Cori's Art (For Fun and Profit)

Recommended Posts

How do you do, fellow kids? I doubt many of you on here remember me. It's okay. I still love you and I forgive you.

I like to draw things, and I like to receive feedback on those things! This thread is going to be a general art thread, but I will also be taking requests (at my discretion) AND commissions! More information on that part can be found near the bottom of this post.

 

First off, some Q and A:
 

--Q: Is this an egg commission thread?

A: Part of it will be, yes! If you're interested in trading a dragon egg(s) for art, please read the Guidelines farther down.

--Q: What kind of requests can I make?

A: You can request anything, really, as long as it's a little more simple. I might be kind of picky about what I draw for free compared to what I'll draw for payment. If it's something too complicated or I don't really want to draw it, I probably wont. Don't take it personally if I decide to decline your request!

--Q: What do you draw?

A: I enjoy drawing a wide variety of subjects, from people to cartoons to animals to dragons to plants to anything in between. The only thing I'm a little shy about doing is mechanical or robotic stuff. I'm willing to try something along those lines, but y'all will have to bear with me on that.

--Q: Can you draw in _____ style?

A: I can try! No promises though.

--Q: Will you draw a background?

A: I can draw basic backgrounds for requests and such. Anything with a complex background would be something I'd rather take as a commission.

--Q: Art trade?

A: I might! PM me if you are interested.

--Q: Do you accept criticism?

A: Always! But if you want to give me criticism on a commission piece, please message me about it privately. I would welcome your input.

 

 

Okay, no more Q and A. Time for some basic COMMISSION RULES.

 

1: I will have THREE commission slots open at a time. If all of these slots are full, I will not take your submission. You'll have to wait until a slot opens to claim said slot. No backlogs, sorry--they're hard to keep track of (These slots are ONLY for egg commissions, not money commissions or requests).

 

2: Please adhere to the commission guidelines at the bottom of this post. If you offer me a common, sloppily-bred egg and ask for something really complicated in return, I'm probably not going to accept your submission.

 

3: I have a *cough*paypal*cough* if you want something outside the realms of what I'm offering here. I'd be overjoyed if someone liked my art enough to exchange money for that. PM me if you want to go that route and we can discuss terms.

 

4: This should go without saying, but I won't do anything that's inappropriate for this forum. If I'm uncomfortable with something you're asking me to do, I won't do it.

 

Finally, DON'T CLAIM OR REPOST MY ART AS YOUR OWN. DO NOT MODIFY MY ART IN ANY WAY WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. That INCLUDES cropping, erasing signatures and watermarks, or adding your own text.

 

 

COMMISSION INFO

 

The amount of time and detail I'm willing to put into a piece of art will depend on what you're willing to give me in exchange. You're free to try and negotiate if you think you have something I'll like, but my BASIC pricing will go a little something like this:

 

BASIC: A shaded graphite sketch, a digital character headshot, a 'chibi'. Coloring, if requested, will be a basic gradient map.

EGGS/HATCHLINGS: Uncommons, including 'hybrid' species and alts. This does not include Nebulas, as I have way too many Nebulas. Nebulas out the wazoo. I don't want any more Nebulas!

 

ADVANCED: An inked and colored drawing, traditional or digital. Full-body character. More than one subject (NO MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE/DRAGONS/WHATEVER. If you want more than two subjects in a single drawing I will ask for more eggs).

EGGS/HATCHLINGS: Rares. Metallics, unbreedables, trios, and holidays. CB new releases will also count here (I'd love to get my hands on some Zyumorphs or some of the new hybrid dragons!!).

 

I'm not typically interested in common dragons, but if you've got one with a nice lineage you're welcome to haggle with me.

 

In order to submit your commission request, I will need the following information:

 

USERNAME: For cataloguing purposes.

BASIC/ADVANCED: This tells me how much work you're asking from me and what you're planning to offer as payment.

DIGITAL/TRADITIONAL: This tells me what techniques you want me to use.

TYPE: Sketch, headshot, full-body, chibi, etc etc.

SUBJECT: Tell me what you want me to draw--a pet, a person, a rock, etc. Please be as detailed as possible. Give me color schemes, poses, expressions--whatever you need to specify for the drawing you want.

OTHER: If there's anything else you want me to include in the drawing, mention it here. I will only do simple backgrounds for most commissions--if you want something more complex, I will ask for more in return.

PAYMENT: Tell me what you would like to offer in exchange for my services.

 

Here's the submission code to copy and paste into a new post:

Nothing finished to show in this thread yet (hint hint!), but here's a WIP of a commission I'm drawing for someone of their WoW character.

I loved getting art from you! Any particular dragons you're looking for? Like specific breeds?

Thank you for your kind words smile.gif

 

As far as specific dragons go, I'd like to eventually get my hands on some Zyumorphs. I haven't had much luck nabbing those. Fire Gems, Xenowyrms and Storm-Riders would be nice too. I'm always looking for rare stuff--but as far as Uncommons are concerned, anything goes really. The only thing I don't want more of are Nebulas. I'm always grabbing Nebula eggs by accident.

 

 

 

 

 

I have some art to drop here in the thread: a finished commission from an acquaintance who wanted me to draw their angry little WoW goblin:

Thank you!

Also,

YOOOOO I DIDN'T KNOW WE COULD CHANGE OUR FORUM NAMES NOW?! I'm going to be doing that. I don't even remember the reason I picked the username Jackal when I first joined this forum, but I'm gonna start going by Cori instead. Which is...the name I use for everything else.

So I'm gonna update this thread to reflect that. Jackal's art --> Cori's art.

Question! Are you looking for CB zyus? Or could I offer 2nd gens? I haven't seen a CB one in forever.

Yeah, bred eggs are totally fine! CB is nice but when some dragons are harder to find that's not always doable.
