Stormflower

Why do you want to work at Soquili?: I'm trying to be more active in the shop, and I don't RP so this would give me a great excuse. I admire the current colorists and think I could expand my own skills working here. Not to mention you always have people interested in your work and the shop doesn't seem to be dying any time soon and I'm at a loss for B/C work.....I also really enjoy doing hair edits. ^_^

Comments: I also do shading templates, and did all of the line art at The Racetrack

Samples on the trial lines:

New Hair Style I think this looks much more professional. I will do a few more references like this, but am going to leave the others up as well. Just wanted to note that the refs below will be a better example of expected quality.

Moved post.

Why do you want to work at Soquili?: Because this is my home on Gaia. This is the only shop I frequent on the site and the one I adore. I love seeing the new soq come out through breedings/events/etc. and can't help but want to be a part of it.
Comments: I don't have experience being a colorist because I attempted it once (back in 200 cool and the shop died within two months of me being there (all the other colorists/staff disappeared). Disheartened I didn't try to reenter the colorist side of B/C shops until now. The photobucket is a mix of my own art (lines/everything), some edited and colored, and some just colored. Click the images to see description, which tells you what it is. Also made a lion base to demonstrate coloring/editing. Shall be continually editing in as I work on them.

Why do you want to work at Soquili?: I love the shop :3 Don't get me wrong, I do love the shop, but I think the real reason why I want to work here is because I want to improve. I feel like having the chance to work at Soquili will open the opportunity for me to improve. I've been working a little bit with Mind on my newer ponies, and even though she was it was 'brutally honest', it didn't seem mean to me at all. I'm not sure if that's a good reason, but yes, I want to improve and better my artistic talent.
Comments: I feel like some don't reflect my full ability xD; Some of them I feel are kind of old (even if it's only a few months). I'm... quite critical of my own work oxo;

it hasn't been updated in a while.. though I just submitted a few newer pieces of art and will be submitting more.
Why do you want to work at Soquili?: Several reasons; I have always admired the shop for it's variety and the depth of the stories and characters. I applied here once before, 2 years ago I think, and since then I've learned so much on my own. I wouldn't reapply if I didn't think I could be an asset to the staff. ^^ And finally, because I am forever a student and would love to learn from the experiences this shop has to offer.
Comments: ..sorry the app is a little long..I wanted you to have the most accurate representation of my skills as I could provide. Thank you for your time! :3
