    Any advice, people? I can't figure this out.
    If you post what you have, people could make some guesses for you.

    Kill the feather in the hat, replace the facial hair with stubble, the gun with a hip flask, and the axe with a trusty walking stick and you'll get what I'm aiming at. A middle aged, portly, weatherbeaten traveller. I'm thinking the pose should be him taking a drink from the hip flask.

    My sincere thanks to anyone who can make it. The raw talent on these forums astounds me.

    human or Dwarf? the image looks like a dwarf to me. I will give this a try, but would be happy seeing someone else's implementation as well.
    edit:
    Got bored and got done. Took some shortcuts because it sounded like you wanted a wanderer not a warrior. Let me know what you think.

    or with stubble instead of beard:

    OK, so new show, new avatar time:

    In keeping with my new theme of my avatar reflecting the show I'm working on, I want the Duke of Mantua, as depicted in Verdi's Rigoletto. A traditional costume (you'll see a bunch of different examples with a Google Image search). A look that suggests his usual brash overconfidence and/or sinister gloating would be fun. Or maybe a scene with him and either Gilda or Maddalena might be fun. I'll let interested artists see where the muse takes them.

    Turned out better in your mind than it did in mine. To answer the question though, a human that just happens to be stubby (dwarvish). So yes, your implementation was spot on. I think I might stick with the beard because it does seem to fit better, thanks for the extra mile there. Thanks again, may you ever be commenerated in my siggy as awesometastic.

    Alright, for my debut back on the forums, I'd like to request a simply avatar of one of my landmark characters.

    Simply: Blond, long hair, male, Caucasian, slasher smile, brown pants, blood spattered blue greatcoat, holding a knife in each hand.

    Stance, victim, whatever, improvise. I throw myself onto your grace.

    I have a request, if anyone would be so kind as to help me with it:

    I would like a Warforged Avatar, based off of a character I've used before, and will be reusing/reinventing in an upcoming game:

    I would like him to be wearing the Adamantine Body, with a Fullblade (Nothing says don't mess with me quite like a sharpened pool table), and hidden blades that are integrated into his plating (though not all need be visible).

    Another one, if the above-mentioned character isn't appealing to the artists on here, would be a Dragonborn Pally, much like the one appearing on the cover of RotD...actually, he looks exactly like him, axe included :)

    I know that this is a huge favor to ask, but I would appreciate any and all help. Unfortunately, my talent is not in this branch of artistry, my craft being the stage. Give me shakespeare, and I can give you a show, but give me a paintbrush, or the applications on the computer, and I'll stare at you with a lost look in my eyes.

    Thank you in advance for any and all help :)

    Width: 120
    Height: 120

    I have absolutely no idea of anything about this Duke fellow, so if there is anything that doesn't fit with what you want please don't hesitate to PM me with changes. I'll say that again in a few paragraphs.

    Because... even moderators get the ol' fashioned copy 'n paste avatar disclaimer:

    If you need a change of colors, please tell me what needs to be changed AND provide a color sample. My monitor casts everything several shades darker than other monitors, so what looks jet black to me is, in fact, mildly gray.

    If you choose to use the avatar please save it onto your own computer and upload it onto an image hosting site such as Photobucket or Picasa. Please do not link directly to my Photobucket account.

    When setting a custom avatar, don't forget to set a custom width and height. If you don't, the image will be skewed and ugly.

    Lastly, if you have any changes you would like made please PM me so we don't spam posts on this thread. Don't be shy about asking for changes or "nitpicking." It's your avatar - you should be happy with it.

    Well, it seems that my request is too much for the avatarists, so let me change it.

    Either something like this, but in blue and green

    OR

    This fella in Crimson and dark grey colors, and with a blade like this one (or if you wanna make it cooler, then this one).

    ( If you choose to make this guy, don't worry about making him 120 x 120, it can be bigger, I'l use it for sigatar.)

    I'm brand-spankin' new to this!

    But I'd really love an avatar of: half-elf rogue/ranger (standard D&D, bow-build ranger), dark brown hair, pale skin. She grew up a bit of an outcast & turned to thieving, then went ranger-y when she turned her life around & joined the army and is in a special forces unit. She's kinda saucy. Cha 12, 5'5", 110lbs...100x100pixels...umm...i don't know what else, but I really really appreciate it!

    Even though I have drawn several versions of this guy myself in awesome poses, I want to see how another OotS-atar-ist would interpret my concept.

    The Yellow Hunter!
    • Medium-light-ish build.
    • Lightly tanned complextion.
    • Wearing an unbuttoned, tan-colored leather trench coat with sleeves. And pants. Make sleeves and pants!
    • Wearing a light tan shirt. And a leather belt.
    • Tan leather shoes. Make 'em nondescript and simple.
    • A light tan fedora. Please, use as much detail as you want on this.
    • Wielding a rifle inscribed with magical runes along the edges. Very shiny.
    • Has two bags on belt, along with a potion, a small sickle, and a wand. Put them in that order, from left to right. Otherwise interpret as wanted.
    • In a standing, aiming position. Rifle obviously ready to fire.
    • Six magical symbols/runes/glyphs floating in an elliptical orbit around the Hunter.


    And that's it! Cookie for whoever takes it up, milk tea if they finish it well, and bonus gummy bears if they can get it close to what I have drawn in my notebook!

    Done, I sorta gotta carried away on the army bit there well..well..ok I did get quite carried away with the army part.. I originally intended her to be wearing clothes a bit more.. ranger'ish.. If you don't like the outfit though, I can change it in 10-15 mins tops same goes for any other changes so feel free to ask.

    The outfit is great! It is pretty army-ish...I dunno, maybe she needs a cloak or something, just so I don't forget it's D&D (and start talking about my half-elf having 'Nam flashbacks), or more hair or...I dunno. Looks great though, thanks a million!

    I agree... A full image of him would be cool, but it just wouldn't fit, really... Unfortunate. Still, looks pretty awesome so far, I appreciate it.

    Here's a moderately difficult challenge for anyone who cares to take it up. I want a three dimensional (appearing, not an eight direction rose, just a simple Cardinal Direction) compass rose (elaborately drawn might I add!) measuring 150x150 Pixels with Black, Red and White for the colorations.

    Who wants a cookie? I'm looking for a young adult human female, very long darkish-blond air with natural highlights, in a dark, dark green cloak with hood down. She carries a dagger. Her hair is partially covering her face, but you can mess with what her hair is covering. Many, many thanks + sig crediting + a cookie to any artist who will take this on!
