Make an Offer... Tempt me

Just want to say first: This is just an Idea I had and thought to try so its kind of a work in progress still

Ok this is not a normal art commission thread. There will not be any slots, it will not be on a first come first serve basis, in fact by posting here you are not guaranteed to receive a pic at all. Sounds harsh huh? Well let me explain.

Lately I've been doing open commissions for private farms. Meaning I'll do art for a farm but I get to choose which animal I make a picture for and what I get in return. This will be a slight twist on that. I'll let you choose which animal you want me to do and what you are willing to give me for it. But I reserve the right to accept or decline the offer.

Why I accept or decline an offer may depend on a number of things. None of them are personal.

Payment Methods:
I will accept animals or tokens, not play cash. For animals there isn't a set payment but my usual fee has been generally based off this line: 1 pic for 1 Thr/End/AE animal. AE's that haven't been over bred and are whole may be worth two pictures. Animals I'm Interested in: Horses, Otters, Myths, Ferrets, Pheasants, Peafowl, Narwhals.
Tokens: 120 at least (Why? Because that is how much it takes to make something ExR)

How this will work: Fill out and post the form with your request and offer. I will then pm those who's offers I accept. Please only 2 open offers/requests per person at one time.

Code:

[b]Animal Link:[/b]
[b]Color Ref.:[/b] (optional)
[b]Text:[/b] (optional)
[b]Offer:[/b]

**Extra Notes**
-I don't like doing feathers or scales.
-I don't like doing myths (exceptions are simple myths like a unicorn)
-Backgrounds are at my discretion unless you want none at all.
-Payment is due when the picture is finished.
-Pictures for use on SBF, VP and VHR only.
-Please rehost your pictures on your own photo-hosting site. I go through and clean mine regularly so if you don't your picture will disappear.
-Animals I don't have are generally more appealing then the ones I do.

Now For Examples XD

Color Ref.: http://www.carouselfriesians.com/images/Slides/S001.jpg-would like him/her to have a curly mane like that and tail.

Would you do me just a lineart on it's own do you think? I need to practise my colouring and i would love a lineart from you?
I am very flexible with pose and breed and gender so it's pretty much open! I did actually really love the arab lineart you coloured and did for me. Do you think you could do a lineart like that but for a draft style horse? Pose and gender is up to you!

If you can do me just the draft style lineart then i would pay you around 25 mill? I just love your art! Oh and if you could do it soon then i could pay more! Very Happy

Let me know, greenie

Greenpen: Maybe. I was thinking of maybe doing a line art thread. Just having a bunch of stock linearts since I don't always color mine and let people use them. I don't know how much to charge or something just for use of a line art. 25mil is awfully generous of you but it seems like a lot just for lines.

Everyone else: Question? If you guys aren't using the pics for animals in the Orbis games were do you plan on using the pics?

Well i just wanted to get a lineart from you to practise my colouring on... Laughing

And i can pay you 10-15mill? Is that any better? I just think your art is amazing! Very Happy

Please get back to me anyway.

Love the linearts on another thread idea! If you want to do mine here and now then that's be brill but if you want to wait for the other thread then i don't really mind...

Thanks,
greenie

The friesian one, I just want a pic of a friesian on my comp lol. I love them but I might use it for one of my friesians on the game.

The other one is for a horse on this game.

I actually find it easier to have you make a request for some animal I have and you lack. Let me know. (:

Also, any way to make her like in a kind of submissive pose, and wild at the same time? Something to match the flawed quote on there, if possible and not too bothersome? ^_^
