Idly, I do take requests if you're patient and not too picky. God Bless artistic "liberties".

(Um... sorry Quarel ^^;;)

I don't do commissions because I can't promise a time frame. Could take me days, could take me months to get around to it. Lack of focus... easily distracted... and so on and so forth.

If you're interested, IM me - Fullmetalkittn
Or send a note on DeviantArt if you have an account there.
I dunno how many I'll take before I close the Request line though.

This is now how I ever wanted to picture the Baron. My eyes are bleeding and I need to vomit.

Guess you shouldn't have dared. Sorry :( I didn't think it was that bad...

>>...why is the Baron posing like a 20 year old WB star...<<
Why did I even bother posting it... -.-

Well regardless of these -lovely- comments... I have more requests than I thought I'd get and I'm not sure how long it will take to get around to them so I'm closing requests for now. If my stuff didn't make you puke or remind you of 80s television, and you still want a picture, email or im.. will let you know when/if I reopen requests.

>>Alexii<<
I will keep a slot open for you if you still want it.

Oh then by all means... Please show us what you think the baron should look like.

Not everyone has artistic talent and this was her idea of what Gyfford looks like.

I really like your style too. While this is not exactly what I would picture Gyfford to look like either, I think the piece in itself is very well done. I really like your work. If I didn't have an already amazing portrait of my character (<3 Tabby), I would definitly be sending a request.

How would you feel about doing God Art (specifically Albreda, Harawep or Murualla) or doing art of Famous people in DR history?

I would really love to see a portrait done of Albreda and can provide you many different variations of how she is viewed if you would be willing. Thanks in advance! (Or if you have a God preference, that could be cool too as long as it's not one of the lame ones that everyone follows or ones that are already on the DR website (except maybe Eluned, she is hideous)

Sorry for the double post.

>>This is now how I ever wanted to picture the Baron. My eyes are bleeding and I need to vomit.<<

That's the lovely thing about text. Assuming on our limited interaction that you are a competent and reasonable human being (which I believe could be correct), I think you could forget you ever saw it and continue to picture the Baron however you see fit.

Portraits don't always portray what our mind's eye does, which is also a major component in why books are 99% of the time better than movies. I mean, who would have thought Eluned would look so hideous? Of course, this is just my opinion as was yours about the bleeding eyes, however extreme it may have been.


Anyway, good work new DR artist. Look forward to seeing some more of your interpretations of how some of the people in DR look. It was great to browse through these.

:3 Sorry for the way late response. I don't generally browse this folder much. Actually, never even thought of doing the deities. It's a cool idea, especially with their aspects. I might toy around with it once I get the current batch of requests done.

Eventually~

Thanks for the compliments, Terra. And generally, my fanart stuff (which I'd sorta count the Gyfford picture to be considering the erm... artistic liberties... I took~) is of a taste. Some people can't get past the poses or subject matter to comment on the style or quality itself. ^^;

Excellent! If you do decide to do Gods, I would love to put in a request for Albreda and Harawep. Harawep, is of course, the hag who moves quicker than the eye can see, hunch backed with twin blades and a love of the black widow spider. Often times she is depicted as a S'kra. But not always.

And here's what I have on Albreda, the peace-keeper and cementer of alliances.

>l albreda icon
An elderly and handsome woman with silvered hair and wearing black robes reclines against a pillar. About her feet are strewn the tools of war, and the skeletons of victor and defeated, alike.

(I modeled my dedication amulet after this, so it's not that different, just a more tender side I think)
You tap a modest silver amulet symbolizing dedication to Albreda that you are wearing.
>l am
Etched onto one side of the medallion is the image of a regal woman clad in flowing robes solemnly walking barefoot through a war-torn battlefield. Amethyst tears streak down her face as she gazes down at the broken weapons strewn around her. On the other side of the medallion is the image of a bloated black widow spider crawling on a meticulous web.

I would even commission you to do these, when you are done with your current work of course.

Have to add, not quite how I pictured the baron (that's the beauty of text) BUT, that is VERY impressive work :)

I'd love to see more. (also, I don't have a whit of talent for drawing.. if you know Ed Emberly's books, thats as advanced as I get).
