Damn... if I wasn't sitting here in Australia with a 256kbit connection and a 5gb cap, which means pretty much no way to get on GW, I'd get a commission done:P
Oh well, I emptied my storage before I left anyway:P Bummer

Verene and Hailfall's commissions, Mark's gone.

Hailfall · Jul 25, 2009, 07:11 PM // 19:11

oh wow that is awesome. Kinda a Terminator look to it with the eye.. looks nice

Kerwyn Nasilan · Jul 25, 2009, 07:44 PM // 19:44

Holy shit that necro looks amazing

Smilin' Assassin · Jul 26, 2009, 12:58 PM // 12:58

I like your style ~ Shala in particular (Hailfall's necro), your Miller influences come across clearly here
I wonder .. just how crazy are you exactly~?
Are you insane enough to paint little Ala~?

Frank Miller, SFIV ~ you have bold and dark tastes .. let's see how you'd handle Alacrity ..

.. after she's been forced to slaughter yet another stance Monk or Defy Pain War .. by necessity slow brutal and messy ~
She's returned with trophies of the fallen, holding her spoils up proudly to her masters.
Imagine your pet ferret has run rampant in the neighbour's hutch, and proudly returned to you bearing Flopsy's prize-winning ears ~

Specifically, I am after something like this pose/angle
http://flash750.deviantart.com/art/Laura-M-2-85448681
but Alacrity is cupping a pair of enormous eyeballs, freshly torn from their sockets, and up to her elbows in ichor.
Ala is very teeny ~ even so, I think the eyes could be exaggerated to baseball-size (at least) for a balance of modesty, suspension of disbelief, and artistic wtf-ness.

Give her a pixylike countenance bearing a beatific smile, here's Ala's mugshots
http://s275.photobucket.com/albums/j...00AlasFace.jpg

Alacrity is meant to be trim and ripped
http://s275.photobucket.com/albums/j...ent=bikini.jpg
she could be an extra in 300, or SFIV for that matter

Clothing refs: none of those silly costumes, she's only clad in blood

Allup, what's the damage~?
that is, for a Torso, Ascending, Black & White - but I also want a splash of colour, Miller~style (as you did for Shala)
.. a piddling 6k+15~? I don't thinkso, I'll offer you double.
Unleash that magic, let's see you at your baddest.
I want this tattooed in Glint's blood, over the stretched hide of Kanaxai, using Mallyx's splintered clavicle ~

to borrow a cue from Blue, this genre calls for a heartwrenching ballad ~ Roy Orbison comes to mind: "You Got It", "Crying", "Pretty Woman", or even that candy coloured clown song ..
Shall we suggest a dress code as well~? paint this in your underwear, the weather ought to be warm enough

*Before you agree to this undertaking, we should wait for our mod to bestow his blessings
~ let's see;
no chaos gloves: she's got blood gloves instead, check
no warrior armour: no clothes at all, check
no guys: Ala is a little muscly, but petite & feminine, check
no nipples nor anime-butt: waistup, with strategic arm position & eyeball size, check
no gibs: hm ..

It may be that we'll hafta conduct this privately.
Unlucky is partial to bribes, so if that is what it takes, draw his mesmer doing something similar, I'll pay (@ normal rates for his).
You can do Katherine first, consider her a practice run.
Naturally he'll want Katherine's face & body, not Ala's
http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/7884/gw006c.jpg
And Unlucky may prefer her in a different pose, or featuring other organs (her own I mean ..)
In either case, just do eet

On the other hand, should you find this all a wee bit twisted, I shall be compelled to forward this request to one of the more cutesy artists in this corner of Guru, and see if they can chibify it.

Or we can go for one of your standard options ..

aboo · Jul 26, 2009, 07:37 PM // 19:37

It shall be done, though I'm a little unclear as to whether you literally want her tattooed in dragon blood and dressed in demons. (I could still do it, I just need to know if you actually want Kanaxai's severed head on a pike or something).

That particularly bit of cloudiness aside, there will be in the next week some things I need to get done for college and such, so finished commissions may be a bit sparse in the near future.

Unlucky Slayer · Jul 26, 2009, 07:44 PM // 19:44

Yay Bribes! lol

As for the mature content. As long as its posted as a url and not the image itself there is no problem from me. Just need to label it as mature content. IE: NSFW around the url.

~ I was speaking figuratively; translation: "go all-out with the details please"

Otherwise it's really not that complicated, the scene as a whole is quite straightforward.

~ @ Unlucky: you may want something different for Katherine, you've got some time to think about how you'd like aboo to depict her, but you might as well make the most of his darker art.
I can totally see Katherine in Sin City, noir befits her.
You may wish to upgrade to a fullbody, but in this bold and dramatic style, more mileage/details will be had from a halfbody.

aboo · Jul 26, 2009, 10:59 PM // 22:59

Wait, is Unlucky looking for a commission too? Apparently with the addition of an NSFW tag, there's no need to bribe.

of course, but this is for his unsung services to Nolani ~
the giving and receiving of bribes is an artform, yknow

That would be pretty cool actually... Would love to see her in a raunchy Sin City Style piece. Havent really been able to show that side of her lately. =3

Now this is where the bribe part comes in...

Me = Broke in GW lol. Anymore I dont bother with commissions unless they're free or bribe. Mainly because I dont play gw enough to actually make any money for said commissions. Otherwise I'd be all over them.

yep, Alacrity will cover that:}
I'd planned to run a competition ~ 6 months ago, but have hardly logged into guru much, been insanely busy in RL all this year, and likely to be so until next year at least~! so the funds for the comp are now being put to better use:}
I am frequenting here more often now, what with all the activity lately~!

please feel free to specify what you'd like, or we can let aboo compose it to his heart's content ..
you may see Katherine in Jessica Alba's role, or as one of the OldTown girls ..
so a fullbody with action will work well too (tho I personally think halfbody b/w with a splash of colour has the most impact)
anyhow, you & aboo talk over what you'd like & Ala will pick up the tab ~ this round's on her:}

yep, and aboo, please do Unlucky's commish before Ala's, I'm actually looking forwards to seeing Katherine in SinCity more than the one of Alacrity~!

Very nice stuff here. I love your picture of Hailfall's necro.

Well, to celebrate my ranger's beating Factions and my completion of 2 whole commissions in a single sitting, I'd love to get a picture done.

Character: Jiyu Sakurai, my Ranger
Personality: Tough, streetwise but loves the outdoors, survivalistic
References:

Basically my idea is this: She and Yuki (that's the tiger) are running through an alley in Kaineng (though that would not be in the picture I guess, just some flavor); she is leaning forward and he is alongside her. This would be black and white, hopefully with a single strong light source towards the front of them.

I'm not sure what you would categorize a running pose as, and I don't know how much you want to charge for the pet, but anyway yeah I guess I can pay whatever so long as it's reasonable.

Song to go with the image: O... Saya (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHUQht1HRmY).

As long as it is in the Sin City style and she keeps her glasses, I'm all for being surprised. =3

Alright, I'm back, and back to workin' on commissions!

Currently working on Ryan Bucek's - I've got substantial progress goin' on in here, I think, and I think it is incredible enough an experience to share with you all.

Without further ado, I present (WIP - seriously, this is as WIP as it gets) Ryan Bucek's ranger in all his glory.

I call this piece, "Ranger in omne tempus", the Forever-Ranger!

Look into his eyes and see the resolution of Nature and all her fury.

Watch and be amazed by his incredible ability to nock not one, but three arrows in defense of the forests!

It is not two arrows!

It is more.

Edit: In case you've been completely blown away by this superlative display of artistic acuity, I also accept payment in huge piles of money.
