General Requests Thread

Posted 8 years, 5 months ago (Edited 7 years, 10 months ago) by Pokeshadow

Haven't seen any official threads on this site, and I feel like one of this nature is needed. I've seen a tone of "I wanna make some free art for people" threads but they're all directed at the one artist, and the poor guys/girls/other configurations or being  sometimes get overloaded and has to leave some behind. Solution? 

Official art request thread.

 

How this works: This works similar to 4chan's drawthreads if anyone is familiar with the site and boards that run these, minus the creation of a booru to house completed requests

  • Requesters will leave a request in the comments, it can be of a character specifically or just a link to their character list for the drawfriend to decide. If you're feeling lucky, you can suggest a pose or situation, but it all comes down to the drawfriend what they want to do or not do. If you do what a specific picture, be sure to include details, otherwise you might not get what you bargined for.
  • Drawfriends who see a request and are interested in the idea or character fill out said request. Do not feel obligated to do anything at all, it is up to you what you want to do or what you want to ignore.
  • For common curtesy, please don't spam your request if it isn't fulfilled. Drawfriends work very hard on art for people, it isn't very nice to pressure them. Who knows, maybe in a week from your original request a new drawfriend might enter the thread for the first time, see it, and decide to do it for you. Let them be free.
  • Just because someone's already fulfilled a request doesn't mean a different drawfriend can't also like the request enough to do a picture as well. It's all down to the drawfriend what they do and don't do, they have no obligations at all.
  • For the love of god do not make a request then add "But I don't want [Insert username here] to do this!"  These people are taking time out of their lives to make art for you, don't insult them by telling them to go away and that their art's bad.
  • If your request is NSFW, you might want to message the final image privately. People of all ages use this site, some not in a position to handle naked parts or worse, so be considerate. That being said, if you're making a NSFW request, please don't write out in the comments  "I want [Character] to be f***ing this b*tch here, showing off his fat c***"  no one wants to see that shit. Don't be nasty. 
  • Don't request commission quality super art. This is essentially a freebie thread, don't expect someone to sit down for days on end perfectly shading each pixel to life like qualities for absolutely nothing. If you want that kinda art of your characters, actually commission and pay someone for their hard work and effort. If a drawfriend does decide to randomly make someone's request high quality, great for you, you lucked out, but don't expect that to be a certainty. It was the drawer's decision to make it as they did, but their next image they make could also be a simple sketch. Don't pressure the drawers.
  • Yes you can make multiple requests over time, but I stress the over time part. It's not fair for you to be constantly asking for art on a daily basis if you've already gotten art out of this. Maybe give it a week or two, enough time to let the drawers do other requests and maybe have a break.
  • Respect the Drawfriends.
  • Drawfriends, if you actually run commisions, don't spam about it. Go ahead and mention it if someone comments on your art by all means, but don't go out of your way to plug yourself. The whole rest of this board is for that.

If other rules are needed I will add them.

 

Other than that, have fun! Be free my children

What a fun thread! ( Pepperly pinging myself lol)

I'm looking for icons maybe? Anything that could look nice in a 100x100 box.
Doodles are also nice. When I have a little free time on my hands I'll see what I can do here, too. :3
Literally anyone is good, but here's a nice place to start:
Easymode: Needs Icon Has Reference
Hardmode: Needs Icon Needs Reference?
And if you just want to doodle: Has Reference

well it was 4 am and for some reason my brain decided that was it, that was the best time to contribute to this topic. i was going to draw one character for everyone who posted in here but then i got lazy because it was 4 am and only wound up only drawing four characters, whoops! i just went with the designs i thought would be the most fun to draw out of the ones i narrowed it down to, and i tried to pick characters that didn't really have much art. so here's ingemar (i love that name btw), jareth, rae, and lillian! apologies if the designs are kinda off or tweaked too much!

@Nessy Pokeshadow @ZippityZe Ceannaliel

i like to upload all of my art to dA, tumblr, and twitter so if you're not cool with your oc being up there let me know! also, if you want a transparent version or a solid colored background or someth just toss me a pm and i'll get that for you; i was gonna do that but it's 10 am and i was too lazy to do anything but gyazo the individual pics. effort.

ALRIGHT i might as well dump off stuff here, honestly i love art of any of my ocs, so if you feel like drawing any just pick whatever character is easiest for you to draw! i also like art for my ocs who aren't on toyhouse yet, since not having art at all is usually what pushes them to the bottom of my priority list. so many ocs i gotta make refs of, so little time...

anyway, hopefully i'll be able to get some doodles to everyone else in here at some point, too!

D'awww your art is adorable! 

 

And I don't mind if you put it on your DA, as long as you link to Inegmar's or my page as the oc owner or w/e

That's so adorable, thank you! I don't mind if you put it on your dA. A transparent background would be nice. :D

Looking For: Chibi and Icons (both 50x50 and 100x100), Full Body is fine too, but I prefer anime-style on all.
