IGN: Portrayt
Hello. As a very small amount of you know, I have limited drawing skills. As a slightly bigger section of you know, I have a lack of CE. Turns out these two things can benefit both you and I.
I'm selling my skills for CE~
In short, I'll make an art or something for you, and you pay me with CE.
Previous work:
http://s1264.photobucket.com/albums/jj495/portrayt/Commissions/
The Good (& Relevant) Stuff
Here's what I can draw:
Also, understand that these are just sketches and such of examples. They are not finished products.
I'll draw a single piece of equipment from Spiral Knights (although I might be willing to draw things from other media).
I'll draw your Knight. They could be posing, etc. I will not draw Mature Art.
I can draw Monsters and such pretty well...
This is sort of an odd topic, but, these are good for sigs, , if you just feel like your name needs more awesome, etc. [The names in this picture are examples of what I could do.]
Comics... These could be a short story, etc. Although exceptions may be made, I generally won't draw more than one page of panels.
I can draw other things too, but I'm best at Machine-like things, Monsters, and Special Effects (Runes, Spells, Explosions, etc).
-Mediums (the way I make your art)-
Traditional Pencil Sketch: a sketch... in pencil... questions? I can also highlight the final draft in Black pen...
Pen & Paper: Like a sketch, but with no eraser. Interestingly enough, these usually turn out better than my pencil sketches.
Microsoft Word: Picture is drawn using all sorts of shapes and textures.
Tablet + Drawing Program: At the moment, I haven't had much practice with this. If you're unsure, do with a colored Pencil Sketch.
-Prices-
As for prices, you offer. I'll usually accept what you offer the first time, however, please make the following considerations:
• I am not your servant. Don't pay me 10 CE for a full blown colored picture of your Knight. Don't be cheap.
• If your commission is done really fast ( and you like it), consider paying me more for my expedient work. Likewise, if a simple sketch takes over two weeks to finish and it's not that complicated, I'll ask for less.
• I have a life. Please be patient with me, I'm only human.
So yeah...
To make this simple for you, I made an application (below).

Yay.
Wow, your drawing seems good. I can rarely play Spiral Knights, but I can still get CE to you.
1. Knight: He has a Boosted Plate Mail, a Stranger Hat, a Boosted Plate Shield, and a Sealed Sword. Draw him in any pose you'd like. Note that he's a cheerful guy.
2. Traditional Pencil Sketch.
3. Less than a lifetime (doesn't matter).
4. 100 CE
5. No.

Finally!
Thank you!
I've been bored all day!
I get to work as soon as I'm done writing this!
Hopefully, I can have him finished within the hour.
As for 100 CE, that's fine. Thanks!
Also, you should note that my IGN is Portrayt.
If you do send it to Corrionos, though, that's fine, he's one of my alts.

Update!
I just drew the rough draft :P
Using Charge attack on mini-jelly.
Woot.
Rough draft thing:
http://i1264.photobucket.com/albums/jj495/portrayt/Internets/494e29f1.jpg
*EDIT: 2nd draft!*
Just got done with this...
Coming together!
http://i1264.photobucket.com/albums/jj495/portrayt/Internets/98775b5b.jpg
Fun to draw :P
**EDIT: Done with boosted Mail!**
yay!
Taking a quick break to erase the pencil sudges on my hand (I'm left handed, you see).
Now for the Stranger hat and shield (shield shouldn't be too hard)...
http://i1264.photobucket.com/albums/jj495/portrayt/Internets/119a1a0d.jpg
***EDIT: Done with All Armor (& shield)***
I think you('re knight) is looking pretty good..
Now for the Sealed Sword, then Finish the Jelly & Charge effect!
After that, just a little cleaning up and it'll be done!

Bump.
I will now wait for more commissions!

#12
Thank you!
Thank you so much! I'll get the CE to you when I can... which may take a while... but no worries, I'm not scamming ya.
Wed, 04/25/2012 - 03:19
#13
Yeah!
No problem!
What do you think of it?
Wed, 04/25/2012 - 16:43
#14
I'll Light Him Up Here Too :P
Wow, this seems real nice! So...
1. Knighty! She wears a Fencing Jacket, a Blazebreak helm with a ribbon (the same dark grey color as the jacket; a Military Ribbon perhaps... I haven't checked it!), an Ascended Calibur, and a Heavy Pulsar. Feel free to leave out the Pulsar, I love the sword much more then that ol thing.
2. Pencil as well. (Yeah, color doesn't matter here!)
3. Take your time buddy :)
4. 300 CE+Some nice materials I got.
5. I want to be seen hugging my Guild Master. He wears a 5* Quicksilver getup usually, but I want him in his Almirian Armor!
Changed to Almirian armor, sorry there :P

#16
Fantastic! [also, Bump]
@Mygmar
Yes!
Another Commission!
I have a couple questions regarding some specifics:
• You want two knights in this picture, you hugging your guildmaster, correct? What would your guildmaster's reaction be as you hugged him? What do you do when you hug (kick a leg up, have a "^.^" face, etc)?
• What ways are you and your GM going to be facing? Your GM facing the viewer and you sideways?
• Do you want your knight to look as close to the SK character, or to have defining womanly characteristics..?
That's pretty much it. I'm going to start work pretty soon, but it'll mostly be planning/practice.
Please note, if you don't respond within 24 hours, I'll begin work using assumptions.
@Mczeno:
Challenge Accepted.
Wed, 04/25/2012 - 17:27
#17
Surprise me!
Change to original post...sorry there!
I want to have happy eyes and Heavy looking rather surprised... Also... a little inside joke, but I want him to be shown with a small plume of fire on his head! Draw the positions however you want!
Oh, and as close to the SK character as possible!
Here's a few screenies!

I shall begin at once!

Progress!
Most recent picture...

It's beginning to take shape...
*EDIT: More progress*
yay!

**EDIT: Update**
I regret to inform you that I, as a human, must rest and gather my strength to perservere.
Have no fear, the Commission will be done within the day!
It is currently 23:20, just so you know.
Apologies, Portrayt.

IGN: Squishat

Thu, 04/26/2012 - 03:31
#22
Ok, then!
I shall begin work soon!
I have Mygmar's commission I'd like to finish first, but your Username should be finished in about 10 hours.
Thu, 04/26/2012 - 12:29
#23
Impressive...
You can draw pretty well.
Thu, 04/26/2012 - 13:52
#24
Mygmar!
@Acerx - Thank you for the compliment. You sure you don't want a commission yourself?
@Mygmar - Your commission is pretty much done, but I have one question: For your Ascended Calibur, I can A) Draw it sheathed on your knight's back, B) Draw it lying on the ground where you dropped it before hugging Heavy, or C) Leave it out altogether.
Regardless, I'll post the Picture within 15 minutes of your incoming response.
@Squishat - I have begun work on your Username. Thanks for taking a step into the unknown, you won't be disappointed.
@Anyone else - Feel free to commission me, I need more work :D
Thu, 04/26/2012 - 16:11

Hm...I'd maybe like it
Hm...I'd maybe like it sheathed! Or just slung over my back. Thanks!

Alright.
Ok, I'll do it.
I'm not too sure how well I can do on the Snarbolax, but hey, you gotta start somewhere!
300 CE Sounds good! We'll see how good I can make it!
Depending on how busy I am, I can probably have this done in a day.
Just finishing up the last commission on here, so I'll start soon.
Check back here when you can, I'll post updates.

Thu, 04/26/2012 - 19:37
#31
Vexxum!
I have a question.
Do you want your knight holding his Voltedge in two hands or in one hand?
Also, do you want to have a shield, and if so, where?
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 00:50
#32
@corionos
oh nice, medivally and firey ish kinda feel to it ;D I'll just mail you the ce!
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 04:49
#33
Hooray!
I'll have the CE to you later when I do several runs! I can't even check the picture now being at school. Photobucket is unavailable there with that dumb lightspeed filter.
Thanks! I'll show this to Heavy soon!
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 05:06
#34
You're great ;)
You have LOADS of talent. If I had any CE, I'd just give it to you for free! Sadly, I'm broke. But you do deserve it. Keep up the good work!
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 13:22
#35
Vexxum!
Responses ~
@Squishat - I don't know how long it'll be before I can scan & edit that picture to be used as a signature and be semitransparent. I'm glad you like it! Let me know if you want any changes or a different one.
@Mygmar - If you want, I can probably post it to a website that isn't blocked... As for the CE, that's fine, take your time.
@Neigh-Knocker - Thank you for the compliments! You're too kind. *bows*. If the issue is being able to afford a commission, we can negotiate, I wouldn't mind doing work for a less rich knight. I'm going to add a list of alternatives to CE pretty soon.
@Vexxum - If you could read the previous post in which I posted a couple questions, that'd be great. As for an update, your commission is about 1/3 done at this point, and I think it's going to turn out awesome!

No, it's fine now. I'm at mah home computer. It's not blocked for me, and I have a Photobucket account under Mygmar as well!

VEXXUM!!! (Your input needed!)
Vexxum, you get a sneak preview, because I have a question (yet again).
With regards to this:
http://i1264.photobucket.com/albums/jj495/portrayt/Commissions/Commissio...
Does the Plasmatech Bombhead mask look alright?
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 19:04
#41
Vexxum.
So, I finished the sketch.
I haven't done any shading.
So... More questions -
Could I outline the entire sketch in black ink?
If I can, can I then shade it?
Of course, all this will be done at no extra cost - it's just something I'd like to do.
I'm waiting on you, otherwise I'm done.
Fri, 04/27/2012 - 19:07
#42
Accepting new commissions!
So, yeah. Currently not doing anything (waiting on Vexxum)... So...
COMMISSION AWAY!

Souls...the life blood of heaven

Sat, 04/28/2012 - 10:45
#47
Thanks!
Also, if you want to offer something other than CE for payment, that's fine!
I have nothing to do today, so please, request something!
Sat, 04/28/2012 - 11:35
#48
Wonderful! Just As I Pictured It!
Wow, I just got back! I 'just' looked at it (since yesterday, my computer was wonkitus and decided to be mean to me), and I LOVE it!
I'll be sending you CE after I run for money a few times! Thanks! I can't wait to show Heavy!
I should commission some more arts from you in the future!
I'm putting it on my favorites bar ;)
Sat, 04/28/2012 - 11:46
#49
Thanks!
Also, as soon as I get my Scanner working, you'll have a better copy. Instead of favoriting it, you may want to save it to your desktop. It belongs to you.
As for more commissions, please! Give me another one to do! I don't care if you can't pay me for 3 weeks!
PLEASE, I'M BEGGING YOU!!!
...yeah...
