Commission request closed until finished with this set of commissions! Feel free to comment, however.

I. My Art
After making the freebies thread, I got a lot of requests to see my other artwork. Unfortunately, I do not have access to a scanner, so all art I have are recent CGs. I recently made a DeviantArt account, latest submission: 5/31/09

Tools: Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet & Photoshop CS2

How I draw your GW character:
CG Process 1: Mesmer Alitta Shepard.
CG Process 2: Ritualist Mad Froggy.
CG Process 3: Elementalist Teh Geedee.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

II. Commissions

How I will do Commissions:
1. I will open Commissions for ONLY 5 people at a time.
2. After 5 people have requested, I will post that commissions are CLOSED.
3. Any requests after closing will be ignored (sorry!).
4. After I have finished all 5, I will do ONE freebie, picked from Free GW Character Art

here.
5. After that freebie, I will post/edit my post in this thread, that commissions are OPEN.
6. Repeat.

A. GW Art Examples
1. Necromancer upper body
2. Ranger upper body
3. Mesmer Alitta Shepard upper body
4. Dervish Allianora Fae headshot
5. Ritualist Mad Froggy headshot
6. Elementalist Teh Geedee upper body

B. Cost
Colored Headshot CG: 10k-20k. (depending on how much time I spent on it).
Colored Upper body CG: 20k. (About art trades, see "E")
Colored Full body CG: Rare, 50k+, depending on how much time I spend. (I will be picky about who I do full body CGs for.) Your full body CG will be just as detailed (face-wise) as the upper body CG.

C. Request Form
Please use at least a variation of this form. I will ignore you if all aspects are not complete!

Quote:

Character Name:
Commission Type
Class:
Eye Color: (Or indicate preference of accessories like blindfold, tattoos, floating things, etc)
Reference picture(s): (Include at least a simple screenshot of your character. I will ask for other views if I need to.)
Suggestions: (if you have any ideas for pose, etc, please suggest here, I will do my best to accomodate.)
Additional Info: (If you request a Full Body CG, this area is recommended! Please add any stories/background about your character.)

Note: I reserve the right not to accept a commission request regardless of the completion of this form.

D. Sample Request

Quote:

Character Name: Airen Shinrei
Upper body please
Class: Ranger
Eye Color: gray-green
Reference picture(s): character: [link], bow: [link]
Suggestions: I have no preference, up to you, thanks!

E. Art Trades
I am very willing to do an art trade with you instead of payment, but only if I have time! Please understand that non-art-trade requests will probably take first priority.
You can still request art trades after commission list is closed.

Icy The Mage · Apr 30, 2009, 05:00 AM // 05:00

Oooh great, I'll nab a spot on this posthaste! Glad I checked guru one last time before going to bed!

Character Name: Icy The Mage
Type: Full-body colour if you're not too picky about it, I'd gladly pay extra for your time ^^
Class: Elementalist
Eye Color: Striking Blue (It's not technically blue but I know you artists have a way of shaping reality

)
Reference picture(s):

Character:

http://i43.tinypic.com/s4bayd.jpg
http://i42.tinypic.com/qyietl.jpg
http://i43.tinypic.com/olhma.jpg

Weapons:
None, if you could simulate ice or frost/water being controlled by her, that would be amazing

Suggestions: Anything you do is up to you, just make it look nice and I'm sure I'll enjoy it! ^^

Aura Walker · Apr 30, 2009, 05:25 AM // 05:25

@IcyFiftyFive: First poster! ^^

I like the screenshots you have of your elementalist, especially the first 2. I will do my best for the full body CG you requested. But it'll probably be a week or two before I start.

Smilin' Assassin · Apr 30, 2009, 05:37 AM // 05:37

I'd love a Coloured UpperBody CG of Alacrity please ~
prettymuch the same format as per your freebies ..

Character Name: Alacrity Deathpixie
Class: Assassin
Eye Color: Brown
Reference pictures: imageshack or photobucket in case either doesn't work; here's her maskless mugshot
Suggestions: - Ala wears a sassy smile, one hand on her hip, the other balancing a daggerpoint on the tip of her finger.
or - flinging her blade at the viewer with either an evil smirk or a cheeky grin

hm, *if* you were gonna include a dagger, a small pointy one would be best ~ how about a sparkly Celestial ~ oughta come out beautifully in your style:}
If it's too flashy, one of the other Canthan skins might suit ..

I'll leave it to your artistic discretion whether to show Ala with or without mask/dagger ~

Gift3d · Apr 30, 2009, 05:39 AM // 05:39

You know, i don't usually tempt into the commission stuff, but i really really like your work and this time i'm gonna have to. Really great work, but at the time i'm posting this it says #5 is open. Hope it still is :P

Character name: Jasey Rae
Colored upper body please
Class: Paragon, female
Eye color: blue grayish
Reference picture 1: http://i43.tinypic.com/2nlhf7k.jpg
Reference picture 2: http://i41.tinypic.com/1z2g6mo.jpg
The only suggestion i'd have is i guess a bright background. I won't be too picky, i'm sure it'll turn out awesome.

But anyways, thanks. Regardless if you get to do mine or not, it's still really nice work.

Mad Froggy · Apr 30, 2009, 06:34 AM // 06:34

Ooh, a reserved spot, i feel like an important guy!

I'll take an upper body one for Huntsman red, the details are on your other thread, but ill repost them here just incase.

Name: Huntsman Red
Type: Upper Body
Class: Ranger, Male
Eyes: Brown
Reference:http://i40.tinypic.com/25570gy.jpg
Reference for bow (if you wish to include it):
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/File:...7s_Destiny.jpg
Suggestions: I would love the backround to be maguuma jungle-esque, and possibly include my lovely pet pig, Buta! You know me well enough, no smiling...

Aura Walker · Apr 30, 2009, 06:41 AM // 06:41

Commissions closed!

Er, just this once, I'll make an exception to the 5 rule. (too soft hearted!)

Seems like Smilin' Assassin and Gift3d posted at the same time. 6 it is!

Nemesis Xero · Apr 30, 2009, 07:18 AM // 07:18

Aargh, just a little too late

oh well, I'll keep an eye on this

Irilys · Apr 30, 2009, 09:47 AM // 09:47

Awwww too late, I should have check before going to sleep. Anyway I'll wait the end of the current commissions to try again ^^

StormX · Apr 30, 2009, 11:21 AM // 11:21

Doh, I saw this too late =(

footballfan159 · Apr 30, 2009, 12:57 PM // 12:57

E. Art Trades

Suggestions: I'd like something natural, calming, beautiful. I'd prefer just the face, until not much lower than the shoulders. Something in the lines of the Dervish you drew, which was beautiful, but then more from in the front. Maybe with her head a bit looking to the ground. I would also love some effects around it in a darker place which would light up her face, wether it be something like some Celestial stars, a bit of snow, or some kind of spell, I'd love it, but it shouldn't be too distracting. After all you're ofcourse still free in what you do

. And I trust you'll make it very nice anyway. ^^ Just my thoughts

.

Thanks alot for giving us this opportunity, and may I hope I get picked.

I'd use the artwork for everything I can think of :P, on my journal, in my bedroom, for my avatar, ...

Very nice art so far, you should seek some future in this mate

Um, basically, 2 artists trade pictures with each other--they draw each other's characters. In this case, it applies to GW character art.

EDIT:
and dimitjeeuuhh, you did request full body?

Hailfall · Apr 30, 2009, 06:39 PM // 18:39

aargh too late!

Yes, full body please

.

My request-post doesn't really reflect that, but I'd love a full body art. If you need more info, like I said bother me with it :P.

EDIT: I'd prefer something calm, no casting pose orso, more sad look. The rest is up to you

Coolpb · Apr 30, 2009, 09:52 PM // 21:52

Buggers, asked about your thread last night and went to bed 5 minutes too early. Possible to go ahead and post a request for a future list? Thanks ~ Kirabi

LeoX · Apr 30, 2009, 09:59 PM // 21:59

Some very nice art going on here, and pretty cheap I do say.

I remember people selling forum signatures for Runescape, those things were going for millions.

Chicken of the Seas · Apr 30, 2009, 11:08 PM // 23:08

Gah, I'm either too slow or the person doing commissions goes dead <_<

Aura Walker · Apr 30, 2009, 11:43 PM // 23:43

Wow o_o I'm really surprised at the uh...regrets here. XD

>_> I barely expected 5 people to request, let alone... all this. So many arts to do o_o;;
