Not sloppy and somewhat professional?
And you still want _me_ to do that ;--D?

But seriously, there are two problems.
First: To stay fair, I technically cannot take requests into account before thursday, for obvious reasons.
Feel free to repost during te request time window, though :--)

Second:
Even if I go all out on optimism, I'm still an amateur.
I never learned the craft, so my technical knowledge of the matter is fueled by practice, guides and mostly trial and error.
What you want needs a different style of lining from what I (can) do now and coloring on top of it.
Both things I will at least try at some point anyway but never did up to now.
Don't want to **** and moan or anything, I just want to make clear what you'd be in for.

I know exactly what I am getting into.  I from what I have seen of your sketches...I fully trust in your abilities. So on Sept. 13th I will certainly repost!! 

[ashtrails]

That's it.
We're through with round one!
Some hearty cheers to the 5 brave souls giving me craploads of work, practice and a lot of fun and of course everybody who commented, clicked and all that!

I'm outta here, getting some sleep :--)

Well, its after 10AM CET. Hopefully the window's open now.

I was wondering if I could request a picture of one of the characters from my story: Jano'Yorish. He's a male Quarian Martial Artist.

Basically I just need a male Quarian doing something martial arts-y. Meditation, stretches, a high kick, a karate chop, I'm not fussy. As long as it says that this guy practices martial arts.

I hope this request is okay.

Many Thanks.

Since Wrex is in that, the idea is awesome, but as with Neofelis'  request I'm sure I wouldn't be up for that challenge, or it'd at least take me a considerable amount of time, due to background, specifics and such.
For comparison: 'Do Wrex, roughed up and badly injured with two pipes as weapons' is more of my league.

Awesome, do that

I wish I didn't **** up shepard's arm that badly though.
But that's what practice is for, right ;--)?

Well, technically, you were 4 hours early.
Since we're still not full, you'll get away with it, though :--D

So, one's still open, I'll get started anyway!

The Destiny Ascension blowing up a Reaper.

Since we have no idea how the Ascension fires its main gun, that leaves a lot up to your imagination

Would be cool if that thing could shoot beams out of that front hole the size of a regular small town...but I guess, after some research The Ascension just has a lot of weapons adding up to incredible firepower.

In sadder news, I can't do that.
I did a bit of 'research' and outlined a rough sketch for the sake of trying, but:
The ship's design is pretty dull, to be honest . The details come with proximity , which again is out of the question since the DA is so enormous.
She has about twice the lenght of a reaper and since that monstrous dreadnought is about as high as it's long (at least those 'fins' included) she would be dunno, 5 or 6 times 'higher'. A large scale fleet battle scene with the magic of coloring and lighting effects (which I cannot wield yet) on the other hand would be quite awesome.

So, yeah, please go for something else :--)

But there's also happy news:

My slacker days are over on Monday.
I return to my day job after a recreational break (that's optimist speak for 'unemployment'). That again means things may slow down a little.


cheers

This is supremely awesome. Thank you so much!

I'm gonna be giggling gleefully all evening now!

additional: I should probably ask first, is it okay for me to show this to my readers? I'll always link back to your page!

Hell it was about time.

Sorry for the delay, but my day job got the best of me.
It's a shock -kinda- for your body if you actually can't sleep till noon, get some breakfast and do whatever you want....

My best timeframe for drawing stuff usually was from roughlyx midnight till early morning hours, so, yeah, things do slow down now, but I hope to manage a faster pace than...12 days?! ****...

anyway:

[The SSV London SR0]

Could you sketch me some original ME characters. I young human male space prirate and a male asari space pirate. A side/3 quarter profile from the waist up.

1)Slots are filled.
If Edolix (who requested something I cannot do) doesn't come up with a new idea the time I'd start that piece, you're in.

2) Please, and I should probably put that into the guidelines, nothing too non-canony...canonical....well, nothing non-existing within the lore of the Mass Effect universe.
I could deal with a new type of husks or pictures showing alternatives to the known story (i.e. sexual orientation, people living who died etc, though I'm a bit reluctant about that, too).
It's just,...don't get me wrong, I know where people are coming from, but that's just not my kinda thing.
If there's a story, there's a story.
If I just make things up (for whatever reasons) I don't believe that would improve the story, but in fact take away from what we got.
Point being: there are no Asari 'males' (regarding appearence).

3) You might want to be a bit more specific if these are original characters, or you'll probably end up with a dreadlocked 20-something who got an eyepatch and cybernatic limbs, simply because I had no other instructions ;--)

[ashtrails]

Kind of an underhand dealing, going in here nonetheless:

http://ashtrails.dev...t.com/#/d5gszlq

And don't let the coloring give you any ideas...

;--)

[Versus Omnibus]

Can you make me a Brood Warrior Rachi with a gun-mount on it's back?

[Edolix]

^^ Let someone else take my slot ashtrails, if I come up with something else i'll slide back in at a later date

Also @SSVLondon: A male asari? Wut? o.0

'Nother one down.
http://ashtrails.dev...t.com/#/d5hb7wt

Not too happy with this one, sorry if I screwed up.
Tried differrent lining and ended up with this mess :--D

In other news:
I'm about to start the last piece (yeah, yeah, we're counting 4, but since I don't want to favor anybody I'll just close this round and live with it).

Next Round will start Thursday, October 11th at 10 AM CET

Please make sure to read the guidelines.
Also, since my dayjob feasts on my precious time, this will be a potrait round and there'll only be Three (3) slots-
Don't matter if crew or original character.!
Go ahead, take your pick..
Who do you wanna see up close?

[BarrelDrago]

see you the 11th =3

[ashtrails]

Alright, we're through!

Time to catch some sleep.
Employers like their drones well rested, I guess.

See you in the morrow! :--D

[MrStoob]

Damn, portraits? I wanted a Liara and Aria podium dancing for my FF (yes, yes they do). I'll keep an eye on for any future rounds

Great work Ashtrails
