Portrait style art?

Well... I need practice.... xD and I love to color and I need to get off my butt and get in the swing of commissions.

EXAMPLE! (bear with me, >.< I'm not that great at it yet.... I know it's got tons of issues)
FIST.jpg
(Character the drawing is based off of. http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k252/Rikaflare/Evenbettersuperspecialawesomearmor.jpg)

So, to start I'm only offering portrait style.... possibly waist up if I'm having a good day. b:embarrass When I get more confident in my drawing style, maybe I'll start to offer more. I know this example really isn't portrait.... buuuutttt.... it's a good example of what I can do I guess. If you do want something, give me a good reference pic or two or three and specify whether or not you want it in black and white or color. I can try to do it up all fancy if you want to use it as part of a siggy or something. I can also do semi-realistic or chibi, or just ... well, cartoony. and you may want to specify eye color since I can't always see it in the screenshots. Also, give me an attitude to portray and I'll try to get it across xD Expressions are fun.

Here goes, Fire away and I'll pick some random characters.

Finished Arts!
(I will post all finished arts of characters in this section as I finish them. ^^ So perhaps you won't have to scroll to find your art if I did indeed finish it.)

*Vyllina
*Fleuri
*Zoe
*Natura
*Sajra

    I would love a portrait. I do not have any good ideas for an "action" though, right now! (I have some ideas, but I do not know enough about your specialties to know which would be good ones. So maybe if you want to draw my character you could pick something you think looks nice? But if you want to try a screenshot of me stooping -- diving like a hawk -- that would be really wonderful... I just can not think of an angle that would work for that. But if you have suggestions, I will be happy to take screenshots! :)

    Here are some screenshots of my character. Let me know if you need something different in my screenshots?

    Thank you (for offering, even if you do not have enough time for mine! but especially thank you if you draw for me! :)

    If you do not mind working in pastels, I would love a colored portrait!

    Oh, thank you for offering your services! As the others have stated above, I would love to have my toon drawn. The style that you have posted here is fine, and I would like to see her in color. However, B&W can also be very striking as well. She has lavendar eyes to match her hair. I don't really have a preference on attitude or pose, just whatever strikes your artistic side as you begin to create.

    Here are a few pics:

    'ello there, just a few friendly tips...your char drawing is great but...it's wearing armour, right? i recommend you use more shadows and mid-tones to give it a more metal-like appearance. as for the face, i have no negative comments, would love if you could draw my char one day.

    anyway, keep up the good work b:victory

    Thanks for the tips and I know what you mean about the armor but.... ^^;; The picture I looked at for the reference, the armor wasn't really shiny o.o It confused me a little but I think that the red would look kinda funny really shiny. The rest of it though xD I suppose I could make the boarder a little shinier. I actually... um.. kinda half-assed this one >.< I got really tired near the end and just didn't put in the extra detail that I should have. I also got a little annoyed with how imperfect my lines were so I just kinda came to a stopping point and left it. My deviantart page is http://rikaflare.deviantart.com if you or anyone else would like to see more of what I can do ^^ this certainly isn't my best, just my only real attempt at drawing my PW character.

    As for the commissions, I have finished lineart for both Fleuri and Zoe and I'm working on the line art for Vyllina. I hope to start coloring and posting them tomorrow. ^^ I'm still accepting requests, just... um... keep in mind the time that I'm going to be putting into these.

    well i know what you mean, the lvl 40-50 heavy armour doesn't even look metal-like in game...though it should heh, talkin here about going beyond borders and limits. Anyway your artwork is good, i might send in a screenshot of my char when i'm 53+ and get some decent gear. Imo, the mage equip until lvl 50 is pretty lame. so, waiting for better days.

    Nice deviant page, btw b:pleased

    They may finish out of order as some of them require more detail than others, I will post them as I finish.

    Thank you! I really appreciate how hard you have to work to do these!

    I wish I could give you something in exchange, in game, but we are on different servers. But I am thinking nice thoughts about you, if that helps? (And maybe I will think of something better? I am trying...)

    Thanks. ^^ I didn't get to finish yours first but I'm working on it o.o I hope you guys don't mind plain backgrounds. The characters I'm working on hard enough. x_x



    Anyways, Here is the first one finished! I have two more in progress!(Including yours Fleuri. ^^)

    Oh, it's my Vyllina! Kyna, thank you so much! As I may have said before, my stick figures are usually up for debate. I think she looks great! The highlighting on the hair is incredible and I love the magic around her hand.

    Thank you a hundred times over! b:cute b:kiss

    Woowwws, you've got some real artistic talent there. b:cute
    I'd love it if you could draw my character, Antimony, preferably making the portrait of equal length and height (I would like to use it as my avatar on my faction's website, so a square image would be best). Full color please, and as for the emotion to be portrayed... I don't know, lol. It's up to you - whatever you think would fit her character best. ^^

    Okay, another art finished! This on is in a slightly different style than the other because I liked my line art enough to keep it.

    I hope you like it Fleuri! ^^ one of the more colorful ones I've done. I hope it doesn't look TOO vibrant on everyone else's computer, it looks okay on mine.

    Yes the christmas theme is very nice. Just read my sig.b:laugh

    The tail and ears are fine. I most likely would have made them white myself but the game does not allow that option.b:cry

    I really really like this drawing. Thank you!b:pleasedb:thanks

    I like the picture you drew of me -- I like your picture's overall structure, your choice of colors, your details and frills, your lettering, and I appreciate how much work you had to put into my picture.

    (edit: silly stuff deleted)

    Anyways, I like some of the impressions that your drawing leaves me with, but I worry that I made this too hard for you.

    (Also, I should probably have mentioned that my eyes do not have any color, but brown sort of works for that. Sorry!)

    Anyways, thank you again, your work really is lovely. I just wish I had contributed better.

    But you asked for my eye color, and I did not tell you. So that was really my fault! :(

    Also, I was inspecting myself from that angle today, and my chin was bigger than I thought. I was not being very observant! :(

    Anyways, thank you again! :) I do like your work! :)
