Hello hello! I'm Jester! (Jesturr was taken ; o;) To all you who have visited my last comish thread, hello again! To those who haven't, hello for the first time! I promised myself to make another comish thread, and, even though I haven't played in a while, I thought I'd keep that promise before moving on from the game that got me started on drawing! So, without further adieu~

Sketches - 100CE per character
Basic sketch commission with basic shading and a stock backgrounds. These aren't subject to any real queue because I can sketch things pretty quickly xD
Examples 1

Full Portraits - 800CE base price
+400 per extra character, + *CE for intricate background
Fully colored character art. If no background is specified, I will pick a basic solid color/gradient. If you want a specific background, I may add an extra charge depending on how intricate it has to be.
Examples 1
Examples 2

The examples are dated a few months, I hope to update them soon

Random non-SK examples that I've been working on during the summer.

@Jester

I'm V___yd__e! Hihi~! (No seriously, look at the history before on your other art threads; I do not lie)

So, with 16k CE left over, I'll go for...hm...

1200 CE comissh. - 1200(.1) + (200 - 200[.1]) = 1260 CE total commish. As described below :

One guy.

One girl.

Both are humanz. Like the ones you've recently made.

For height reference, 5'5 for the guy and 4'4 for the girl.

Both have black hair and blue eyes; the guy's eye color is like this, while the girl's eye color is like this .

The girl is supposed to be a kid around 7 years of age. I'll leave that challenge up to you.

The guy is pale, sorta like the human characters you've done recently. The trick is : you can make his face look as feminine as you want without makeup.

The girl is slightly tan in skin tone.

Whatever pose you want. Piggyback ride, walking side by side, carried in arms, riding on shoulders, etc. Just nothing...sad. I dun like that.

Now for clothing.

They're both wearing robes like these, except they're black instead of white, and the girl has only the gold border, none of those motifs yet. And no hoods on either.

Also, instead of the symbol on the back, a blue CE symbol is there (written in some scribble language, because it looks cool XD)

No background.

As for hairstyle, the girl has somewhat wavy hair that runs down a little to the neck length, but she usually has that tied into a ponytail.

The guy has hair kinda like...this guy's hair, except with a long tail at the end.

With the 200 CE extra, I'll also ask for one sketch of the guy working on a robotic arm, and another for the girl reading a book with her hair let down, wearing only a super-oversized T-shirt

@Sir Tuddle

@Thinslayer
Sure sure! What would you like to commission?

@Raigaizam
Of course, haha. Could you repost the request? I can't seem to find the thread it used to be in

@Feline-Vinnydier
Okay okay! So, just to clarify, is the sketch of the two characters a single sketch, or do you want a single sketch for each character?
And is the robotic arm that the man is working on attached to him or is he working on it on a table or something?

Baaah

Even without looking at Jester's post, Vinnydime is all too easy to remember.
SO HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW IT'S NOT FRAUD?

Also, You should probably try harder to hide that stuff, F-G.

@Jester-Gtr

I'd like to commission a non-SK character.

The name of the character is Lady Madeline Grey. Inspired by the appearance of Sakuya Izayoi from Touhou, Lady Grey is the intelligent, devious, scheming, plotting protagonist of my RP series Condemned. While the provided pictures show her with white hair, I think she would be better-served appearing less than magical, so imagine her in those pictures having light brown hair (with no maid headband, of course) and blue eyes.

For her pose, imagine the first picture, make it a full-body shot (posed appropriately regal), and turn the head to her left (our right) a bit so we can see both eyes. She's looking at the camera and holding a brown leather tome (modeled after a Tome of Rage) in her right hand, similar position as in the reference pic. Her left arm is extended toward the camera, her palm open and tilted down as if casting a spell from her fingertips.

For clothing, she wears something like a subdued-ultramarine (i.e. ever-so-slightly grayed) variant of this. Just replace the pendant with an elaborate silver cross with a ruby in the center, make the belts brown and put a pouch on the lower belt, keep the gold hem runes, and level the hem to about a foot (or more) off the ground.

No background is needed.

EDIT: Sorry about all the edits. :P

Commishymish please.

Hello, I'd like to order a commission if that's okay.

I'd like to ask for a full portrait plus another character and a background making the total 1.2k ce + However much you charge for the background.

Description-
The first knight will be in a Kat Eye cowl, Divine Guardian armor, Divine wings, Crest of Love, Divine Flower, Divine Wolver Tail, Sprinkle Aura, Cyan Personal Color, Jolly eyes, and extra short.

The second knight is dressed in a Moonstone Chapeau, Polar Night Wolf Coat, Prismatic Glow eyes, Crest of Winter, Disciple Wings, Polar Wolf tail, Snowfall Aura, Indigo Personal Color, Shifty eyes, and tall.

The pose will be the two cuddling with the first knight resting their head on the second knights shoulder, sitting on the stairs on the left side of the fountain in Haven. The second knight will be leaning their head on the first knights head as close as possible while slightly looking towards the first. With the background facing the stairs leading to Garrison along with the fountain, it shouldn't be too detailed but it should be nice to look at.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing your art!

Anyone else getting a butt ton of 408 errors when trying to get on the forums? Hard for me to respond to things when I can't access the site x_x

@Felyne-Grenadier
I have sketches for the 2 sketch commissions and a sketch of the full one for you to look at once I confirm 270CE of the 1260CE price has been received!

@Raigaizam
Yup yup, I'll get done after Vinnydime's!

@Thinslayer, Kyanashi
Okays, I'll work on it after the subsequent commissions before yours!

Commisions! :3

I'd like a Full Portrait of my knight with a simple, Purple-ish background and I'd pay the 800ce (if the simple background is not a problem)
I don't care what pose he would be in, so I guess the pose on the picture would be alright (or you can do whatever you want)

Here is a description of my knight that I use to copy/paste everywhere (I've been looking for a lot of art commisions lately):

I you can't tell by the image (or the link is not working for some reason), here's what my knight jaard is wearing:
-a Royal Jelly Crown (with a Military Mustache, a Military Com Unit, a Toasty Plume)
-a Skolver Coat (wit a Love Puppy Monster Pocket, a Prismatic Cat Tail (although I'd prefere if it wasn't in the picture actually) and Divine Valkiery Wings)
- a Bararous Thorn Shield
- a Cold Iron Vanquisher
(and a Combuster)

Sketches for you to confirm! The one I'll be coloring is the piggyback one
Unless you really want to keep them, the faces often change when I'm coloring because I usually don't sketch them out at all <,...,<

Feline-Grenadier

Hm...

The male's hair tail, I prefer, would be starting at a downwards slope instead of arching, and maybe at a quarter's width of what you have.

here's the best example a at short notice, though it runs even longer and is even thinner.

Also, I think I'd actually like to have the male's collarbone showing.

As for the female, I'd like her to be sitting in more of a curled up position, with her Tshirt draped over her legs. That, and more bangs for her.

Otherwise, you might've killed me with the sheer cuteness >w<

Awww! The drawing for Vinny- Ahem, I mean Feline looks so adorable!

Btw, @Feline, why are you hiding?

Anyways, I was about to commision a drawing, when I found out I don't have any pictures for you to reference. Can anyone point me to sites where I can post some screenshots of my knight?

Alright, found a flickr thingy..... I'm so outdated, despite being young. xD

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126872233@N06/14882514446/

@Jester Here. When do I pay you? I mean, I still got maybe 2 thousand crowns for another batch of CE?

@Topogaming
Not until I start yours :P (the queue is a bit lengthy at the moment)
I'd like to give commissioners sketches of their final piece before ironing it out completely, so before then I'd prefer receiving at least enough to cover a sketch commission (like 100CE) of the final price, and I do expect to be fully paid before I show the finished image.

@Vinnydime
Yup yup! Can you maybe throw up a sketch/ref photo of the pose for the girl? I'm afraid I don't completely see it.
I'll get working on the resketches soon and get back to you.
Thanks thanks!

Not that I can really do any art. . . and even were I to do so, there's no garuntee that you'd get it for a month or so, considering how badly I do with paint, So it'd be an all pencil picture.

Sorry everyone for the lack of updates!
I've been able to go home for the last week of Summer and my productivity has dropped like a rock, but I'll get back to work this weekend!

Vinnydime, I'm still working on your resketches, sorry for the delay

Thinslayer, I have a sketch ready for you if you can pay that much of the comish fee (100CE)

Raigaizam, I'm working on yours from scratch, if you don't mind, so I don't have a sketch for you unfortunately :(

Thanks everyone, I'll try and stay in the loop with the new semester looming!

@Vertigo

You'll have to clarify what you want. If you want him to draw a gremlin, then are you willing to pay 100 CE for the sketch price, or the full 800 CE portait price? Do you want any poses, weapons, and so forth?

You'll have to make it very clear on what you want. If you feel like Jester might mess up on something, describe poses, expressions, and the art styles you want from him. If you can't describe it yourself, look up an image of a pose you want on Google and type it as so :

[a href="placelinkhere"]At least a dot here.[/a]

Replace the [] brackets with :

<
and
> syntax

Vertigo-Lyca

@Feline

Well, I at least want to know he'd do it first before I waste time on this slow phone typing out whole explanations. I'm most likely getting the full 800 anyway.

Sun, 08/24/2014 - 21:10

#32

Vertigo-Lyca

Gah, well, this will just be me hoping.

So, I'd like the 800 ce portrait with a dark blue or purple gradient background that slightly gets brighter towards the lower part.

For pose, I'd like it to be her sitting down with her legs layed out, and leaning slightly forward on her arms with her hands in the space between her legs, and expression, either a cute toothy smile, or a shy face with blush. Either works, whichever's easier. ^^

She's a White-furred Gremlin with sky blue eyes named Nylocke, who's slightly tinier and thinner than most of the assassin Gremlins you'd see in say - the Crimson DLC. She wears a Baggy Darkfang assassin set (I say baggy since she's smaller than a Darkfang assassin usually is. Just imagine she's wearing a size too big.) but all the symbols have been removed, aside from the addition of a Love Puppy heart symbol that you'd see on the Puppy's forehead, on her shoulder. Her favorite color is purple so she also has her dark grey suit's additions (Scarf, leg wraps) purple.

I think I explained it to the best of my ability... If you have any questions, let me know please, and I'd like to see the rough sketch at least before I pay for the full product. I'd just like to make sure I like it before I buy it. :x

@Felyne Grenadier
I'm resketching things from scratch because I've lost the old transparent sketch file, but I'm having much trouble reproducing their hair @_= could you post some more screenies for reference of their hair? (mostly the male's?) thanks :'D

Sorry for the hiatus, I should be more productive now that everything's (mostly) settled!

I'm still hanging on to some thumbnails if you are ready to confirm them! If you've already sent me something, please tell me on this thread, I don't check SK enough to randomly catch mails and stuff

@Thinslayer
Lady Madeline Grey is finished and colored if you want to send the rest of payment! (Again, tell me when you send it, I don't check SK otherwise ;_;)

@Felyne-Grenadier
That looks really cool :O How do you draw on an iPad? It sounds difficult.

Anyway, thank you for the reference :'D It was really helpful, though I wasn't sure what you meant by "mane-like."

I gave it another shot if you want to throw any more suggestions before I color the one on the left. I should have clarified that the way I did hair with the white stripes wasn't necessarily suggesting that they had stripey hair, it was just a footnote for myself in the future to track the direction of the hair :'D Hehe.

@Jester-Gtr

There's a slight upward stroke on her lip that looks out of place, as does the makeup around her eyes (or whatever those black extensions are). I'd say she looks good otherwise, but those issues kinda throw off her general look.

Tue, 09/02/2014 - 13:30

#44

Liminori

Other criticizm.

This is just for you to learn, Jester. I mean nothing by it, in any rude form whatsoever.
The extended hand looks like someone broke the spot between the joints of the hand, specifically the part between the middle finger and pointer finger.
Use your hands as a reference. Unless you lack hands to look at.
@Thinslayer: The upward stroke where the lip is could be a scar to add characterization, If that helps.

Tue, 09/02/2014 - 15:44

#45

Feline-Grenadier

Hm...

The middle sketch makes her look like her neck is a little elongated, that, and the side view makes her look a little hieroglyphic (flat). Maybe turn her towards the camera a bit?

And when you're coloring, could you give the male a slight blue tint to the shadow, and a slight rosewood tint to the female's?

Sorry if this is getting a little dragged out >.<

Something about her face still seems a bit off. I liked her face in the sketch better for some reason.
For comparison...
Sketch
Color

EDIT: I have an idea. Try centering her irises in her eyes. Maybe she just looks sleepy in the color version, and centering her eyes might do the trick. Also, give her eyes the almond shape; it's rather central to her character.
