[Free commission] Characters I can draw?
So, in order to solve my artist block, I thought I might ask, is there anyone wishing their characters to be drawn?
It's nothing too serious since I have school to take care of but once in awhile I want to make a piece.
Re: [Free commission] Characters I can draw?
Cool! Your art is awesome, I would like to suggest a character. Do whatever you want!
Personality: Quick witted, puts on a cool demeanor but is actually a spaz. In this story the characters have strange compulsions where they absolutely have to do something when they get the urge, in Joan's case it's slamming down a whole box of crackers (weird story I know). She's very self conscious and overly hard on herself for this making her appear as the "cool loner". Man, I don't like typing these.
Hair colour + style: Messy black hair, search Bilinda Butcher as reference for pretty much everything. That is how I've envisioned her.
Clothing: Open leather jacket, high waisted jeans and a quirky white shirt tucked in. Maybe a weird cartoon character on her shirt.
I'm going to re-open my character thread as well. Drop a suggestion if you want to do a swap!
Personality: Fierce, hardy, and stoic, Daina Allens has endured years of hardship fighting against the Hadian State Military. Having lost her dear friends in a raid she was in charge of, Daina's cheerful and outgoing personality had shattered into nothing more but a grim-dark cynic, believing only death and suffering is what awaits her future.
- Clothing: Olive-green military tunic resembling that of the German World War 1 Stormtroopers. The tunic is lengthened to just above the knees and has two breastpockets. A 4-pointed star is worn around the neck, with Daina's rank on the right collar and her former Party badge on the left. A round visor-less cap with a large braid hanging from the top matching the olive-green uniform colour is worn with a small star-in-circle at the front, resembling that of a Scottish bonnet and the German WW1 Cap. Heavy hiking boots are worn, and is typically covered by leather spats to keep mud out.
Nicely done! Again your art is great, really awesome facial details! Thanks a lot!
Hey are you still taking commissions? If so I have a character for you to draw.
By Gaia, that is fantastic MusicFreak! Great work there, my friend!
Inari is a goddess, a fox goddess to be exact.
She's from a story of mine, and perhaps the most striking mental image of her is her about to consume a human heart. She eats hearts and consumes the blood of humans to heal herself and gain power.
She wears a black, frilly dress, legs exposed. Appearance wise, she looks like a young adult woman, like someone in her 20's or maybe 30's.
Male, from the same story, MC of said story.
He's of light complexion, and has a puffy head of wavy hair, like a lion's mane. Best example I can give you is of Robert Plant's 1969 hairstyle, though it's probably a little more voluminous than that. Hair color is black.
He's a chill guy, smiles all the time, is pretty nice to people. He's around 20 years old.
I don't know, something beautiful yet melancholy.
I felt inspired by the splendid artwork you drew up MusicFreak, and so in my spare time, I decided to write a little piece to go along with it My thanks to you for drawing this.
The cries and moans of the broken and wounded soldiers lined the cracked cobblestone streets, the air clouded in smoke and fire. The booming of artillery and the snaps of gunfire could be heard in the distance, an endless echo in the skies. It was almost midday, yet the sun’s rays could not pierce the thick storm that had rose from the bitter fighting. The handful of medics present went down the row of troops stacked near the low wall, their faces bloodied, their uniforms tattered, and covered in deep-red bandages, checking each one as they came. A few had passed during that time, and laid blankets upon their still, lifeless bodies. Only sorrow and despair filled the men’s gazes, helpless as they were in their state. Their bodies exhausted, their spirit weak, they could only sit and wait as life passed them by.
Daina laid upon the sidewalk, watching her colleagues endure their pain, their agony, their suffering, and could only look back to her own comrades, the ones who had fought by her side since the day she joined. No longer were they there. No longer could she speak to them. No longer could they listen. No one to lend their shoulder. No one to offer a helping hand. No one. Her people were there, but still Daina was alone. Alone in this grim, dark world. There she sat, gazing at the horrors before her. She felt no tears, no emptiness, no emotion. Only the fatigue of battle. She felt only the numbness of her body, the aching of her muscles, her wet collars and battered clothes. To Daina, the only thought she had was that of weariness. Nothing more.
Soon, a column of Stormtroopers marched down the road, the clatter of their heavy boots rocking the pavement all in unison as they passed by the wounded. Daina gazed upon the men as they marched by. Their tunics were spotless, their rifles polished. Not one bore a scratch on their faces. It was clear these young men had not seen a day of combat in their lives, yet she knew all too well the fate that awaited them.
Also, I believe I've settled on my next request!
Personality: Optimistic, kind-hearted and self-righteous, Owen Harport previously served in the Union Militia as an errand boy before transferring over to the Legion of Terra in hopes of making a bigger difference in the Hadian Civil War. Unlike his superior Corporal Daina Allens, Owen still believes there is hope in the world and frequently shows it in his compassion to both his comrades and the enemy and his selfless acts to civilians. Owen is also known to be quite stubborn in this regard, particularly during his time in Boot Camp under the supervision of Corporal Allens. Daina had constantly tried to break Owen's overzealous spirit and dehumanize his view of the enemy during this time, yet even after all that, Owen refused to submit to Daina's mindset.
- Hair colour + style: Short, ruffled brown hair.
An Olive-green military tunic resembling that of the German World War 1 Stormtroopers. The tunic is lengthened to just above the knees and has two breastpockets. A 4-Pointed Star is worn around the neck with Owen's rank of Private on his Right Collar and the Party's 5-Pointed Star Badge on his Left Collar. A round visor-less cap with a large braid hanging from the top matching the olive-green uniform colour is worn with a small star-in-circle at the front, resembling that of a Scottish bonnet and the German WW1 Cap. Heavy hiking boots are worn, and is typically covered by leather spats to keep mud out. It should be around the same as Daina's uniform. The only difference is Owen's rank should be a single bar for Private, instead of Daina's double bar for Corporal.
To add to Owen's accessories is his personal pair of aviator goggles, which he uses to keep dust from flying into his eyes during battle, and a brown scarf he keeps tucked around his neck as a lucky charm.
Oh, I should probably mention a few things I totally overlooked the first time... the badge and rank you had on Daina is actually on backwards. Her left would be your right and vice-versa, and look like the one in mine's and WhiteCrows Same thing with the 4-pointed star around the neck. It's a 5-pointed star in Daina's picture, which would look a bit redundant with all those stars on her uniform Other than those, that should be it!
- Accessories + props: Pistol or Rifle. Optional.
I wonder if it's possible to have both Daina and Owen in the same frame doing something together... That'd be an interesting scene to write about Anyways, keep up the good work!
First of all i wanna say that you have some great talent and your art is amazing.
Figured i'd throw my hat in the ring, and hope for a chance to get the protagonist of my story brought to life.
Personality: At first glance he seems like he doesn't possess any sort of feelings (sort of a Kristen Stewart type), but it's a vast misconception from first hand impressions. Despite his apparent lack of emotion, he does possess emotions though he doesn't show them to anyone outside his close circle of friends/family. He possesses a somewhat inspired 'Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde' persona. His 'Mr. Hyde' persona represents the darkness in his heart and his sociopathic thirst for violence, where as the 'Dr. Jekyll' persona represents his day-to-day, calm, relaxed and slightly carefree side.
- Clothing: I always imagined him wearing a black three-piece suit minus the jacket/blazer with a white shirt and open collar/no tie. He also wears black leather gloves (not the typical driving gloves), to cover up his burned palms.
- Accessories + props: For the drawing i thought he'd be holding a damaged/torn hand woven scarf. In the original tale of Okuninushi while he's in the underworld, Suseri (Storm god Susanoo's daughter) gives him a scarf to protect him during his night in a chamber full snakes.
(Environment): (Leaned over a corner guardrailing similar to what's found on staircases.
- Additional info: I forgot to mention this thought, but Rex is covered in a ridiculous amount of scars, so the scarring to his forearms and neck are the only visible ones. He's got a scar that goes all the way around the neck (from when he was beheaded). As for the forearms, it's basically just bunch of random scarring varying from small cuts to larger scars and a healed bullet hole or two.
