[OOC] The City of Gems

[Loony]

@Akayaofthemoon@HaltingBlooper I always am welcome to taking in requests, since you guys are friends. And I'm sure @Salmon would be more than happy to draw for you to, if you so choose instead. Frankly both of us could use the practice for tablet arting.

Hoping my art's come to the point in which I can sell it and save up to move out, but I'm not gonna charge anyone I'm friends with if they're not willing or able to, now that I'm closer and closer to 18. O v O b

Damn, can you believe that I was in 10th grade when the first RP started up? Time sure does fly...

[Akayaofthemoon]

@Loony

Yeah, time really does fly. It seems like not so long ago ^_^

[Archmage MC]

@Loony Hey if you have the style I'm looking for, I'll commission a pic from ya. Although I'm pretty particular on quality and the stuff.

If you can draw a pokemon like they do for the anime you'll have it all set.

If any other artist wants to show me some work I'll also extend the offer to them. I'll pay via paypal :P.

[Loony]

@Archmage MC Heheh, depends on what pokemon. As a general rule, bird pokemon and spherical pokemon are my best bets, while quadruped pokemon - especially dog like ones - are not what I'd call my strong point. I tend to draw stylized works more often than trying to imitate a certain artstyle so cost might have to go up a bit on that solely because I'll need to study for a bit.

As for any other works, honestly my style is about as consistent as my time spent on the guild. Sometimes I'm here for nearly every waking hour, and other times I'll disappear for a month. Orz

7 examples of my super consistent artstyle, all of humans or near-humans to demonstrate.
Only consistency is that it's scribbly as heck because I have 0 motor skills so I tried to pass it off as a stylistic thing //whEEZES

[+]

"Organic" styles, those that come naturally to me










"Plastic" styles, me trying to imitate a certain style after studying:


Hybrid between lucky star and gokudo artstyle (suggested by friend)


Attempt at mimicing Undertale's intro scene without resorting to pixel art

Not all of these are recent (one's over a year old) but I'm too lazy to go get my tablet and give more recent stuff //whEEZES

I also won't be 18 quite yet, so there's also that to keep in mind. Paypal may not be a thing for a bit, and even then I need to set up proper guidelines for commission requests since there's...ahem...some territory I am not willing to partake in.

[Archmage MC]

@Loony Thats a bit better than I can draw so its not what I'm looking for. Need 'cleaner' art if that makes sense. I also have really shaky hands so yeah.

If you can figure out photoshop or GIMP (Free photoshop with slightly less options) and clean up your sketchiness there I'll gladly request something. It'll be humanoid no doubt. Almost cartoony in a way too.

[Loony]

@Archmage MC I can try cleaner art but in all honest it's gonna be a bit more costy on my end because I have really bad motor skills. Pair that with GAD and pills that only add to the shakiness, it'll take me a looooong while to clean up.

Seriously, you should see my actual sketch layers. It's hell.

I don't like using GIMP - the layout's strange and not to my taste. And Clipart Studio is way less costly than Photoshop - which is what I use most often and what all the images there were made with.

Ironically, my cleanest and debatably nicest artwork comes from using MS Paint of all things. I do have a mouse again to use the program but it's really, really time consuming for me. If you don't want me using MS Paint really the cleanest it gets is the animu drawing on there.

Probably best to look elsewhere. ; V ; b Thanks for the offer though.

[Archmage MC]

@Loony Yeah sorry. Need a smooth cartoony look with a bit of anime bits, AKA a pokemon more or less. Your art style works really well when your looking into getting something like dark deco though or punk which is pretty popular.

Do you know how to line and ink a picture? That would drastically improve your art, though I wouldn't need the inking bits.

[Loony]

@Archmage MC

I know how to line and ink a picture, but honestly only do so cleanly with MS Paint. Sorry.

The closest I have available on my computer (tablet won't boot up) that looks like the pokemon style is

this, another 'plastic' style, though I don't remember the name of the source.

I can try giving an example of a pokemon replica but otherwise I really do think it's best if you look elsewhere...

[Raijinslayer]

@Loony@SalmonHey, would either of you mind doing some of Seraphinite and Reggie? I'd love to see your guy's takes on them.

[Loony]

@Raijinslayer You know, it's been a hella long time since I drew Reggieve, the number one BrOTP. Why the heck not.

A written description would be nice to include because I wouldn't wanna make a carbon copy design of a another character's design ^ ^"

[Raijinslayer]

@LoonyI'll get on ot as soon as I can get on a computer, and thanks a bunch!

[Loony]

@Raijinslayer Alrighty! We'll discuss in the same place we discussed backstory stuff. O v O b

No prob Raijin!

[rocketrobie2]

@Loony Hey, I really like your art. I mean all the stuff you showed looks like diffrent styles but every one of 'em looks really Rad!

[BrassOtter]

@Loony hhhhhHHHHHHHHHH

Your art is so cute ;w; Why do I keep joining roleplays with people that do hella rad artttt

Also to both you and @Raijinslayer should I get in on this stuff to discuss mixing a bit of Eve into Carmen's background, or was I reading too much into that because sleepiness?

[Raijinslayer]

@BrassOtterYeah, I'll get you in on it after I play some video games. T.V's free and I have to capitalize on that.

[rocketrobie2]

@Raijinslayer I hear ya brotha. Shoot those asteroids while you can mi compadre!

[pyroman]

HELLO EVERYONE, I AM SPEAKING IN CAPS TO INTRODUCE A DEAR FRIEND OF MINE, SPINNA'S, AND LOON. @Salmon is super cool, but is paranoid and worrisome, so we must assure them that you're all the cool people we know you as.

[rocketrobie2]

@Salmon

WE ARE RAD, AS ARE YOU

WELCOME TO OUR HUMBUNKLE BUNCH OF MERRY LAND LUBBERS (unless one of you guys lives in a boat and havent told me yet.)

[Loony]

I, THE GREAT PAPYLOON, MUST AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT!

SAL IS A PRECIOUS FISH WHO WE MUST CHERISH.

PRAISE HER, DON'T BRAISE HER.

FISH ARE FRIENDS, NOT FOOD.

PLEASE ACCEPT HER OR I WILL FIGHT

@BrassOtter@rocketrobie2 Thank you both ; V ; and yeah, we'll incorperate Eve in with Carmen. Move over Dork Squad, there's a new BrOT3
