BroodingFicus Posted January 13, 2014 Share #1 Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) UPDATE: TAKING COMMISSIONS I've finally got enough free time and a consistent enough schedule to take on commissions a bit more....well consistently. Starting out slow and cautious to see what I can actually manage while I have some time off coming up and then if there is still interest, I'll go from there. Additional characters are half the original price. Ex. to add a sibling, husband, friends head to a $10 bust sketch would be a total of $15. Will Do: original characters, couples, some gore, etc Won't Do: sexually explicit/graphic. Payment: Paypal is my preferred payment method. I plan to only take payment once I actively begin work on the piece itself. Aside from the sketches, I will show you a rough outline of what I have planned before finalizing it in case there are any last minute adjustments or requests. With digital work, I'm happy to fix smaller, reasonable things but will not fully rework the piece once the sketch is approved. Obviously that will be far less flexible with a traditional medium. Essentially once I am ready to begin your slot, I'll collect an email and invoice you via paypal. Once payment is received, I'll get going. If at any point due to injury or illness etc I am unable to complete a commission, I'll work with people to see if they wish to wait or have me refund them until I can continue. I don't anticipate any issues of that kind but life is life. Delivery: Once I've finished I can send you the scans or files to an email of your choice or through messages here as well. To Include: Do leave a note here on this thread with the slot you wish to take just so I can keep tabs of who put in what first. After that we can communicate through PM or email if you prefer for all the details. At that point anything you want to throw at me is welcome. Screenshots are obviously a near must or any references that might apply but if you have links to tumblrs for your characters or backstory, descriptions of scars, personality etc it'll go a long way to making the piece more uniquely them. Also let me know if there is a tumblr you use and would like me to link should it end up on my art tumblr down the line. My tumblr is in my signature if you want more examples of my work and my newest stuff is at the back end of this thread (aka please god don't look at the old stuff below this XD). Thanks all. SLOTS Sketches (traditional/digital) Color (traditional/digital) Watercolor (I'm newish to this medium but if there is interest in it I'll try to get my speed up so I can offer more.) Waitlist ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I've just started drawing FFXIV stuff but figured may as well make it a nest somewhere. I've been drawing in general for a long time, but its only been in the past few years that I put down the pencil and started trying to go digital now and then. So don't be surprised to see both popping up. Pencil and paper is still my first love after all. I stick mostly to my own characters and those of my rp partner but who knows. Hoping sharing will keep me motivated to doodle and the like. Nearly the first ever doodle of my Miqo'te Orumloix Pahjin (actually happened before I played the game ) Turned into this a few days later R'tali (friends character) Orum and Tali. Yes. This happens a lot. (Pen and Paper. Cleaned up in Painter) S'janna and her son (done for S'janna awhile back) Nahue and Manari (done for Nahue) Rinette (Done for Rinette) SKETCHY STUFF My Marauder Rhys Oathkeeper and Bell Winters (Friends Character) as...something. I was bored. The apkallu belongs to Rhys. Bells is just watching him so he doesn't get bloody. The twin characters of my friend and I, Koh'a (right) and Koh'to (left) Bajihiri as cubs. Current Project Orum after he was fleshed out and rped into proper existence as the wildman mutt he well and truly is.

Dyani Posted January 13, 2014 Share #2 Posted January 13, 2014 Dude! You have such a cool style! I like it. And your coloring is really well done. Keep up the work, man, this is awesome! Link to comment
Kismet Posted January 13, 2014 Share #3 Posted January 13, 2014 Simply gorgeous work. Never stop making such lovely art, please! Link to comment
S'maia Rahz Posted January 13, 2014 Share #5 Posted January 13, 2014 Ficus art is awesome art, and I love my Janna and S'anjha picture. Thank you so much Ficus <3 Link to comment
BroodingFicus Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share #6 Posted January 15, 2014 Thanks guys. Glad you like them S'janna. You were my first commission I ever did and my first baby Miqo'te. I will continue to tell my therapist its your fault I now find young Miqo'te so adorable. Link to comment
S'maia Rahz Posted January 15, 2014 Share #7 Posted January 15, 2014 Blame S'anjha. He has all the adorableness. I'm looking forward to when my friend's Keeper's kid introduces the little guy to mud. He'll have a new passtime to 'amuse' his mother with! Link to comment
Leencat Posted January 15, 2014 Share #8 Posted January 15, 2014 Your coloring is beautiful, but there is something I really love about your sketches that I just can't quite put my finger on. I just know I really like the sketch versions of the images. Link to comment
Kassandra Dawn Posted January 15, 2014 Share #9 Posted January 15, 2014 wow this is amazing Link to comment
C'kayah Polaali Posted January 15, 2014 Share #10 Posted January 15, 2014 Those are absolutely fantastic! Link to comment
Dakki Posted January 15, 2014 Share #11 Posted January 15, 2014 Ha, wow! Your Miqo'te style is so unique and sleek (I did not mean for that to rhyme). Especially with Orum, you've really brought him in to his own element. Where as most Miqo'te tend to be "house cat" looking, he resembles more of a lynx. To me, anyway. That speaks volumes for him if he is a wildman-type character and all credit to you! I love your work! Out of interest, do you draw races other than Miqo'te and Hyur? I'd like to see them, if so. Again, kudos-kupo! :moogle: Link to comment
BroodingFicus Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share #12 Posted January 16, 2014 Now that you mention it...I've never actually drawn any of the other races.... *scribbles frantically* And so the first Lalafell was born. Link to comment
Tla Posted January 16, 2014 Share #13 Posted January 16, 2014 That is the most cute and badass lala at the same time I've ever seen x_x Link to comment
Nykkus Trachspyr Posted January 16, 2014 Share #14 Posted January 16, 2014 I love the sharp angles and use of color, especially with the eyes. If you're interested in trying out a Roe drawing, I'd be happy to talk commission pricing. Link to comment
BroodingFicus Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share #15 Posted January 17, 2014 T'lamila, he'll kick you in you shins and steal your lunch money while singing a merry tune. I've never tried a Roe. The other races have kinda breezed over my head since I only rp a Hyur and a Miqo'te but I'm working my way down the line with some sketchy stuff just to see how it goes. Link to comment
Dyani Posted January 17, 2014 Share #16 Posted January 17, 2014 Ooo! I really like that one! The lighting is awesome Link to comment
S'maia Rahz Posted January 17, 2014 Share #17 Posted January 17, 2014 Ficus arts are so pretty. There are some pretty awesomely talented people here! Link to comment
Tla Posted January 17, 2014 Share #18 Posted January 17, 2014 T'lamila, he'll kick you in you shins and steal your lunch money while singing a merry tune. So a bit like Moogle King This last instead says, from his face, that he's annoyed of being forced to pose for the painting Will you ever open commissions? Link to comment
Kassandra Dawn Posted January 17, 2014 Share #19 Posted January 17, 2014 Now that you mention it...I've never actually drawn any of the other races.... *scribbles frantically* And so the first Lalafell was born. He's so cute i just want to cuddle him! Link to comment
Dakki Posted January 17, 2014 Share #20 Posted January 17, 2014 Well well, Ficus. Colour me impressed! (Not literally colour me in. BACK AWAY WITH THAT MARKER PEN!) Whilst Nykkus has already asked, would you be interested in drawing a male Roegadyn, also? As I've said, your style is very unique and I'd be intrigued to see the results. Awesome Lalafell, by the way! :moogle: Link to comment
BroodingFicus Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share #21 Posted January 19, 2014 ....*slowly lowers green Sharpie* But I was gonna color in the lines all pretty like. I don't do commissions very often just out due to lack of time. I may at some point actually give it a go in smaller doses once this years new work schedule settles some. Gonna try a Roe anyhow but for the moment, its all just in good fun and when I have time. I tend to go a span with no time and then spend hours coloring something I never finished. (Yes I forgot that feather. ) [align=center][/align] And thanks for all the love guys. He would be pleased looking too if he had any other modes aside from snarl and disdain around strangers.

BroodingFicus Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share #22 Posted January 25, 2014 I've been on an Orum kick the past few days so I thought I'd sha-Orum put your shirt on please... Orum: *blink...slow smile* "Makin' the civil folk uneasy hm?" ...*hand over face* Orum ladies and gents. [align=center][/align] Link to comment
Illira Posted January 25, 2014 Share #23 Posted January 25, 2014 Just wanted to pop in and say I really like your stuff Ficus, especially your sketchier pieces. You've really got a nice art style and take on the ARR races, I actually much prefer your Miqo'te to the in game ones! Link to comment
BroodingFicus Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share #24 Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks Illira. I love the options in this game but I doubt I'll ever be wholly satisfied with any mmo character creation. That's what drawings and imagination are for I guess. Sketch of my Hyur Highlander, Rhys Oathkeeper. Big man, big voice, big ax, shit fisherman. [align=center][/align] And something a bit more silly. Orum and my friends character R'tali as, yes, centaurs. This is probably five seconds before R'tali zips past and trips over his own feet while trying to gloat. [align=center][/align] Link to comment
Almil Posted January 30, 2014 Share #25 Posted January 30, 2014 Very cool stuff ^^ *thumbs up* Link to comment
