Yeah, so apparently the last time I posted a journal was a year ago. Go figure. I'm just -that- lazy. I'm -NOT- living with my mom, I've been living in Tampa for 11 months, in my own apartment, and going to college.

Not a very exciting journal I know, I was jut tired of reading that out of date journal entry on my page :p

Free art applications are temporarily PAUSED. I've got quite a flood of folks interested, and had no time since presenting the offer to get anything done, so until I get at least 2-4 done, I'm Denying any new requests. BUT! If you want one, but missed your opportunity, check back again now and then, because chances are I WILL be opening them again!


YES! Free, but very unreliable character art available here on this very deviant's own page!



>>>>>>>>>Do Not whisper me on furc about this<<<<<<<<,
>>>>>>>Also! Send in note with AS MUCH DETAIL as you can produce<<<<<<<<< >>>>>>>.DO NOT COMMENT YOUR INFO ON THE JOURNAL<<<<<<<<<<
>>>>>>>>NOTE ME<<<<<<<<<<<<

FREE! Of course, there has to be a reason, and there is. I'm selfish? yes, I am, so selfish in fact that i realized trying to draw random non-characters for exercise in arts is sort of dumb, those don't go towards anything and I lose motivation. If I were to have something to work on that I knew would be appreciated and put to use though, I suspect I'll be able to work on, and complete more pieces.

SO Here's my first downer. Just cause you send me your info doesn't mean I will draw your character, though I just might, also, if you ask for a certain position or situation, I may in fact draw your suggested character in the said position, but maybe not... I guess my point is, I really like the idea of doing art more often, and of helping people out!

---If you genuinely like my art--- and aren't just asking out of "zomg ______ needs arts or nobody will give ArePeez" this is what you do:

>>>>>>>.DO NOT COMMENT YOUR INFO ON THE JOURNAL<<<<<<<<<<
>>>>>>>>NOTE ME<<<<<<<<<<<<

include links to reference material if you have things I might not recognize or need clarification,
any previous art of your character you think will help,
some info on personality so I know what emotion I oughta be aiming for
A specific outline of the character's species, size, shape, clothing, markings, scars, piercings and accessories.
And, the nature of the piece you want, sexy, happy, sad, uh....drunken? whatever!

I will probably message you back just to remind you that, yes I'm grateful for the info, but that I don't know when if ever I'll be able to complete the piece. that yes indeed I will try my damnedest to finish the gift, but that as I've stated, hopefully enough, nothings guaranteed.

PS. I might attempt multiple figures in the same drawing to get a handle on interaction, so If you have an idea for something like that, let me know, and include all such specific info on each individually and what sort of relationship they have so I know how they might interact. Ok, So WOOT!

My list so far is:

Dark Edan,
Sumatra....

Don't be shy now, I needs me some material!


>>>>>>>.DO NOT COMMENT YOUR INFO ON THE JOURNAL<<<<<<<<<<
>>>>>>>>NOTE ME<<<<<<<<<<<<


People have been expressing confusion about what to include! I don't get it, but in hopes of making things easier, I'm gonna smack a blank little table up here with some suggestions of what you mgiht want to include. It's gonna be longer and more elaborate than you need, but you don't have to use it, and if you do, you'll skip/cut out parts that don't apply.

character Name:
contact Info: (Just having a DA's enough-but if you include AIM I might be able to actually let you know when I'm working on your piece, and ask more specific details)
Species:
Age:
Coat color:
Marking color: Including marking styles if different from those of the real animal, or any animal.
Height/build: I don't need specifics, but lemme know if they're supposed to look tall or short, fat or thin, buff or femmy.)
Attitude: (so I know what they're probably doing)

It's not really necessary to fill this out or to have one you've made yourself be this elaborate, but these are the sorts of things I need to know about.

Body:
    Head:
        Eyes:
        Hair:
                (Color, style, length. Refs for style are REALLY helpful for me)
        Horns?:
                If so, what shape, and location, linking to real horns or an image of them actually on your character or even another for ref are good too)
        Ears: (if they're extra huge or small, lemme know)
        Tattoos/piercings:
        Make-up:
        Face more animal-y or human?: (If you have no preference, I prefer drawing human, so let me know you don't care either way)
        Jewelry:
        Anything else important but not listed!

TORSO:
        Well. The torso's only so big, but there are bits of info I can use that help a lot.
        rough estimate of breast size: (small, medium, larger. I'm not gonna draw you earth-devouring titties though. sorry. also, for men and women, if you aren't asking for them in clothing, do they have nipples? Traditionally only mammals do, but I've been surprised.)
        Any Piercings:
        Scars:
        Tattoos: (with reference if possible, otherwise i might be able to manage something pretty nifty on my own)
        Malformations? Something special or otherwise important..
        Belly button? Yes/no?

Appendages!:
        Arms:
                Length/build: (If your characters arms are uncommonly short and stubby, or long and lanky, I need to know.)
                Tattoos/scars, accessories again:
                Hands: (do they have human fingernails, or claws, or more feral hands in general.. avian or reptilian? Ref if you have one you know is what you want)
                Any handicaps/missing parts

        Legs: Length/Build:
                Human? or More animally?:
                Markings/scars/tats/piercings:
                Etc. Etc (this is really boring to write :p)
        
        Tail: if character has one, explain it and any differences between it and another, is is extra long or is it short?

        Wings:
                Size closed: Roughly how long they are when folded, nearly full body height? half body height
                Size open: How wide, if fully extended are they? Twice body height? tiny?
                Type: Bird, Bat, Fae, fins:
                Colors: If from an actual animal, a ref of a wing could help, if they're more traditionally just feather wings, where are the colors? all white?
                P.S. some wings are differently shaped, like, Classics opposed to Tris, so let me know if you care either way.

        Clothing!
                For a lot of people this will be easy, I don't refuse to draw nudity, so that being simplest, just let me know, other people tend to just have a tee and pants, but if you have a more elaborate idea, try to get me references of what you mean, because i find it's sort of difficult to describe clothing in words
                Dress? Pants and shirt? Nekked? Lingerie? skirt? so on and so forth.
