is from Tyria, but spent most his life in Cantha.

Well, I'm already having my character drawn by somebody else but I do have some song suggestions for you.

Any Resident Evil songs are very great to listen to when I write. Plus Moonlight Sonata is great too.

Here's mine if you wanna give it a shot

Lady Bethany Of Noh



For music suggestion, I'd have to say Beethoven's Symphony No.7 2nd Movement. By far, one of my favorites.

Looks like fun.

As for the music: This should sum her up nicely, Lux Aeterna By Clint Mansell.

Seeing as my war got a few free drawings lately you can try your hand at me nec:

Make sure to note the colored (yellow now) eyes. I think they are his best feature.

Also, can't get much more gothic rock than heavy metal on cellos

Love your art, here's to hoping for a freebie



As for music, a little recent Nightwish should do wonders. I'm thinking Cadence of Her Last Breath or for something a little longer and MOAR EPIC, this one.

Terrible sound quality on both, but that's Youtube for you.

Orchestral game music, eh? Hmm. I love those, so it's a bit hard to pick.
Oh well, my favourite character deserves epic bg:

Chrono Cross - Time's Scar

Alternatively: FFVI - Terra's Theme (which I had the wonderful experience of hearing live)

Hope you take interest in my little monkie

Those songs were awesome :D I'm a fan of Nightwish, although apparently it's way past time that I should update my playlist with newer songs.

The first one is a WoW machinima o.o >.> it brings back memories. So.. if you don't mind.. <_<
