Artpieces For Gil!

[Entity]

*COMMISSIONS ARE CURRENTLY FULL, Leave PM Requests please! ^^

 

Hellos, this is Emiiresa Abilyne/Lydahn Falahann/Ellerierre Arislaunde from Balmung. I'm not surprised that I'm not the only one who thought to try their hand at commissions for gil for Housing. After seeing a couple of nice Houses, I want to have my own for a future FC in the making, so for the first time in my life, I'm opening up commissions, except this one will be through gil!

 

I'm still not confident in my artstyle just yet to be charging real money; the artists and designers I look up to are much better than I am, so I have a lot to strive for as well as to improve on. That said don't be afraid to make more specific requests. I'm always up for a challenge or something new, as it expands my capabilities and what I can do. 

 

That said, however, for the time being I'm just going to do single-character drawings (one character in a single drawing), whether it's busts, headshots, portraits, full body shots, etc., and for those who prefer one over the other, I can do traditional, digital, or a combination of both, your choice, and inked, pencil, sketchy, etc. I'm a little unsure of how well I can color my pieces...I'm still trying to find a coloring style that works for me, but if you want it colored, I'll see what I can do. Depending on how well the commissions do, I may open up to more types of drawings, like group drawings or something more complex. But for now it's single character, so we'll see where things go from here.

 

Here are some of the starting prices for my artpieces:

 

Headshot/Portrait(Sketch): 15,000gil 

Headshot/Portrait(Inked): 30,000gil

Headshot/Portrait(Color): 40,000gil

 

Bust(Sketch): 45,000gil

Bust(Inked): 60,000gil

Bust(Color): 70,000gil

 

Full-Body(Sketch): 75,000gil

Full-Body(Inked): 100,000gil

Full-Body(Color): 125,000gil

 

*Prices for the Full-Body selections may change for the requester depending on the detail of the reference used and preferences desired.

 

And below here's some of my own work over the course of several years just so you know what I was and am still currently capable of as things are now:

Those FFXIV pieces are really really nice. Looks like its time for me to snatch more gil from my retainers.

[Faye]

Oooh, I may have to save up for some of your pretty art!

[Hyakki]

Ooh I'll bite!

 

I'd like an inked headshot sketch if you please. (Or maybe pencil? I really love the detail in your pencil sketches, would digital inked look the same?)

 

SKIN TONE: Tan

 

BUILD: mesomorph body type, medium muscle definition

 

HEIGHT: 71 ilms (6' 1")

 

HAIR COLOUR: reddish brown

 

HAIR STYLE: Currently a loosely slicked-back and somewhat messy pompadour. Alternate hairstyle is the Yoshi-P 'fro

 

MARKINGS: Tattoo on the left side of his face

 

EYE COLOUR: rust orange

 

REFERENCE IMAGES: link

 

EXPRESSION: Cheerful, cocky, smug (think Space Dandy)

 

DEMEANOR: Often laid back but impatient and hot-headded in tedious situations. He thinks he's hot stuff but he's kind of an idiot.

 

ATTIRE: Warrior AF1, casual attire consists of loose-fitting clothes and sandals or shirtless with short pants and sandals/bare feet

 

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Character is in early thirties, Pacific Islander facial structure (I tried to work with SE's facial options the best I could) handsome but he's no bishonen prettyboy. Up to you if you want to draw the tattoo or not (we'll just say its war paint) scar is a must though.

 

 

By the way your Elezen is gorgeous!

Sure! The inked versions are usually done in Photoshop, with the Pen Tool. It's been years since I've done a traditional ink since discovering that method lol. That said, the photoshop inking is MUCH more clean than if I were to do it traditionally. It would look very much like the 5th picture in my second post, if that's something you're alright with. But if you REALLY would rather have a traditional INK I can do that for you, it'll just be the cost of a pencil sketch but a little more.

[Entity]

Xieveral, I finished your drawing. If you want me to ink it like  the picture above I mentioned I'll get started =] Otherwise if you really want me to I can try and traditionally ink it. I'll be waiting for your response!

[Hyakki]

I'll go with digital this time around but your pencil work is seriously amazing! :thumbsup:

 

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do!

 

EDIT: I'm sorry about the late reply! I got pulled aside for dungeon spammage e_e

[Entity]

And here is your picture, Xieveral! If you're up for another commission just ask! Hope you like it! ^^

(If you want a full-size manageable file just send me an e-mail, apparently I couldn't attach the full-size version unless there's a way to do it, in which case I don't know >.<)

 

[Hyakki]

I absolutely love it! Thank you so much

[Entity]

Ah sure it's np, since you're my first customer, I'll give it to you for free =]

Oh and, in case people are wondering, the hair done in my first commission is NOT Vector (Don't even know how you "vector" hair anyways =P ). Every single strand you see in there was done individually using the pen tool. Just to solve any misunderstanding since I've gotten a couple of assumptions and questions. =]

Finally a lala request!  Here's Kasaris Rakhin's lalafell  getting excited about dragons!

 

[Blue]

I had been thinking for a week to make a thread asking for artisans willing to take my gil rather than money. I am so poor IRL I couldn't even afford an extra retainer subscription or any of the official soundtracks, nevermind art >_< gil though aren't too difficult to come by, I have several crafting jobs that do for that quite well.

 

I'll think about what I'd like to see made, and then I'll post my request! Thanks for creating this!

 

EDIT: For reference, how would you do with drawing something of different age from your model? Thinking of what I'd like, I find a picture of Jet'a as a child on top of my wishlist.

I think as long as I have a reference, I can work with what I have and make the proper age adjustments, assuming things such as the hair and eyes are/were fairly similar during their younger years, otherwise I would need more details. That would be an interesting thing to do so let me know when you're ready and I'll see what I can do! =]

[Blue]

Okay, then it's decided! I'd like a child version of Jet'a (with whatever style you used for this picture), full body. I'll let you decide whether it would look best coloured or not, I can afford either.

 

This is the adult model of Jet'a, with the hairstyle he would have had as a child.

 

Picture for hair

Picture for hair 2

Picture for hair 3

(Also, as a note, as a child he wouldn't have that X scar on his nose yet; he has the cheek tattoos on both sides of his face, and a blue teardrop tattoo, like Blue in my signature, though his hair will probably hide it.)

 

Just realized I have no pictures showing his tail, but he's got the wolf-like one typical of the Keepers (fluffy tail, if you want).

 

The age would be of a 5-7 years old, the son of a family of hunters living in a tent camp in a forest. (Here's a part of a fanfiction related to that phase, if you want to read it to get an idea). I'll let you decide what clothes he would likely have worn in that environment, as well as the posture (I believe the less restrictions, the better results when it comes to art!). Add me (Jet'a Vann) as a friend so I can send you the initial 75,000 gil, and I'll pay the rest when I see with which style you decided to go for! ^^

HELLO People! A message just to let everyone know that I just recently got back into FFXIV about a week ago. I spent the past several months with my sub cancelled so I could save up the money for this guy  http://entlty.deviantart.com/art/My-Brand-New-CINTIQ-500723975

 

Anywho I just want those to know who were interested that I am now resuming the provision of artwork to those who were interested. The prices in my initial post are still the same as before, nothing's changed.

 

Atm I only have one extra spot open b/c I am now and still working on the two I still have from before (A lot has happened and I've just been really busy but now things are looking up). Anyway, after I finish my current obligations I'll be happy to take on more requests!

 

*Send me private messages if you are interested in making a request! I'm not too worried on that unless that starts to pile up, in which case I'll have to set a limit on requests, should it reach that point.

[Ilwe'ran]

Yup, I would like a full body color please, I send you a pm !

[Lilira Lira]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes.

 

I'll PM you at a more acceptable hour..

And here's the sketch for young Jet'a Vann! I found it a little difficult on how to draw him in terms of what he should be doing. Taking a look at the mini-story, I decided this would be best. Excluding other circumstances that kept me from doing this much sooner, it didn't take too long. Anywho I apologize for the delay and hope you like it! ^^
