I could use some help. It's along the lines of my avatar, a flickering Helghast, just a different image.



Again, I'd like the eyes and the trails of light leading from the eyes to remain illuminated while everything else fades to black. PM me with any other questions
I'll take this.

Sorry for the absence, Trivun. I've been so short on motivation for anything lately I didn't even look in. But, I'll try this out.

If I could take time away from my client projects I'd be all over this, but I just can't right now. I like doing custom stuff for people, but I do this for a living so it wouldn't be free.

Lotsa cut & paste stuff going on so far, not really impressed by anything yet...

Hence the difference in quality. If the others here are anything like me, they're fitting this in between a lot of other things and don't have any proper experience. And lets face it, if it's not your job it's not going to be a top priority.

This is too small to use as a background (I was just messing about). I've got free time so I might have a crack at some requests tomorrow.

No problem :). I've updated the OP anyway, I'm going to try and keep on top of that now and try to make it easier continuously for artists and requesters (no, that probably isn't a real word) to use the thread.

just need some more to do now :p
Well, the Current Projects section has details of all projects currently being worked on or awaiting an artist, so anything new will go up on there. Saves you and everyone else from having to continuously scour the thread to find requests, so I just have to check back here every so often to see if any more requests have been made...

By the way, I changed my own wallpaper recently:


Of course, I'm still after the ensemble picture from my previous request, as detailed in an earlier post... :)

Ok, this is an improved version of the last thing I posted. This one is 640x400, and has a different fractal pattern. I also edited the lighting a tad and decided not to add a border.

But yeah, spare time today, if I get around to it, I might be helpful for a change.

If you don't mind me saying, I actually prefer this one to the other, older one. True, the other one was still really good. However, this one just looks more streamlined, if that makes sense. The lack of a border looks much nicer, and having a different pattern and keeping it to one side makes it look a lot less cluttered, which works really well. Very nice piece of work :).

Agreed, I'd love to do work of that quality too but I don't have the right programs or anything to do so. Love to know how it was done... :)

So you're taking commissions? I 'm going to have to go find some images, see if someone can't make me a nice new background. Will edit this post when I know what i want.

Ok, is it possible to get a collection of some of my favourite anime charcters, sort of a cheerful background

I would quite like these (If the pictures aren't very good to use, I can find new ones. A nice cherry blossom backdrop or something like that would be good, but I don't really mind. As for the arrangement of characters, that doesn't matter either, whatever the creator thinks best. Thanks if someone can take it on.

Here's Red.

My only problems in this one seem to have been the left arm and left foot.
I hate drawing hands.
And I don't think she's gothic enough.

Very nice :). You have a point about it not being very gothic, but I'm not one to nitpick, and I really like that :D. Muchos Gracias and all that jazz...

I'll take this up, shouldn't take me very long at all :D. Expect it done by the end of tomorrow, at the latest (though it may be quite late tomorrow night since I have various things on, and a friend's birthday). Either way, Thursday morning is the very latest that it'll be complete by :D.

Good idea. If people would like, I can do black and white drawings for them. My Photoshop skills are decent enough, but I'm quite capable of drawing desktop-sized images. Theoretically I could color them properly as well, but it takes too damn long. So if anyone's interested in any sort of large black and white drawing for their wallpaper, let me know. I'll see what I can do :D

Brilliant, thanks :D. I'm about to edit the OP anyway, so shall I add you to the main list of people who want to help while I'm at it?

EDIT: Oh, by the way, there is someone who's requested a drawing as their wallpaper. BillyShakes is after a Billy Joel portrait, in pen and ink, so would you be able to cover that for him? No worries if you can't, but it would be a great help, and thanks again for the support :D.

Yes, please do! I'll try to keep track of the requests on this thread. And I'll see what I can do about that BJ portrait.

Thanks :D. And whenever any changes are made, like new requests or completed pictures, I'll add them to the OP anyway, so really you should just keep an eye on that. Makes my life more interesting keeping track of things, and keeps the thread tidier and easier to navigate :).
