    Link me to pictures of the artists and the guitars, and I'll give it my best shot.

    Awesome, thanks.

    OK - Santana here: 1, 2, 3

    Hendrix: 1, 2, 3

    Hendrix' Strat: 1 - it's a normal stratocaster, but as he was left handed, he restrunng it and played it upside down.

    Satriani: 1, 2, 3

    Satriani's Ibanez: 1

    Van Halen: 1, 2, 3

    Van Halen's Frankenstrat: 1

    So yeah, I hope that helps - There weren't many good colour ones of Hendrix, but I really hope you knew what he looked like anyway ...
    Like I said, they don't have to be 100% accurate - just recognisable. They've all got distinct features - Carlos' hair, stache', and hat; Hendrix' afro; Satriani's baldness and shades; and Van Halens' hair.

    Greetings masterful artists! It is high time that I obtain a new avatar and my newest character is the perfect candidate.

    The character is in a Pathfinder RPG game and is a Gnome Sorcerer with the Elemental [cold] bloodline. His best skill and greatest asset to the party is Preform Clogging. So, I would like a Gnome clogger in mid-dance (he clogs everywhere and never refers to walking or running, only clogging places). He has insanely long eyebrows like the pathfinder gnome art (see below) and wears some sort of flowing robes or other outfit which is blue and white, possibly some snowflake designs in it if you want to put in a lot of detail. His hair is a bright blue, as are his eyebrows and eyes. He never washes, combs or cuts his hair and it should be very long and unkempt.

    Pathfinder Art reference:

    First things first, sorry for the really belated response. I have been at my mother's house for a week and a half, which means no internet. And when I came back a couple days ago, I had kinda forgotten at first. Sorry

    Anyway, as to the avatar... sorry, but it seems to be just a tad... off. I dunno, I'm not feeling the mood of it, so to speak. If you would be willing to give it a second try (the last thing I'd want would be to bother you, after already proving so much of a hassle - I'll just repost and ask someone else if you don't want to do it), I'm thinking having her look directly at the "camera" instead of having her sideways and having the gesture feel a bit more dangerous (a more pronounced , so to speak) would help the feel - Remilia is scary not because of an imposing physical presence (that she doesn't really have) or sheer power (which is more province of her sis, Flandre), but because she is the one in control, period, and she knows it.

    Also, the spear seems not be necessary despite what I thought, as it seems to clog the picture more than contribute to it, and instead having her sitting in something more elaborate (after all, for Remilia, even the tables are baroquely ornated, and that was kinda what I was picturing - sorry for not being specific enough. If not, the throne is always a possibility). Do keep the glass, tho - that was a nice touch .

    Hey, now that I mentioned Flan, I hadn't thought about it, but having both Scarlets in the same picture would be really awesome and having a double-avatar would greatly fit my bipolarity. But I'm pretty sure they wouldn't fit in the avatar box... mmmm, I think I'll ask for a sigbanner later to replace the Disgaea one I'm wearing as of now - I'm having a fun idea... .

    It's fine Drascin, I'll do the request and I'll do the sigbanner as well If you want. I'll try and get the avatar done for today/tonight but it may only be finished by tomorrow. After looking at the avatar now, I think the pose looks a bit wooden to be honest, also my arts upgraded a bit.

    In conclusion, I'm on the case!!!

    If I may request something?

    A ferret avatar, preferably wearing a wide straw hat(not Japanese) and doing something cute.
    A brown/black coloration with a white face and dark thin circles of fur around the eyes(reminiscent of glasses).

    Thank you.

    Here's another attempt at the avatar, if you want any changes or totally redone just tell me. It's fine if you want someone else to do it as well.

    (97x120)

    So do you want the sigbanner to be made?


    @Wadledo, I'll try yours if no one else is going to make it, in other words I'll do it but if anyone beats me to it thats fine.

    EDIT:Wadledo, I tried doing your request but it was hard and I didn't know how to make him cute so i had the weird compulsion to give him a pipe, you probably won't like it so I'll be happy to change it. Credit me if you use it.

    He looks a bit tall, could you make him a bit shorter? And the eyebrows could be a bit longer, thanks. The clogging looks fine as it is, but if you can't make him clog and shorter, just make him standing and it should be fine.

    Ohhh... this is looking much better. I'd only make a couple very small changes: turn the smile to the other side, so the slant and the protruding fang are in the same side (dunno why, but it looks a tad offputting as is); make the skin just a smidge less pale - she's a bit white (sun is bad, after all), but been credited with being perfectly able to pass for a normal human and stroll around human villages without anyone raising an eyebrow at anything other than the umbrella, so she obviously doesn't have the standard leukemia vampire skin ; and have the blood in the glass be a tad less dark/more visible, because as is it's hard to notice it if you don't know it's there, due to meshing with the throne's back.

    Other than that, loving it.

    About the sigbanner... as said, I'm having an idea for the cast of a banner, sparked by Flan, but I'm still thinking about who should be there. Give me a little time and I'll get back to you .

    Alright, take as much time as you need, here's the slightly altered version of the avatar. I originally took the skin colour from the reference picture but now I've made the OOTS colour slightly pale.

    (97x120)

    The Gremlin, is it just an undead cat you want because I haven't seen Buffy in ages so I don't know but I may try to do this request.

    EDIT: The skin looks a bit yellow but it didn't in Inkscape.

    Yep, that should do it alright. Yay for AntiVillain Magnificent Bastard chibi-vampires . Many thanks!

    I've hotlinked it from your link for now to try it - I'll host it in my photobucket account when my computer decides to stop being stupid. And of course, I've already credited you for it in my sig ^^.

    Okay, I won't delete it anyway most likely. When you've decided on what you want for the banner you can PM me or just post it here and I'll do it.

    btw, why in your sig does it say Oslecamo or some-such?

    Short explanation? I'm an idiot. I was replying to another thread at the same time, so I got the usernames mixed up (Oslecamo is another Playgrounder). I really need to learn to multitask better. Sorry.

    Some time ago I've asked here for someone to remake an avatar I made into something better. Dallas-Dakota was kind enough to grant the request. However, I'm afraid he made it look too close to the original, which I'm less than happy about. Here's the original:


    I'd like someone to remake it to look more three-dimensional and real without sticking to what I made except for general idea of what the avatar pictures. Also, I'd like the goblin to wear a backpack, something I've been unable to add to my avatar.
    Thanks in advance.

    The Gremlin, is it just an undead cat you want because I haven't seen Buffy in ages so I don't know but I may try to do this request.
    Basically, yes. A long-hair, black-ish zombie cat with green eyes.
