-------------------------------------------------------------
NOW OPEN! Welcome to my little shop of my random sketches and inked drawings~ <3 Feel free to look around and critique!
STORE HOURS: I'm usually here on weekdays in the afternoon from 3pm-6pm, on and off, of course. The weekend schedule is not regular. If you're a client waiting to recieve your commission, you don't need to check back on the thread (though the commission section is the first thing to be updated), I will PM you your graphic.
DISCLAIMER: The character featured in my banner is drawn by Yun Kouga-sensei, the creator of Loveless. Yes, I mooched it. La-dee-da, sorry for the confusion. I can't draw Soubi; everytime I try, he ends up looking like a 13 year old boy that's just been molested. <3;; For actual samples, PLEASE click on the links under the "Samples" section of this post.

Waow. There haven't been updates for quite some time, seeing as I've never really been online for the past few months. ._.; But yes, I forgot the update the updates yesterday w/ Kabidori's stuff. I also cleared out a bunch of old stats. If you aren't on the list, that means that your commission is no longer being considered/worked on.
11/23/05|11:40AM:
So I'm officially "getting there." <3 Good news, my anime club will no longer be ordering T-shirts, meaning I don't have to force myself to photoshop a design that I hate and had no control over (someone else drew it... D: ). Bad news, I'm taking the SATs and piano levels testing in a few months, meaing that the chaos resulting from music theory in the past will be reincarnated ten times stronger this time around. But more good news! I making some final touches on Fallen_Otaku's commission. Unfortunately, I didn't like how Yuri's photoshopped sketch turned out, so I'll be scrapping the first version and working on a new one with my new "LEVEL UP" skills at drawing hands (D: I forced myself to practice sketching hands for HOURS...)
11/06/05|1:25PM:
I'm prepared to give out refunds if I'm not able to finish the commissions I'm currently working on within the next week. D: Damn you insane workload and piano levels! *shakes fist* I'll be PMing people about their commissions.
10/20/05|3:45PM:
Okay kids, repeat after me: "ONLY CHIBI COMMISSIONS!" Yes, that's right. I am NOT taking any more commissions that are photoshopped or lined. NO MORE. I AM STILL ATTENDING SCHOOL. I really don't want to start doing an auction-type system where you have to bid for time slots. >.<;
10/20/05|3:35PM:
*cackles maniacally*
Yes, I realize that she looks anorexic, but I'm still in the process of fixing the proportions! <3 I decided to scrap the first version and go with a more lively pose! *sucks at poses* o.o
10/14/05|10:21PM:
Kyaha~ *puts commissions through magic art machine*
10/12/05|4:33PM:
I've decided to subtract a portion of the remaining fee for those that have accepted commissions. I'M SO SORRY FOR MY IDIOCY AND BUSY SCHOOL SCHEDULE! ;.;
10/11/05|2:50PM:
English essay + PSAT +AP Physics test = KABOOM! ... I've progressed as far as photoshopping the batch of the first three commissions on my priority list! *dies*
10/5/05|6:18PM:
I WILL ONLY BE TAKING REQUESTS FOR CHIBI ART FOR THE REST OF THIS WEEK!
Yeah, so my AP Physics test is over and done with, whew~ But my Calculus test is this Friday, so I may not be able to get everything photoshopped by then. ._. Rough sketches are coming along nicely, though!
10/4/05|6:24PM:
I added a new photoshopped sketch into my samples section. <3 It's the Ballet Girl that I did recently~
10/3/05|6:20AM:
I made a little icon for the thread! <3 It's the violin dude from the samples section that I just CGed a bit. XD; Only one person has asked for the link exchange so far....
10/2/05|11:50AM:
THERE IS NOW A CAP ON PHOTOSHOPPED SKETCHES! I WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY MORE UNTIL ONE WEEK FROM NOW.
Soubi's Art Corner is officially... under construction! Yay! I'm still accepting commissions, but unfortunately I haven't the time to finish making the thread pretty and sparkely just yet. ^^;
-------------------------------------------------------------
Tools of the trade:
-.05mm Mechanical pencil
-Sakura Micron Pigment Liner: .005-1mm
-Computer paper
-Tracing paper
-Photoshop CS
-Graphite shading pen
About Soubi:
I'm still in high school! I have AP classes and an unhealthy obsession with anime and cosplay! Please don't kill me about the completion dates~ ;.; I'm away during the day from morning till about 3 in the afternoon (that's 6pm to you east coast folk). And because of my insane homework load, I will usually be online more during the weekends. I tend to finish rough sketches really quickly, but I'm a**l about my photoshopping, so if you're wondering about why your commission is taking so long, there's your reason. Other than that, I'm a nice person, I swear! If you want to commission a neko-kun from me, expect to recieve it faster than if you're going for a romantic couple or something.
About the shop:
This shop might look familiar to some of you. I just carried over this art commission thread from my old account. I get to reuse my sample art~ XD Anyway, I've figured out a more time-efficient way to color my lineart in Photoshop, so the new prices reflect that. Huzzah!
-------------------------------------------------------------
READ THIS BEFORE ORDERING ANYTHING!
Before I commission anything, half of the price must be paid for insurance purposes. If you've recieved your piece and you aren't satisfied with the outcome, you can either ask for a refund or a fix job. However, I only refund 50% of the asking price due to labor time. The estimated completion date is only the TENTATIVE guess on when I'll complete your commission. I reserve the right to postpone if my schoolwork is getting the better of me. But as I stated in an earlier section of this post, I'm not a mean person. So I'll more than likely refund a portion of your payment for my idiocy and to remedy some of the inevitable guilt. As for commission status, please refer to the "commission" section of this post. That will be the first place that is updated with information if any progress has been made. Rough/preliminary sketches will be PMed to individual clients upon completion. REMINDER! Keep in mind that by commissioning an art piece from me, you are agreeing to this general contract.
Other things you ought to know before you order:
Lately I've been getting a lot of requests that are a bit out of my style range. This resulted in the acceptance of a lot of free rough sketches. I really hate to put watermarks on my drawings, but if I find that people are stealing them (or any of my sample drawings), I will be very sad. .... because I'll have to add watermarks. .... and that takes time out of doing commissions.
I often do freebie and trade art for my friends/people that have awesome art and request to do so. If you're interested feel free to PM/post. <3
I luuurve PMs. It makes me feel fuzzy and loved. <3; Just no spam, please.
I do not like constraints on drawing style. Being specific is on thing, but trying to get a piece of art a certain style for cheaper here is another. No. I also don't do exact replicas of pictures. I don't believe in auctioning for time slots. No. This isn't a first come first serve basis either. <3 I tend to do my commissions in batches; rough sketches first, lining, and then scanning and photoshopping.

XD Ah, no problem. They're both semi-androgynous. Take a looksee to see if you'd like them. I'd like a photoshop colored couple sketch, if that's okay.
It's a romantic relationship, so do what you'd like with them. Also, feel free to take liberties on their costumes and such.
The first character (uke, hah) is Rivek Ailinar: http://www.faintlyfeeling.net/codakrome/pgsit/rivekailinar.html
(if it asks you for a password, hit cancel.)
THe second character (eh, seme) is Bohren of Tabir. He doesn't have a profile page, but this is kind of a reference: http://www.deviantart.com/view/29048894/
He's dirty-blonde, and his hair is longish, like shaggy and length varying from his ears to his chin. His eyes are dark brown. If this ref isn't good enough (the pose is a little awkward to see around), I can draw another one.
I'd like the bracelet with the two feathers somewhere in the picture, if that's okay with you.

Nymphedora
Description: Fullbody sketche; Meilyr, ridding Ramses' back piggy back style, and maybe gnawing his hair
Reference:
Meilyr
Long hair in a high ponytail that hands almost to mid back. Her bangs are loose, framing her face. Large eyes, both of her ears are ringed in small hoops.
She's short but very fit, not very curvy. Long tail that isn't furred, except at the end, which has a big puff on it.
Her clothing is almost a Victorian riding style. Tall boots, tight pants and a dress coat. She often wears silk or lace, but isn't very girly in dress.

Ramses
6 feet, 2 inches tall.
Built slender but muscular.
Angular bone structure.
Eyes are rather large for a man and very deep, and dark with light flecks.
His lips are full, and his teeth are perfectly straight.
His hair is a bit longer than shoulder length, and very soft. He kind of has bangs, but they're long.
Ramses has long limbs, and fingers.
Though he doesn't wear them all the time, Ramses has silver wire framed glasses for reading. (Please don't draw them, unless they're in his hand)
Clothes: Romantic gothic. (Think Interview With the Vampire)

TC Crabtree
Description: Colored sketch (black + dark reds/maroon); Junsei, with the black cat ears, not specific about the type of shirt she's wearing as long as it's either black or maroon (or a mix). Ears kind of wilted; brooding sad facial expression with her head slightly tilted down, eyes peering off to the side like she's avoiding eye contact; arms one wrapped up over her chest; one holding her shoulder, her other either wrapped about her waist, or resting on her stomach, kind of holding her shirt up--just enough to see the torn heart mark under her navel; name somewhere on the pic.
