Knaifuu Please show some examples of designs you've done and I'll decide if I'm interested!
April 22nd 2023 Update: Changed the title to experimental because I want to practice stuff.... shading in particular.... so do keep that in mind.
These ARE NOT FCFS. I'll only reply if I accept! If I don't respond after awhile it's probably because I've declined, I'm sorry;;; Check out my carrd for art examples!
FOR ART TRADES:
I prefer to do 1-to-1 trades (sketch headshot for sketch headshot, full colored chibi for full colored chibi, ect.) but feel free to offer things I don't offer as well (pixels, writing, uuuh whatever else-) and we can discuss something fair for it.
As for characters I want drawn... I just got some new outfits designed for one of my mains, Chase, so he's kind of priority right now! Particularly I'm looking for art of him in the outfits labeled 1, 3, 4, and 5 by Keronfrog. Other than that though anyone in this tag is next in priority!
PLEASE make sure to have this information in your comment or DM or I will be more likely to decline: What kind of trade do you want to do? (please be specific. Is it sketched or lined? shaded or flat colored? Bust/chibi/halfbody/fullbody/ect?). Who do you want me to draw? (You can give options!) Who do you plan to draw for me? (if you haven't decided it's fine to just list who you're interested in drawing). Please show your examples (this isn't necessary if we've traded before and I'm familiar with your art).
Some Characters Up For Art Trade:
The art trades are the main point of this thread, however I also have characters that I'm willing to trade for art as well. Anyone here are able to be traded! I'm not looking for anything complicated for most of them (as in no you don't have to offer full-bodies with backgrounds lol) but I may be picky regarding art style. If you're interested feel free to offer!
Thank you for considering! Do note that if I get any commission requests they will take precedent over trades, but I will try to get everything done in a timely manner! If you would rather talk somewhere other than TH you’re welcome to ask for my discord tag.
Feel free to check out my bulletin here for a to-do list and status on art I owe!
Knaifuu Oop sorry for the misunderstanding haha, I'm not very interested though sorry! I'm only really interested in what I mentioned wanting in the custom and I'm not a huge fan of object head type characters, but thank you for the offer anyways!
hiiiii hazeeeee i'd like to do a custom trade with you if thats ok.... 👉👈 (either the halloween or the idol one or new outfits, idc ^^ )
akikurosai HELLOOOOOOOOO!! Of course I'd love to do a custom trade with you omg I always have fun with them...
I juuuust barely got a Halloween-esque character that's pending for an art trade now so the Idol one is kind of priority at the moment if that's good with you?
yeee sounds good ^^ do you have any visual references i can go off from, a specific theme (other than what youve listed) or should i just go ham
as for me, i have this tag where i have OCs that are either ones a) ive drawn but havent designed completely b) have visual references (also includes some chars i havent moved to TH yet............). some chars dont have design notes, so if youre interested in drawing them, lmk and ill add them ^^ but if none of them strike you fancy, i always need new characters in this story or alt outfits for anyone in this tag ~
akikurosai sorry for the late response I went and collected some images to use as potential inspirations! A lot of them are hoooorrible quality but I just kind of threw in a bunch of things together into stash to potentially go off of. Also since I mentioned having blue/pink part of it I was thinking the shades would be similar to these? But feel free to mess with it of course. Honestly I say just go ham though if he's a guy that could fit into a modern idol story it's probably good EJAOGJAOGI. Most of the outfits in that stash are for the more casual civilian look. If you're more interested in doing a more idol-y outfit the theme for their group is basically an RPG party. Naoki is supposed to possibly be a rouge or dark mage of some kind. I haven't decided with Mahiro rip EJAOIGJA. This guy is supposed to take on a more "healer" role? But I also imagine him with a princely aesthetic so . Honestly whatever you want to do will be fine JEOAGJIA.
EJOAGJOAIJGIO OOOOH SO MANY GOOD CHARACTERS OH NOOOOO it's a hard choice... I think I'd be interested in designing one of these three? One, Two, three if you have a preference of which one jeoiajgaoga.
ooo okay! ill try the casual look first, and if you want, i can try the idol-y outfit after as a 2nd trade (im WEAK for prince aesthetics)????
i dont really have a preference haha XD so go for who youd like! (altho yichen and azalea play big roles in their respective arcs, while ciera is more of a supporting char) more details about each of them vv
yuen yichen: a cute white rabbit who seems very unreliable given how silly he is, but is surprisingly very perceptive and kinda scary. you can pretty much go ham with either direction you choose for his clothes^^ as long as he gives off a "uwu" vibe idrc LMAO XD im not sure if it helps, but he belongs in this story (fantasy based but i dont think theres a specific aesthetic happening here LOL) and works with this lady. he himself is the head of the yuen family (somehow), so hes fancy to some degree. possible themes: flower (petunia/marigold/snapdragon), celestial
ciera: shes in this story and basically shes a uhhhhhhh information broker? something along those lines. (im not sure if you know HI3, but shes similar to felis in vibes). emits strong "owo" energy. and shes a bear kemonomimi! i dont have any specific direction for her outfit (or her eye color), so you can honestly go wild. if you want some ideas tho, i think the drawing has her something in fancy formal ( honestly ciel vibes tbh x | x) but steampunk (x | x | x ) could definitely work too ^^
azalea: like yichen, shes also in ie, but shes one of the princesses of hell--essentially a demon who represents greed! shes very self-entitled and will do anything to get what she wants. her hair is red, but it turns into orange then to yellow (...or something. heres just a bunch of diff palettes i just tried, go wild) toward the tips. eyes can be the same red, or whatever fits...pupils are slits. the gaia image doesnt have it, but shes supposed to have horns and a tail, both of which shift to the same 3rd color as her hair toward the tip (like lucero). she also has wings, with the outside being black and the inside a different color (havent decided yet, but something that isnt her hair colors or purple). her aesthetics are gothic (x | x | x ) or retro-y (x | x), color palette primarily red/black. basically fancy, a bit bratty, and the "ohohohohohooho!!!!" vibes.
akikurosai JEOIAGJAOI HONESTLY SAME prince aesthetics so good... neither Mahiro or Naoki are very princely so this guy gets to be instead Works for me though!! I honestly need to get working on idol outfits in general none of my idol kids have any yet smh I keep neglecting them JOEIAJAIJG
HOOOOOO MAN.... I'm leaning so heavy towards Yuen and Azalea rn they both seem like soooo much fun to design. I'll probably decide when I get to actually doing the trade if I feel like doing uwu or ohohohoho energy at that moment . I'll probably work on the other trade I have to do first buuuuut hopefully won't take forever with this JAIOJOGAOGI
bruh i feel, i have so many OCs that i shouldve properly designed by now (given. that most of them. are pretty important. in their respective stories.) but ive been putting it off lmaooo
haha all good, take your time! i probs wont get to my part for a few days anyway bc college is now a thing again >:((((
akikurosai the biggest mood tbh SNXNWHZH. I still have a few designs I need to get to for Magnus War… mostly just part 2 designs and some mild redesigns though. One day, one day….
ANSNABS RIGHT… GOOD LUCK WITH COLLEGE THO and take your time too Omg
Chengling Thank you so much for the offer! I think I'm going to decline this time around but thank you so much for taking your time to comment and I wish you luck with any future art trades!
