News:
2/14/07 :: I have decided: Slots closed until I get my AFK, except for Experimentals. I still have that one slot open for 1k, and the style I want to try is Dogbite. It will be priced much higher than the 1k Experimental price if I think it looks good, so I suggest you take it. It looks nothing like my MS Paint art.

1/14/07 :: One experimental slot open. Cost is 1k. Style will likely be called Dogbite in the future, and ya you gotta use the form. :J

1/5/07 :: Slots still closed; probably until February. I am learning how to color lineart in photoshop, developing a new style, Mid Terms start next week, and I am driving with the Driver's Ed teacher after school often (he can give us our driving tests and licenses, and 330 minutes of driving with him lets us get both an insurance discount and eligible for the test). So ya I'm busy. An apology to Chew for not finishing her art over Christmas break (and still only half done :< )






Pricing/Payment:
Squeezy Paints: 1000g for Headshot, 1500g for Bust.
Metallix: 2500g for Headshot
Dirty: 500g for Headshot, 900g for Bust, 1300g for Waist.
Dogbite: Coming in February, but will be 4000g for Headshot, 5000g for Bust, 6000g for Waist, 7500g for Knee, and 9000 for Fullbody.

I do groups in all but Metallix. Multiply the price by the amount of people, up to four.

Send me a trade with the gold/item inside, I will accept it when I am done and after you confirm it, I will send you your art. Thank you :]




Drawing time:
Sunday I do not work on art. I work somewhat slowly depending on what you order, and keep in mind I am using a laptop with a touchpad. I do not have a graphics tablet and I mostly work in MS Paint (or I used to anyway, in my Freebie thread etc). I usually get too involved in the art and try to perfect it, which makes it take longer to finish than it is supposed to. You might be waiting an half an hour or up to two weeks, but very rarely longer.





Styles:
Squeezy Paints: Made in MS Paint. Developed to take no longer than an hour, but averages around half an hour depending on the avatar (ie, will take longer if I can't make out an item, haven't done an item before, etc). Sizes are headshot and bust.
Metallix: Made in MS Paint. Slightly more realistic than Squeezy Paints, but takes much longer due to the effects (over an hour). Headshot only.
Dirty: Made in openCanvas. Is kinda realistic (not much so) but uses dull colors. Takes about half an hour, more depending on avatar and size. Sizes available are headshot, bust and waist.
Dogbite: Colored in MS Paint, openCanvas, Photoshop and/or traditional media (including but not limited to crayons, colored pencils, oil pastels and highlighters). Mass artistic freedom; You might not even recognize some of the items when I am done with them. Sample coming very soon.
Doll: Not being developed at this time.
Experimental: Like the name says. Can be a style not yet established, a combination of established styles, or a combination of both established and unestablished styles. Slots not always open, and there are no samples because it will be different every time. The only style which may have absolutely no color.


Form: (erase parentheses please)
Eye Color: (don't say current)
Facial Expression: (leave blank if mouth is not to be visible)
Background: (yes or no)
Size: (read style section carefully for sizes available)
Style: (Squeezy Paint, Metallix, Dirty, or Dogbite)
Couples/Groups: (brb)
Avatar(s): (current or dream; OCs must have an avatar or I'm not doing it, sorry)


For those ordering Dogbite:
Color theme: (Pick two colors; if you choose Maroon and Lime, for example, then those are the two colors I will center it around. Will have other colors, but mostly those)

i have done nearly all hairstyles, most animals, and different skins

single-equip items i don't like drawing: bao(s?), crinkled drawstring tops, emo glasses, golden laurels, missy ribbons, nitemare scarves, punctured plaid button-ups, visors (except sun visors) and zorro masks.
multi-equip items i don't like drawing: bone dragon helms, chyaku norisu scarves, kitsune masks and lunar cloaks.

that is to say, they may not look too amazing. i might go overboard with my 'artistic freedom', and completely change the item to the point of where you have no idea what the hell it is


i also hate clashing colors; if you have a lime green and pink outfit, or a blue and red outfit, chances are i am going to change one of the colors (perhaps drastically if it's very bad!) so that they do not make icky weird lines (mostly digital art, but possibly traditional)
you have been warned wahmbulance
if you find the only instance of where i kept in icky weird lines because it made the item look good, you can get your art for free
I'm most definitely not hinting at things (i like hinting at things) but my favorite color schemes are maroon & lime, orange & yellow, purple & blue, and blue & green. this applies to dogbite only btw





If you found this message, add (CM) to your trade title somewhere. If your trade is waiting on me to accept when you find this message, you can cancel so that you can put it in the title. If you found this message after the trade was completed, sorry but too late :<

Jumpy is having scanner problems. Apparently this is common with XP. It should be fixed soon, I hope.

I am currently only doing pen/pencil Chibis because the only place my scanner works is on my laptop, where I can't ink and color because I suck at using a touchpad.
