Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ok. *waves* You obviously want some free art that is more twisted in nature or you wouldn't be here (unless you are one of my friends who randomly hang out here to keep me company... in which case... you would be here without really wanting anything but i digress.).

There are some things that you need to know before you ask for any art.



**
Please be aware of how often you emote bump the thread. A bump here or there is tolerable, but when we start stacking up multiple emote bumps in a row it starts to get a little past silly. If you are in a hurry, and just want to make a quick stop, alright... but in future posts, please try to have some conversation or to join current conversations already going on in the thread. :3 We don't mind, really!

Along the same lines, please no spammy multiple posting. as in just saying one word over and over again. every once in a while, I get it, but please.... not post after post! It really kills the flow of the thread and there is no way to really build a conversation out of that. D:

** Please don't just say " Draw me??" sweatdrop It freaks me out, kind of like I'm being put on the spot to come up with something killer. Just come in and talk, if you have an idea of something.. post it.


** I feel like a real b*****d having to say it, but... I'm not going to draw everyone who comes in. D: I feel bad having to say it. I just want this to be a no stress thing, so I'm only working on 1 picture at a time. It takes more hours then i'd like to admit inking each picture. ^.^;

** I don't have a lot of super a**l-retentive rules you have to follow... just... have some manners, ok? i'm an open-minded, bluntly speaking person who talks about everything and anything while cursing like a sailor. Say whatever the ******** you want, just be nice to the peeps here. Easy, right? :3

** Besides having to want something different then your average avvie cutie art, your avvie needs to be darkly inspiring or have an inspiring idea in the more twistedly dark theme. If your avvie is dressed like cute Little Red Riding Hood, ok, that's cool... but if you're going to get art from me, don't be surprised if you are drawn hopping joyfully down the forest path with grandmothers chopped up, bloody misc. body parts hanging out of your pic-nic basket and you're splattered with blood. If your avvie is dressed like a pretty princess frilly pink character, that's fine.... but that art from me will your princess holding prince charmings head. So... you kinda get the idea of what the art will be like now. 3nodding

** you can try hit and runs if you want... but, I'm terrible at remembering stuff and keeping things organized, and if you ask for art and then never come back... I'll probably forget. D: so stay!!! :3 I love (seriously) to talk.... please, stick around and have some chit chat while I work. (psst, you'll probably get art better if you hang about and I get to know you a little bit. wink )

** >> UPDATE!! << Ok, I was doing traditional grayscale acrylic ink style only... but, even though I was getting better with traditional, my digital art style started getting crappy because I forgot how to do things on my art programs! Getting rusty in one style or the other really sucks!! SO! Now the art you will receive here will be my digital style..... at least for a while so I can re-learn some of the tricks and effects that I used to know. Once I get my CG style back to normal, I will start doing both digital and traditional styles, depending on mood and/ or your avvie. surprised I normally do CG work or a big mix of CG & Traditional mediums. In this thread, I will be only doing traditional gray scale work (most likely >.> ). I love black & white and I normally ink with a paintbrush. I want to get better at making my line art smoother and my hand not so shaky. I also want to work on my ink wash coloring style. I might add some color to a picture, I might not. I do love black & white with just one brightly colored thing standing out. heart

** Tips... ok.... well.... I don't really want any, but I know some people feel bad if they don't tip. If you feel you must tip, ok sweatdrop but you really don't have to...alright? :3


** You guys are all my guinea pigs! MAHAHA!! twisted
