Doin' some good old requests.

[Swanwig]

I was going to do this in my main thread, and then realized it wasn't going to work, and was a bad idea to put in the main thread anyway. Note this is not a 'let's-all-pitch-in-with-our-crappy-mspa intings', it's a specific tool for me to get experience in drawing things I am not used to.

So this is how it's going to go down;

Basically one of you will say:

"Excuse me, Swanwig, I have a potential request you may draw if you wish;

A duck, standing on an upside down earth where the only discernible features are Australia, New Zealand and MAYBE India. An arrow, pointing to aforementioned duck, emblazoned with the noble word "DUCK".
Oh, and could you find it within your kindness to possibly ensure that it's poorly and hastily drawn in MSPaint, as this is merely an example?

Sincerely, ForumGuy267"

And then I will reply with something along the lines of;

"Thank you for your input, ForumGuy267, I have indeed chosen to complete your request. The results should be up promptly."

or

"Thank you for your input, ForumGuy267, I haven't chosen to complete your request. The results shouldn't be up promptly."

or

I'll just ignore you.

Varying upon which answer you were given, I may or may not post again with something similar to:

"Good Evening, ForumGuy267, I have completed your requested piece and have posted it with this message."

So this is like BizarroJoe's whore for a day?
Er.... Draw me a ninja turtle fighting a power ranger

Verily, ForumGuy8 (If that is your real name, which it isn't), I shall draw thee thine sharks. It shall on ye olde paper, so it may take me many a year to journey to yonder scanner, BUT I WILL FINISH THE QUEST

[GrumpyTom]

Draw me a Pirate hiding amongst loads of Ninjas.

plz

In b4 flooded with requests.

Also: Request update.

Because sharks wrestling would just look like they're hugging or something, I instead have a shark wearing a ninja headband about to kick a power ranger's ass ('cause power rangers SUCK). And they're on a skyscraper.

So your changing the request?

your missing the point of your own thread?

I say, I SAY,

Excuuuuuse me my dear man. But I have heeeeard that you are taking requests for arts.

Well, sir, I do believe I have a potential request for you.

I request that you draw a man on fire with black hair, running screaming into a crowd of wizards, who are playing poker, and none of them are wearing shoes (very important!). Also, one of the wizards has George Clooney's head, and he's giving a thumbs up while doing a little half-smile. Also, there is an elephant in the room and he's doing something crazy, like horseback riding.

It will be very deep.

1. It's spelled *you're*. C'mon people.
2. The point of my thread is to draw stuff I don't usually draw.
3. I'm changing it to make it more AWESOME, what's the problem? (There isn't one, because it's AWESOME)

Sirrah, I shall take thee up on thy request, as soon as I finish cleaning my current image.

no, the point of your thread is to draw requests. do you usually draw two sharks that are wrestling, no? then don't hide away your incapability of drawing such a thing if that's your 'point' of the thread, what you don't do is alter the requests just because it's more convenient for you to draw.

[Swanwig]

Cleaning this was going to be a bitch, so I did it the lazy way, enjoy the extreme lack of detail.

Well, I usually don't draw a ninja shark about to destroy a power ranger either. My reason for changing it is because two sharks hugging each other (because that's what it would've looked like) would not have been what the requester had in mind (They had something far more awesome in mind). Plus, I got to blend the first two requests into one. If you honestly DEMAND that I draw the sharks wrestling, then I'll do it after this request - which could be a while (Drawing wizard george clooney is a little awkward)

[Swanwig]

Well, I've lost my will to draw + going to sleep. The base sketch for the guy on fire running through the crowd of wizards etc is about half done. I'll probably finish (Nicer than the shark/power ranger one) and post it tomorrow.
