Could I get an inked picture of a Grey Bureaucrat (not coloured of course).

They make up the countless button pushers and ink grinders of my nation, often still issuing laws and edicts on paper. They are identified by number as much as name and so this is often displayed on their uniform, which varies based on style, area and how casual their office is. In order to become a full citizen you need to serve two years in the bureaucracy and the Greys collect all the information they can from the population and the state of Sarrowquand.

Is 2500 shares ok?

I'm not entirely sure that's a good thing, but you have 2,500 more shares in your account.

Hours. Inks and pencils are easy, so it would take a lot to keep me working for a few days.

So, 2 characters, colored, would be 15,000 shares, yes?

How much reference do you need to draw a specific character?

Preferably a full body picture. If you want colors the ref will have to be in color too.

Almost full body image with legs cut off (assume the coat covers all but his boots)

another almost all body for clothing reference

In black and white ink. He should be looking kind of dejected.

Kay guys, I'm asking shares in advance. There's plenty of faces I don't know, so I'll be asking this from people I know and trust too, to be fair.

After some deliberation, I would like you to draw me (pics can be found here and here) acting buddy-buddy with the version of Batman from Batman: The Animated Series.

So I'm putting those people on the list whose shares have entered my account. The reason is simple: I can't see if I can trust you to pay me, but you can see that I've been completing every request so far. Also, I'm investing time, paper, and drawing materials while all everyone requesting something spends is shares, so I stand to lose more if cheated.

As such, I'll add your request to the list once the appropriate amount of shares is in my account. That's 500 for a pencil sketch, I believe.

10,000 shares for a coloured picture of a cow in a space suit.

It'd be awesome.

I realise you want the shares first, but an acknowledgement would be great before I did so.

Also, I need to work out how to do it.
