IѺN//Free [Closed]

[Lilium Ion]

Hello AF. Sadly, due to financial challenges, I can no longer afford to spend my time drawing freebies. Just the sheer amount of practice I've gotten just from doing this has helped me improve as an artist and I thank everyone for offering up your interesting characters for me to draw. I also thank everyone that helped to keep this thread alive by posting regularly. I hope that some day soon I can start doing this again.

I will still be around on Gaia, so feel free to PM me if you would like to talk, or if you would like to get in contact with me for information about real life commissions. Thanks!

■ Obviously, you must follow Gaia's Terms of Service.
■ If you choose to display my artwork, credit to me must be clearly visible.
■ You may not significantly alter my artwork unless I give you permission. You do not need to ask permission if you are just going to re-size or crop the image.
■ Do not try to argue with or persuade me if I choose not to draw you.
■ I love tips, but do not try to bribe me with one!



■ It might be a good idea to let me know if this will be used for reference. That way, I'll know not to put it in a pose that will obscure any part of the design.
■ When you receive art, I suggest you upload the image to your own image hosting site. My photobucket is subject to change at any time, which may result in broken links.
■ Turning on quote notification has benefits. You will receive WIP updates through quotes in my thread.
■ Feel free to request again if you have a different character to offer.

The more original and interesting your character is, the better. I enjoy a challenge.

✚ Females or Males
✚ Armor
✚ Cyborgs, Androids, Humanoid Robots
✚ Humanoid Aliens
✚ Strange and unique characters

These are not things I can't draw, but things I won't draw. I have my own aesthetic, and these things do not belong.

✖ "Cute" characters.
✖ Feminine males
✖ Children
✖ Fanart/Fan characters
✖ Avatars with dumb Gaia hats. (OMG, AFK, BTK, etc.)
✖ Objects that look like they are glued to the base with no respect to the laws of physics.

I don't normally request a lot of art, but a couple of people have expressed interest in drawing for me. I don't really make OCs since I don't roleplay or write, but I do have one character that I use for everything (video games, avatars, personal art). Here are the avatars.
