The Art Request Thread

I have a few characters that I'd love to have some artwork done on. I've included a couple here for anyone to try their hand at drawing if they have the time or inclination.

First is Sunderbolt, he is not your typical hothead blaster. He feels a deep sense of responsibility and he believes that moxie, backed up by super powers, will see him through most situations. He is no stranger to the limelight and has a very gregarious personality.

I'm really very proud of this costume. Though not his original I feel like I really nailed the superhero look here.


Next is Redwood Giant. He was my first level 50 and I had a blast playing him. He is quiet almost to the point of reticence. Though not talkative Redwood Giant is not anti-social. He smiles and laughs easily, has a very paternal and protective nature and exudes a sense of calm strength.

I wanted to do a character that didn't feel the need for a superhero costume and since his original job was that of a logger I decided to stick with the jeans and work boots look. I think it works very well.

Wow, this is exactly the thread I have been looking for for a long time! I have tried repeatedyl to draw my main for an avatar but every time it comes out as some failure piece that I scrap and throw away.

Is there any rules as to how to propose you character? Can I just link him up and one of you talented people will draw it?

Either way, please let me know, I'm VERY interested. Thanks!

Honestly, I don't know how oftn this thread is used by the artists these days... Most of the "gift arts" I've seen lately have been through more participatory use of the board and the threads but not being an artist I have no idea if they're still keeping an eye out here...

That being the case I believe standard "protocal" is gone over in the first post of this thread... Basically post up some pics of your character which are nice and clear so they can see what they look like. Ask nicely. Describe what your looking for. Say please. Bake cookies. You know, normal politeness and bribery


OOPS, my bad. I thought this was different thread. The post going over protocal is in the How to Request Art thread which can be found here: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=118410

OK. This is a request for someone else who is quite the *ahem* volunteer, herself.

Over on Twitter, Samuraiko voiced the idea of a holiday-themed pic starring Posi and Sora, protagonists of her CoH fanfic novel "The Course of Superhero Romance". She did mention wanting it "risque'" but didn't go into details.

Now you all know Michelle's skill in writing, and in machinanima/video editing.

Any artists want to talk to Michelle, find out how 'involved' this piece would be? She IS broke and unemployed, so this would be either a gift or a barter, if indeed any of you could use her skills with pen or Premiere. You would have to iron out those details with her, of course.

I'm just posting the request. Thank you.

I read that people are wondering if this thread is read by artists who are still willing to draw voluntary.

Well... *I* do! So there's at least 1

So please, keep requesting!

I'm willing to have my characters be subject to more of our local artists' grubby hands and pens. I don't have a lot of ref shots at the moment, but if there's anything that catches your interest within the images I linked to, you can PM me if you need any more information.

A friend of mine did this for me..It's my lvl 50 Fire Fire Fairy of Doom sitting on Mjolnir. He'd love to do more for a fee. Click his linky and email him what you'd like done with several screenies.

Interesting style. He's got a good flair for the more fantasy-oriented themes.

Okay, that seven-of-diamonds chest emblem is simply brilliant.

Many thanks in advance if anyone feels up to it ^^.

Go back and look over dates of posts for last page or two, this threads not really very active. Every now and again it get's a post and a couple responses and then dies for another 2 weeks or more.

Appearantly that is how this threat works... It's always been that way, since I've discovered it.

But I'd be happy to draw your Villain, Ercassiel!
It does mean you'll be on my "request list", as I have several other requests still not finished.

Just howl (PM ) and I'll put you on it, if you're interested in my style.

I'll be looking through this thread as well. If any good characters catch my eye, I'll give it a shot.

I was wondering if someone would like to take a crack at the Primal Predator, my Arachnos Widow?

Im in need of a new avatar and/or sig if anyone feels up for it, although any general art would be awesome.

Here's my contributution to the thread! It's DoctorMystery's Independence!

Rather odd art request but actually see my signature.

I was wondering if someone could knock up a 'badge icon' for my forum earned badge, unfortunately I can't seem to make it look very good when I do it myself.

As you can see from the signature, the badge's name is Wing Clipper and the flavoured text reads 'Real Showstopper'. Just wondering if you artsie types could knock up something to go with the name.

Pretty please?
