Cool Mistical Miss' commission thread

Hello fellow art lovers,

So, I decided I could do some commission work aswell (till now I have done mostly art trades and a few requests).

Because of the thread "say no to commission queues" I will try out some ways of doing commissions to see what fits me best.

First of all I'm going to try out something wacky.

Price per amount of time invested on drawing.

I was thinking around 2k per 15 minutes for starters because I'm not that good :P and I like to draw quick. This way both the rich can get what they want, and the poor can get what they like.

Now I don't want to do some half drawn bodies so I have figured a way to solve that aswell.

Just name the global price range, chances are I will dive under it a bit or walk over it a bit to make the body/background complete. Needless to say, more time means + colour, short time = sketch.

I can do both digitally and hand drawn/coloured art.

I will list some of my work and the time it took me:

From old to new:

http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...s/Melandru.jpg
~3 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...ruFinished.jpg
~5-6 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...dBalthazar.jpg
~5 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...aSketchOne.jpg
~1,5 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...Gurupeople.jpg
~can't remember short for each, but long in total (like half 15 minutes to half an hour for most of the characters)
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...miss/Varda.jpg
~1 hour
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...ffHighwind.jpg
~1,5 hour

~1,5 hour
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...irdcultist.jpg
~2 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...uettesteam.jpg
~4 hours I think
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6..._miss/Mila.jpg
~2 hours (darn I hate it that I drew those legs too short :S)
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...or15kglads.jpg
~1,5 hour
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...kerinwoods.jpg
~3-4 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...ynnetryout.jpg
~45 mins
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...s/Dontmess.jpg
~2 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...iss/MoragD.jpg
~2 hours
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...agoMortis1.jpg
~2 hours (hating legs)(and shoulders)
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...ss/Noanian.jpg
~4-5 hours (first time digital, took some time to figure it all out)
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...Lunacolour.jpg
~4 hours (trying out oil on canvas digital, its a horror, I don't think I'm going to finish it)
http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...s/mummie-1.jpg
~2,5 hours I think, found out about the layer system :P

As for how to post your commission request:

Pictures, small bit of backgroundinformation so I know what the character(s) is(/are) like.
Ingame name
Price range you are looking for (art trades are cool aswell )
Digital/pencil/watercolour/other paint/crayons/colored pencils/whatever pick one :P or two ^^

Some additional information: I currently have to work hard on a school project but I often find myself doing other things >.< so I could work on some commissions.

I will work down the list, but I may do some works at the same time, meaning that a 5 hour piece will probably be finished in several days, and a 1 hour piece may come inbetween.

No more than 5 people on the waiting/working on list. No reserving! You better check the threads often!

I won't draw the same person twice in a row, perhaps when there is a big gap I will.

Oh wow, I'm so excited about being first in line... I would so love to have one of your drawings of my monk.

http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/4746/aralazq9.jpg is a few shots of my girl, although I'm happy to provide more if you need.
I've always thought of my monk being sweet, and innocent, almost angelic, if that's enough information? lol.. She seems so tiny, so she's almost like a little girl, just out to try and make the world a better place? My IGN is Arala Starsong, and I absolutely love the piece you did for Nian and Noanoa, so I guess that's the kind of work I'd be interested in, but I love your pencil sketches too.
Price really isn't a problem, so I'd just be happy with whatever takes your fancy, leave it up to your good taste to see how much work you want to put in.

Thankyou very much!

Ohh me likes ^^

Avella Reena( the pinky ranger bellow) is the kind of person( ehm character) who likes exploring uncharted areas.
Bold and free spirit would be what describes her best,serious when facing adversity, though she tends to have a very soft side for her fellow companion Branbal (white tiger).

You draw animals right? Please XD

Miscellaneous info:

Ign- Lynxius Pardonus ; Ara Seal

Concerning price ranges, it shouldnt be a problem as long as its not too expensive (over the 25k barrier XD)

Draw it however you like it, as long as you enjoy doing it i know it will come out good, (an happy artist is a good artist )

Avella Reena is wearing full ascended Canthan (15k) armour dyed a very pale pink.
The pet is a white tiger.

Happy drawing!

Yes I would like a picture of my necromancer, The Unforeseen, doing what the caster is doing in this picture:

http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...dBalthazar.jpg

It appears to be a big wave of death coming from his hands <_< and that is perfect for my character. Could you make him the only main person there and maybe some dead bodies and rotting corpses by The Unforeseen's feet as well as the bodies/things dying inside the wave of death.

Here are some screenshots of him:

http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/b...rent=gw061.jpg
http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/b...rent=gw060.jpg
http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/b...rent=gw059.jpg

I very much enjoy the color technique of this piece:

http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g6...ruFinished.jpg

It is totally up to you whether you would like to color it or not, either way will suffice for me. But if you do decide to color it, could you post a shot of it without color and shot with color please.

As for the price, I am not too concerned with it. I don't want any steep prices(50k+), but for the quality of the art I am more than willing to do so.

Keep up the great artwork.

EDIT: Here is the picture of the facial scar patern if it helps any:

http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/b...rent=gw062.jpg

I have no idea why I didn't have it on my character in the first place.
