Hello! Yep I don't mind at all if you wanna request one of your OCs, if I feel inspired enough I'll have fun whipping something up xD I just don't wanna promise anything to anyone in case things get busy etc

Really? You have super awesome art, it'd be a dream to have something drawn by you!
I'll take my chance then. Even if there's 0.01% of chance, I'll take it.
So here's my request. My OC Lyanda in this flowery(rose) dress.
[link]
As you can see, she's all dressed up. She usually look like this: [link] with straight hair uncurled. She's a "I don't care (insert blank face)" type of person, who's passive and do what she wants (but isn't aggressive).

haha thanks sweetie! ^_^; The reason I'm so open to requests is cause they basically force me to keep drawing/painting, I don't have any OCs of my own so I find it really hard to decide what to paint half the time. By the way do you mind linking to the flowery rose dress again? I clicked on both links but they seem to link to the same image. Unless my comp is going crazy on me again.

Oops. Here you go
[link]
The colors are not super accurate, but you get the point. ^^
Have you ever considered doing commissions? I mean you can basically get money AND be forced to draw. That's 2 birds with one stone.

Thank you for the watch! I feel honored that you chose to watch me

Emuraptors In reply to Keimichi [2013-03-29 05:23:25 +0000 UTC]

Hehe true true. The only thing is that I don't wanna be forced into drawing something I really don't want to, which is sometimes the case with commissions. Or maybe I just have bad luck LOL. And haha my pleasure, your art's pretty lovely already and I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress! By the way would you prefer Lyanda to have straight or curly hair with that dress? Also is her hair medium blue? I usually alter colours a little in my paintings to fit with the overall mood/scheme so I hope you wouldn't mind too much if that was the case. Still can't promise anything yet cause I'm working on multiple things at once but I AM interested in painting her, she'd make for a really pretty piece!! *__*

Keimichi In reply to Emuraptors [2013-03-29 05:42:59 +0000 UTC]

Her hair is still straight in general, just with a few parts curled...(A string under the rose on the left, and a few stray stings) Yeah, color is blue, slightly lighter than the sample. Yeah, I understand the whole color part since its part of the lighting. XD
I have few other (old) pic here that might help you [link] Her hair is shorter than this ref, but the general idea is the same.
[link]
Or I can invest time for a proper reference tmr OTL
I can't draw my own characters since well... It's so hard xox
Thank you >w< I've tried hard on the outfit ;v; I was very proud when I designed it, thought at the beginning it was made for an adoptable (hence the curly part which doesn't really fit in)

And on the commission thing, as the artist, you're not obliged to draw everything that other people throws at you. You can ask them to offer what they want you to draw, and then decide if you accept or not. Or, you can find people who want to commission art, see if you like their characters, and then ask them if they're willing to commission you.
If you don't have OCs... Well, you can always make commission money and buy adoptables? XD you can adopt characters made by other people for a bit of money or points, for free, or for art (ex: "draw to adopt", where the person who makes the best art of the character wins). Some people have really pretty designs. That might solve your whole "lack of OC to draw" part.
Still better than me who have OCs but can't make reference because I apparently don't know how to draw my own OCs. They come out bad quality compared to my commission art UvU;
Or maybe there's fan art?
Or start contests and stuff where people win free art? Idk, basically more interaction. That way it's more fun to draw.

Haha this is kind of a delayed reply but man, thank you SO much for taking the effort to type all that out for me!! *___* *honoured*

You've given me lots of great ideas to have a think about - it didn't even occur to me to buy adoptables or host contests! I go through a lot of ridiculous drawing blocks where I hate just about everything I paint up, but contests sound like heaps of fun!! *__* And I've always loved getting art from other people :3 Anyway I'll definitely keep you posted on Lyanda, need to get better at drawing bodies and stuff first LOL (in case you haven't noticed how just about everything in my gallery so far is just the waist up OTL) <3

You're welcome. XD
Actually, if you hosted an character design contest with your art as a prize, I'm sure lots of people would enter. Or just sell our art and buy adopts. There's plenty of fancy adopts out there. All you need to do is to watch or join a group. (I started making them like last week and I have watched plenty of adopt makers and in a week I have seen so many awesome ones. You get seriously addicted. I wasn't even planning to buy any, but I bought a few cheap ones already... OTL)
Ahaha, it's ok, pretty faces attract people. Body comes in second. XD

Emuraptors In reply to Loanathecat [2013-03-29 04:36:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah sorry if that didn't make sense, still not used to DA yet so wasn't entirely sure what you meant by requests. Basically you can feel free to suggest/ask for stuff and if I feel inspired I may paint up something at some point. I used to take sketch requests on other sites but I'm busier these days so can't promise anything
