I'd draw for your shares... Tomorrow

Postby Laerod » Sun Apr 01, 2012 2:02 am

Update: Further requests past GoonerPower's Mycroft won't be finished tonight.

Yes! You heard me! I will draw pictures for shares! Aelosia is handing out bikini pictures, but I fear the market is to saturated for me to try the same. Kat is handing out haiku, but alas, my wordsmithing isn't up to par. Reploid Seductions is using veiled threats, but unfortunately I don't think I'm scary enough... Archy has bling and eternal salvation, and I'm too agnostic to offer anything.

So I'll draw! But drawing takes time, so I can't dish it out too cheaply...

So, rules:
  • nothing that could get me in trouble
  • 1 character (this includes buildings, etc.)
  • additonal characters cost an extra half of the basic price
  • no backgrounds
  • links to things I don't know appreciated
  • payment, then art, since the art actually costs time, pencil lead, and ink whereas the shares you got for free
  • I retain the right to refuse any request even after payment, but will refund these

PRICE RANGE
(with examples)
500 shares nets you a pencil sketch:
Image

For a lovely 2500 shares, I'll ink it:
Image

For 10,000 shares, I'll color it:
Image

And lastly, should anyone give me more than 50,000 shares*, I'll complete a fully textured piece:
Image

*Pricing for the full piece will become cumulatively more expensive for later requests due to workload. These things take hours.



TO DO LIST
(with links to requests and completed items)

After Cut-off
  • Astrolinium - No request yet
  • United Districts of 1 - Request/Pending
  • Buffett and Colbert - Request/Pending

You intrigue me. Can you do anime characters?

Not very well, but I can swallow my pride and try.

You don't sound like you want to. But assuming you did, how would we proceed?

I really don't like anime for personal reasons, but I am whoring myself out here =P
You give me the required shares and make a request, I draw it. Completion time would be "as soon as possible" which would depend on how complex it is (sketches are fast, other things take longer) and how many other entries there are (which at this point is 0, so you wouldn't have to wait long).

Well...alright. If you're willing and able then I'm willing and paying. I'll give you 500 for a pencil sketch. You're free to take stylistic liberties if you want, I just want the character to be semi-recognizable and for the image to follow an overall theme. Here are the details I'm interested in:

I'm wanting something following the style of a propaganda poster. I'd like a young woman (early 20's) with her hair cut in a pageboy style in Danish military fatigues (preferably with a beret). You could use Hotaru Tomoe (Sailor Saturn) as a hairstyle/character reference, she's basically a younger version of what I have in mind. Since the sketch won't be in color, there's no need to worry about such things. The style should mimic this old Leninist poster, only replace Lenin with the woman and the Soviet flag with the Danish one.

Is this agreeable? Do you need more details?

Ink me a giant feline with angel wings chewing on the side of a tall building. It makes sense in context!

On both of them could you replace the Union Flag with my nation's flag? (to the left of this post)

I'll pay 500 shares for each one.

Sort of. I won't start unless you send me the shares first. However, I also have to finish Mushrenia's first. I'm afraid me drawing something is a lot of work (and technically worth a dollar amount), so I stand to lose a lot more in this transaction so I'm less willing to take the risks.

Right I've gave you 1,000 shares for both of them. Thanks! Enjoy the shares!

I'm afraid I'll have to say "Yes, I would mind", because coloring is a lot of work and 100 shares just isn't enough to justify it. (Not to mention I'd probably end up doing it with a mouse and that's just plain torture.)
