++ Closed, picking winner.++ BUYING Art of MY Guy OCs. ++

[WoefulInfinity]

So, my "holiday" postcard has finally reached the top of my work list.

The only thing is, the only character I've solidified for it is one of my OCs, and he's a dude. Almost all my other OCs are dudes, and two dudes holding hands is a little too ghey for a postcard that I want to be able to send to my parents.

So, I'm looking for your girls. I'm also looking to buy art of my guys. Don't be shy, I have 5 million to spend, but I'm picky.

You may submit any character you possess the rights to, but note that I may make some design changes to fit the theme of the picture. For example, if your character is an anthro, I will draw them human. Meaning cat ear/tail/wings/white hair/zombie flesh stuff will be gone. I will also be modernizing my own characters. If you add a modernized, realistic profile to your character - maybe something plausible about how the two met up - your chances will increase exponentially.

The theme will be "Le Vent Nous Portera" - which translates, from French, to "the wind will take us." It was a song my Italian roommate used to play all the time. Basically, freewheeling, travel, and summer.
Here's a bunch of photographs that have the feel I'm looking for, so I've been using them as references: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v193/WoefulInfinity/ocphotorefs/levent/

You are paying nothing for this work. However, I reserve the right to make real money off of these postcards. I will send you a copy if you'd like.

No more than one person will 'win' a spot in this picture (all my guys, except maybe Kai, support monogamy). I reserve the right not to choose anyone if no one fits.

Modernized Profiles of Possible Guys (Haha, pick the one your girl would be most interested in):

Rivek Ailinar, the Jaded Immigrant

Rivek Ailinar
Rivek was born in Poland but moved to the United States around eight. He grew up in a densely populated, immigrant section of Baltimore and still retains a bit of accent. At twelve, he applied for a scholarship at a private school and received it because, although his English was sub par, he had 'excellent cross-country runner' written all over him. He still jokes that his greatest high school accomplishment was not getting shot. He was made fun of in school for being the obvious charity case - and it made him a little violent -, but he's gotten over it and is proud he earned what he makes. He finished a bachelors degree in chemical engineering from Carnegie Mellon - also on scholarship - and now repairs aircraft. Although raised Jewish, he has adopted more taoist beliefs, and no matter how hard he tries, how much he loves something or some one, he has to keep moving from one city to another.

Rivek likes girls who are on the fun-loving side who can bring him out of his reserved personality. As for looks, he likes his women short and thin but doesn't care much about cup size. History has shown he likes Caucasians - brunettes and redheads -, but hair style doesn't matter as long as he has something to run his fingers through. He is not particularly touchy-feely or sexual, so she'll have to settle with just having his arm around her shoulder.

Within his own universe, Rivek is a man-at-arms, a purchased servant, to a queen. He also has the power to turn into a bird and communicate with feather species. In his younger years, he maintained noble title, but lost it because his magic powers and religion are considered unholy. However, he maintains his dignity through his own force of personality and that of his friends, turning him into an eventual historical icon.

Bohren Tabirian, the All-American Sweetheart

Bohren Tabirian
Bohren grew up in the Midwest, the son of a prosperous farmer. Following family tradition, he went to Ohio State and became part of the football team. Agriculture and environmental science degree achieved, he continued along the path of tradition again and joined the United States Army. Now, working for the government has kept him going from place to place with no real home, and permanent friendships are conducted via cell phone. He has never been good at interpreting hidden feelings or remembering birthdays, but he badly wants someone he can hold when he goes to be every night. Maybe he'd even find a new job.

Bohren likes enthusiastic girls willing to make a commitment. In terms of body, he likes tall, slightly curvy girls with ample bosoms. If his girl can both cook him a good meal and kick his butt, she's perfect. She can't be too high-strung, or else he'd go insane trying to make her happy.

Within his own universe, Bohren is a standard kingdom knight with limited magic-nullifying power, so he would rather just beat everyone up with a longsword. He is good-natured and likes a hard drink. When things are going smoothly, he can talk to anyone and make them feel comfortable, but when situations are out of control, he responds with muted fury. He is also intensely loyal.

Kaiaden Voluska, the Idealistic Rebel

Kaiaden Voluska
Kai grew up in the Boston suburbs, and his father was a wealthy businessman who spent much of Kai's childhood overseas. His father died when he was young, though, and left most of that money in a trust fund. He's still not old enough to get it, so he lives with his twenty-something year old cousin in the city. He has a knack for getting into bars and getting into trouble. He has spent more time cutting of school than in it, but not for lack of intelligence. After all, he inherited his father's knack for economics and thinks he's smarter than half his teachers. He smokes, drinks, ********, whatever he feels like. However, he recently impregnated a girl, and it is causing him to take more responsibility with his life.

Kai will try anything once, so he needs a girl who's adventurous and a little loose with her morals - threesome anyone?. He's pretty short, so he'd prefer someone shorter, but again, as I said, he'll try anything. He doesn't have a particular type in terms of looks or ethnicity as long as she's not ugly.

Within his universe, Kai is a naval strategy prodigy. His father died when he was small, and he was adopted by a rebel group. His talent was soon discovered and put to good use where he captured a schooner dubbed the Surgent. In his spare time, he indulges in drinking, gambling, women, and calling himself a pirate captain.

Lucient Deleoil, the Blond Devil] Lucient Deloeil
Lucient hails from France and has an equally attractive twin brother, Jean. Although he has a strict code of honor, he will stop at nothing to get what he wants and then convince himself he has followed his beliefs.

Lucient likes girls who are naive, not spoiled by the material ways of the world. Physically, he is attracted to girls who remind him of his ex - round-faced, thin, and waif-like with lots of curly dark hair. It would also work best if she were on the quiet side.

Within his Universe, Lucient is sadistic and almost vampire-like. His brother, a true vampire, gave him a small amount of the vampire blood hoping it would save him. It did - and gave him the nice bonus of eternal youth (not immortality or the associated bloodsucking) -, but it also rendered him partially insane. He travels the world to take revenge on the brother who has damned him to hell.

Aidan Faulkner, the Affable Bartender

Aidan Faulkner
Aidan, if anything, tries hard. He wants to pay his way through college, so he's working two jobs constantly - barista by day, bartender by night, totally exhausted by later night. He develops middle-school crushes on girls he can't have, misses dates because of work, and shows up to class with black eyes from falling off his fold-out couch-bed. If anything, though, he has heart and knows how to listen when people are really having problems. Even if he can't do anything about them, he makes a good effort to make you feel better.

Aidan likes the girl next door types who can make him feel special. He wants his girlfriend to be his best friend, but he's been having rotten luck and ends up being attracted to girls who never notice him. He has no set racial type, but he likes them on the slim side.

Within his universe, Aidan is still a barista and a bartender, but not a student. Instead, he is a low-ranked Watcher, a human being gifted with superior physical prowess by the Fae to fight the evil forces of the Unseelie. The nightclub he bartends at is actually the headquarters for his sect. Unfortunately, he has developed feelings for a Fae, whose immortality will probably drive a rift between them forever.

So the girl will be on a motorcycle with the guy?

Ooh. I can see a couple of my OC's on the back of a motorcycle x] mm.
Can I enter multiple OCs, and would you be able to work without ref pictures?

[barefoot friar]

Ahh, how cool =D Here's mine, I hope she's interesting-ish:

Rose Yues, reference. Her colors are: brown skin, dark brown hair, and light brown eyes. I know her outfits are rather... fantasy-ish, but she'd wear anything. And it's hard to tell from the references, but she's very curvy (not really skinny), and a little short. She wears purple a lot.

Do you need to know about their personalities, too?

Yup. I need to post pics of the guy soon - He'll have a modern outfit re-design, though.

Within reason. Multiple OCs is fine - but there's a big difference between say, three and forty. Purely textual ref is also fine, unless you're giving me a novel.

Personality would help. :3 My boy's got one of his own, so he'd like soemone comparable that way, haha.

[Saku Pancakes]

I am considerably lacking in the developed female OC department. sweatdrop But, ummm, have some lovin's? heart

[Aiko x Hoshi]

Ah sorry @_@, I only have a girly boy OC. Good luck~

[Dr Euphony]

aww too bad, my OCs are girly boys too b/c i wish guys were girls and i'm a closet lesbian. rolleyes

[In.Debt]

I have two female OCs give me a second... not sure if you'll find them interesting though

Casual Scruthy
all the art of her

She is a dreamer, slightly extroverted, intelligent, carefree and loud. She loves music <3 Bad points include overly lazy and procrastinates like no tomorrow, often thinks too much and horrible with money.

She normally wears printed shirts (like this site) or band t-shirts with skinny/straight leg jeans, studded belt and sneakers like converses. She never wears red t-shirts although she'll wear red skirts teamed with boots (think combat and goth). Basically she's a rocker, however people describe her as cute more then sexy. Her wearing really outlandish clothes is a little more rare but does on occasion so you may draw them if you want <3

She about 17 and has a cute figure, her red hair falls just past her waist. She also has blue eyes not green. Cute figure = curves aka medium bust, nice waist and reasonable sized hips.

Favorite animals = pandas, platypuses, penguins, octopuses (yes this is the correct plural, feel free to argue with me though) and the arctic wolves.

Rose
ref 1
Holden
Lean
TEH RIPPER
wheniwakeup WARNING - some nudity
Vena
She is skeleton from the lower ribs down, however clothing sits on her as if she had flesh. Rose has no arms but instead manipulates objects for use of hands. Her clothing is not set you can make her wear what you wish minus pants. She always wears skirts/dresses, usually it a dull color. Her hair is long and always covers her left eye ignore the first ref in this regard. Her personality changes depending on which period of time it is/was. During the Victorian time she was outgoing, self centered and extravagant however during more modern times she's matured is more caring of others to the point of fault, however she now tends to stick to the shadows and avoids being seen like the plague. She gives off the impression of being apathetic and cold.

[WoefulInfinity]

Ashys - you have Aidan. Sorta. You have Ameir's wishful thinking?

Yaoi Bunny - Lol, yeah... the ghey sells well, but really, I can't show that to my parents. And besidees, my boy's ten times more picky when it comes to hooking up with other men.

Her name is Casual? o.O

[Menstrual Cramps]

I wish I could offer you a female riding partner, but my character does not sound like she is of the right style for this. Good Luck, I know you'll find one. heart

[tirbutt]

D;....

yeah I have no OC's

[would ja koindly]

l o v e is kind of crazy with a

I dunno. My girl's VERY picky when it comes to guys... but she does love motorcycles...

s p o o k y little boy like you

[barefoot friar]

Here's her personality, it uh... probably won't fit XD

"Coming from a small town with strict religious standards, Rose tries to be serene and prudent. However, she is strong-willed and not timid, despite how she tries to change herself. She is a bit close-minded, a good fighter, and inventive. She tries to be logical and think things through."
