About this little Art Auction

This is a very special little art auction. I've never done anything like this at a solo level, and I'm quite nervous as to what the results may be. But to business!

There are two different styles that I am offering; one is my standard, which is like a dear old friend. My other style, stylized-realism, is a newer friend and its a tedious process.

Standard- A piece of art that has been penciled and then inked. Then scanned and finally colored on the computer.
Stylized Realism- A piece of art completely drawn on the computer. Best results come from headshots. Best results come from pictures with photograph references with a clear sight of details and colors.

I am a very picky artist in such that I demand a lot from my buyers. I believe that every piece of art should be treated as though it was loved. When art is loved, you can always tell. In order to love your picture, I have to have a good communication with you. I want to know about you or your OC in a very indepth way. If I can get into the mind of you or your OC, I can get a better feel for the mood or setting.



Free Art! The plus of hanging out here. Gifted at random, at my pleasure, and free of charge; what person wouldn't want to hang out?

First random gift: to Artistic Intentions

Art either finished or in progress during duration of this auction:

Expectations

Samples of the variety of art that I do, and some of my most recent works. I will post full scale images of the pictures upon the demand that I find. Most of these were pieces submitted as contest entries, or as gifts to very special people. Please look carefully and note that I love the use of vibrant colors together, images that are darker and sensual. And that is what I consider to be my strengths. I enjoy doing backgrounds. It helps lend to the general mood of a scene. I don't by any stretch or means of the word, consider myself anything more than amateur in that field though.

However, my dA is Twilightwrought for the particularly curious.


Bid Ladder:
< 500K, 1 standard style, fully colored, at most 3/4 length, depends on the position
1,000K < 1 realism hybrid style or 1 standard style, choice of winner
ABs - 3 or + pictures of winner's choosing

Rules and Conduct

* Follow the Terms of Service at all times
* Do not steal my art, or remove my signature from any of my pieces. My art style is unique and I will find you.
* I reserve the right to refuse to draw some people or cancel an order. I am a finicky creature with whims that change.
* Bid only what YOU CAN AFFORD!
* Avoid retracting bids, as repeated offenders will find themselves on the Black List. No one ever comes back to the White List after they've been so darkly marked.
* Do not SPAM the thread, bumping is okay.
* Be polite to other bidders and myself, it will make you more friends and less enemies.
* Please DO NOT PM me unless I say otherwise.
* DO NOT beg in here, that means my guests and myself included ... that's what the Chatterbox is for.

TRADES-Out of good faith, you will start the trade when I have informed you that I am ready to start your picture. I will accept. I will not expect you to finalize until you've seen the WIP of your picture. Once the WIP is approved, then finalize the trade, and I'll send you the picture.

No exceptions unless at my own pleasure.

I didn't think I had to do this but unfortunately..

BLACK LISTED

: If you see anyone with this name, ignore them. Its the same person attacking me and they want nothing more than attention. But we shall not waste one moment more of our energy on them. Please notify me if this person contacts you in private, or is in any thread of mine. They are a stalker of the worst sort, don't give any leverage.

What Will and Will Not Be Done
I am very flexible and reasonable. I enjoy a good challenge to further better my skills. Ask if you have any questions, I don't bite.

WILL
Males --masculine or feminine--
Females
OC's
Moderate animal qualities
*Yaoi however my strength at this point does not lie in multiple subject pictures
**Nudity

MIGHT BE SWAYED
Cluttered avi's. Please...no? They're hard to locate and generally I do best in a realm where limitations and restrictions aren't so clearly defined. I like my artistic license. (Laughs)

WONT
Mecha or robotics.
'Furries'--exceptions can be made. It requires research, reference pictures and time.
Buck teeth, unibrows. I'm sorry.

((To be discovered))

** Nudity is not porn. The body is beautiful and I enjoy drawing a figure, but you will never see anything graphic or rated X. Suggestive..yes, but I consider that nudity.

*Again; tastefully commissioned. I have to stare at this for hours. I refuse to spend my time on a picture that I find distasteful. Final word.

To a dear friend, Kelahnus, who without his assistance and skills, this art auction would not have looked so delicious.
